Don't call me names. At least not that one.

For calling you names, especially that one, I apologize. However, the Cobb Co. school district does not have the time nore the budget that the ACLU does to continue with this case. That is exactly what the ACLU is counting on when they bring their lawsuits. The taxpayer is actually inadvertently helping to fund the ACLU through court settlements.

The taxpayer can fund legal defense forever, and we routinely do in MANY cases.

The fact is that this lawsuit was going to be a loser for them under current constitutional law, and it wasn't a particularly good fact scenario to attempt to overturn constitutional law.

They did give taxpayers a break by not continuing to fight it further, but it's wrong to characterize as it a case where they ran out of money. They didn't.
