Violence? Because you disagree with them? That really makes it clear why the coach should not be doing this. They say they were invited to do this. And one of the bottom lines for freedom is so clear. It is trivial to support someone’s freedom of speech if you agree with them. The real test of freedom is to defend someone you disagree with.

I don’t care if a student wants to pray in the end zone and find a finger pointed upward after a TD is not a personal foul. But teachers should not be leading prayers. Not at school functions and not in class. And not of any religion.

So the only real question is still do you believe in free exercise of religion when someone you disagree with wants to exercise it? The coach opened the door...
