Public School Principal Berates Christian Student; Calls the Bible a “Work of Fiction” and says
constitution.com ^ | April 28, 2017 | Onan Coca

Posted on 04/29/2017 9:26:32 AM PDT by lowbridge

Zach Ruff is an assistant principal in Downington, Pennsylvania and he really doesn’t like people who are pro-life, or Christian. Like, not at all.

On Wednesday, one of Ruff’s students, 16-year old Conner Haines, decided to express his opinion that abortion was wrong on the PUBLIC sidewalk that runs in front of his High School. Conner was joined by his 19-year old sister and the two held pro-life signs while telling passers-by that abortion was a murder but that they could find forgiveness in Jesus. Soon after they began their completely legal demonstration, Ruff appeared and the situation immediately grew ugly.

When Ruff arrives on the scene he tells them that they must leave or he will call the police. When young Conner replies that the sidewalk is public property and that he has every right to be there and then encourages Ruff to contact the police, Ruff turns to acting as a living wall and stands between the young protester and those passing by.

When Conner tells Ruff that the babies being aborted are “image bearers” of God, the principal tells the young man that he “can go to hell, where they are, too.” Think about that, a public school official just told one of his students that he can “go to hell” while also insinuating that the murdered children are also in hell. Does that sound like the kind of thing a man in his position should say? Does this sound like the kind of man that should be in authority over our children?

The two eventually debate the personhood of the unborn children with Ruff arguing that preborn babies aren’t children, they’re just “cells.” Ruff then adds that Conner is at a “science” based school, so he should believe in science.

He was on school time and acting in his administrative capacity. The kids were not in school. Needs firing, made an example of.

I, personally don’t like it, but the people do. OI know that the people approve of and like it because each election they put people in public office that advocate for this crap. And once in office, like bad lawn grass, they smother out the good lawn grass until there is only them. The people now have the degenerates and perverts firmly ensconced, next the degenerates and perverts will start settling muslims in positions of power. But that is what makes the sheep happy, therefore so be it.

I believe America went weak on God for a long time. I am seeing signs of a turning tide.

I didn’t say it was, I’m saying if someone steps up in that situation and kicks that guys ass while him and the kid are going at it the entire story line goes from “kid being harassed by lefttard administrator” to “evil right wingers beat down humble assistant principle”.

You don’t get that? C’mon HTR you’re the dang rocket scientist in these discussions!

If the situation ends with the conservative individual in these situations looking calm and reasoned and the statist scum looking like freedom hating douchebags it’s a win.

at what point, including the ending of the video, did your above depiction not occur...you appear to be arguing against a situation that did not actually happen...

Which is a no-no. Now maybe he will quit in disgust.

You lumped the legitimate with the illegitimate and you know it. You can’t bamboozle a Godneck.

all of your above quote is moot, if the administrator makes an aggressive move toward the student; which apparently he was on the verge of doing...

Good point too. Citizen self defense makes sense.

Yet they love the Iliad and Odyssey, Aesop’s fables. Yet, the Bible, that three thousand year old book still scares them spitless.

Agreed. And I love seeing the conservative side going into “we’re tired of this shit” mode out here in CA. So far the left is showing itself to be all sound and fury and little bite. It’d be nice if it stays that way but at some point someone is probably going to step way over the line and it should definitely be them first because you know that our side is going to dig into that bag of America that produces things like Normandy and Iwo Jima and the left will be thinking “oh, maybe we shouldn’t have pee’d on the sleeping dragons face”...

Huh? I didn’t see that, or intend it. If so I stand corrected.

My very first thought when I saw this, “I bet that guy is a homosexual”. You can almost always tell how the homosexuals are so over the top with their hatred and viciousness. It’s plain as day.

I am sometimes annoyed to see evil wishes excused on FR. One example was that sodomy was wished on one of the violent Antifa crowd in Berkeley. Happily this has not translated into any mob action... Yet.

I think you saw both as derailing your chosen denouement. However God has several possible righteous denouements.

I would rather deal with frank hatred than deceitful images of love.

This is what happens when liberals work their way into control of our schools. They are sick people who should not be trusted to do anything more than dig ditches let alone be in charge of our children’s education.
