“Oneida High School cheerleaders were upset that the school chose to ban prayer at their games, so they decided to pray on their own”
That school is the people’s school. It’s good to see the kids remembering this fact and enforcing their rights.
Tar and feathers would be sufficient.
There is a crossroads in South Carolina called “Canadys”, which must have been `Canady’s Crossroads’ at one time. Nothing there but a general store & gas station. A stop on the way to Savannah before interstates came along.
All it takes is a little guts. It seems the women, Pam Geller, Sarah Palin, the female cheerleading squad get it.

Few conservatives, even here on Free Republic, understand that government schooling and the First Amendment and freedom of conscience are ( and always will be) in conflict. Why?
Answer: Because it is **impossible** to have a religiously, politically, and culturally neutral education. Such a state of philosophic neutrality can not exist in the mind of any sentient human.
Answer: The worldview of the most politically powerful will be imposed on the children who are under police threat to attend the government school.
There is only one solution: Begin the process of privatizing all schooling. The ultimate goal must be complete separation of SCHOOL and state!
. The State cannot tell my little girl she cannot pray.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The state does this every day in every government school. Speech , free expression of religious belief, press, and assembly are severely regulated in all government K-12 schools. Children in the government’s K-12 socialist-entitlement schools in some ways have fewer First Amendment freedoms than prisoners in prison.
When articles like this are published, few conservatives, even here on Free Republic, recognize the fundamental problem with compulsory K-12 socialist-entitlement schooling.
The Problem: Compulsory schooling and government regulated, owned, and run K-12 schooling is fundamentally a First Amendment and freedom of conscience abomination!. This is true for the student who is under police threat to attend, and the taxpayer who faces court and police action if the refuse to fund it.
Solution: Begin the process of privatizing all schooling in the nation. Work toward complete separation of **school** and state.
That school is the people’s school.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The “people’s” school? Is that like the People’s Republic of China? Or...The People’s Republic of Korea?
Just wondering?
These young ladies, and others like them, give me hope.
“Just wondering?”
The People. We The People.
When men fail at their leadership roles, some good women will occasionally step up and shoulder the load. God bless them.
Government schooling is fundamentally a price-fixed, single-payer, compulsory-use, compulsory-funded, and monopoly provider socialist-entitlement.
In many ways it deserves to be called the people's schools in the same way China and Korea are “People's Republics”.
Fundamentally, the government schools can not accommodate both religious worldviews ( godless and God-centered).
Fundamentally, government schooling is a First Amendment and freedom of conscience abomination.
You are an adult, they are kids - their whole lives revolve around school. Give them a break, at least they are doing something besides claiming moral superiority on line.
Sexton must have gone to a liberal law retreat.She could have saved the district money and contacted Liberty Counsel or Liberty Institute and learned the actual law.
Keep the cheerleaders, fire the administration.
Thanks marjiwoj.
Give me a break. I'm talking to you, not them.
They did good, I've never said otherwise. What I said was it was not brave. They are good kids so what they did was easy: They followed their conscience. Sorry if I was not clear or still not clear.
