If true, then we need to absolutely gut the public education system. Do away with unions, and anyone that doesn’t appreciate someone else’s beliefs, with regards to religion, then perhaps they need to seek out another nation to live.
So many government employees need an education on what our rights are. I see far too many videos of teachers, police, school boards, etc. that seem to believe they’re our overlords and they’ll decide when they’ll honor our RIGHTS.
In this instance, this graduation speech is the voice of the student - not an official position of the school...but the school believes it has the right to police the speech. They don’t. They are government, we the people are free to speak at public events & meetings. He could say negative things about the teachers and principle if desired. Same with school boards, they think they can cut off people saying something they don’t like.
