Another example of how tolerant the left is.
Excellent graphic by the way.

(However, before she could get to the part that meant the most to her, Christ, her microphone went dead.)



I would have moved from behind the podium and yelled the rest of the speech at the top of my lungs.

There is. The were not forced to stay there. If there was a speech about the wonderful affects of porn on our society, I as a Christian would have gottne up and left.

Ha! You've gotta be kidding. There is no right not to bibled at, only the right for that person to walk away and not listen.

Wish she would have just pulled out a bullhorn and continued on.

I would have paid money to see that.

You mean a right not to be exposed to views with which you disagree?

Only in a liberal's wet dream.

I'm often an unwilling listener to speech in the public forum. No wait, I guess I am willing, as I don't get up and leave.

While your desire to be unbibled at presently will be followed by dhimmitude or death as an apostate at the hands of Islam

It is amazing what the ACLU does. If she did a speech that was either blasphemous, degenerate, senseless, sickening, traitorous or defamatory, the ACLU would be screaming for her right to "free speech." It is only when Christianity is mentioned in a positive light do they scream.

Thus, I can only conclude that the ACLU is satanic.

Totally stupid!

It is ok to prevent the teachers and school officials from promoting a relgion, but to prevent the students from speaking about their religion is totally idiotic and wrong, has no basis in law.

I would bet money... if the references would have been of mohammed and islam, there would have been more mics than one and those mics would not have been turned off.

...sorry but, that's the "invisible" part of the First Amendment. You must be hallucinating.
