Student Denied Free Speech Rights by Homosexual Activist Teacher
Defend Christians.org ^ | December 7, 2010

Posted on 12/07/2010 9:11:22 AM PST by wmfights

Daniel Glowacki, a student at a Michigan high school, has found himself at the center of a national controversy.

Recently his economics teacher, Jay McDowell, wore a t-shirt printed by a homosexual group. When the teacher demanded another student remove his confederate flag belt buckle, Daniel pointed out it was hypocritical for the teacher to wear a shirt with a message, and not let the student wear his buckle.

Then the teacher asked Daniel if he agreed with his shirt. Daniel replied he didn’t because of his faith. The teacher then kicked Daniel out of class while screaming he was a racist.

The teacher did receive a two-day suspension, but now Daniel has become the target of angry homosexuals, including Ellen DeGeneres.

he wasn’t just denied freedom of speech but he was denied freedom of thought and belief.

That is perhaps why our founders referred to a natural right to “freedom of conscience” that included thought, belief, AND speech.

Don't forget the most important part of this article:

TAKE ACTION:

Contact the Superintendent of Howell High School, Ronald Wilson, and demand that Jay McDowell be fired for his outrageous and discriminatory behavior.

This is what happens when Gay Fascists are given the power over other individuals (in this case the student).

The right thing to do would have been for the teacher to 1) either allow both the confederate flag belt buckle, and his shirt (probably the best option seeing as how we have a 1st Amendment in this nation) or 2) Not allowing either the belt buckle or his tee-shirt.

Most sane indidivudals recognize that there are people in this society who they disagree with and discuss in a civil way, not throw a temper tantrum like two year olds. Reminds me once again why I see liberals sometimes a “little children” who have bad attitudes and I wish they would “just grow up”!

So now it’s “racist” to not approve of buttsecks? Since when were sodomites classified as a race?

This is a serious issue, but that statement is just plain funny.

This isn’t a free speech issue (for what its worth, public school students don’t have free speech rights), it is a free expression of religion issue.

The boy was publicly chastized for his faith by some evangelical homosexual teacher. He was thrown out of class for a failure to conform his religious beliefs to that of the teacher. If a Christian teacher had similarly called-out a muslim student or a gay student, there’s no way he’d have gotten off with only a two day suspension. He should’ve been fired.

Stay strong, son.

Great point!

FWIW, I think we need to learn from these things that if we are present any time a Christian stands up for their faith we need to stand up with them. The radical left picks us off one by one because we aren't strong enough in our support.

They don’t demand to be counted in the Census because the truth about their numbers would be known.

The degenerate single handedly ruined American Idol.

She made openly sexually suggestive comments to the contestants and generally acted like the ass she is.

What’s the homosexual teacher doing staring at an underage boy’s crotch region anyway?

The kid’s parents should call the cops on this predator

The Washington Examiner printed a letter of mine a couple of weeks ago where I point out that religious speech is speech and should be treated as such.

If a school kid can sing a pop song they should be able to sing a religious one. If you can wear a t-shirt with a slogan, then a religious slogan should be considered the same way.

...
A middle school can kick a girl off the cheerleading squad because she doesn’t want to do a bootycall dance to dirty rap music?

We allow homosexual activists to be our school teachers,and then complain because they act like what they are.
Irrational.

I didn’t know that homosexuals were a “race”.
