Today in America's public schools, you can talk about the importance of "homosexual love", but you can't perform the music of your choice. The Republic is lost.
This is why unfortunately we need to kill public education in this country. I know that ALL the Founders favored public education, but apparently they never envisioned this crap.
You only have free speech in this country if you’re a left-wing flag-burning homosexual pornographer.
“The federal courts threw out the lawsuit, with judges saying it was reasonable for a school official to prohibit the performance of an obviously religious piece.”
Then I guess they better not play any Bach, Brahms, etc.
Eediots.
Some of the Democrats among the high school faculty would no doubt be traumatized by an instrumental version of “Ave Maria”. Democrats are highly sensitive, doncha know? They’re also apparently hard of hearing, because they’re incapable of hearing the public.
I like Ave Maria...
Its a beautiful peice of music...
Why the STUDENT at a STUDENT event could not showcase her own talent and bless the other students and the audience is unConstitutional...
I thought the idea was to let the children have “rights” ???
Well, since you have given up.. over some student "music"..
Will you post pix of yourself laying down in defeat over this terrible tragedy?
Yet another student can sue over a lesbian date at the prom.
She should play it anyway. Let’em cut her mic ... drag her out.
Great publicity for public education. ;o)
The State of Washington clearly lacks members of the bar who are conservative and have any familiarity with classical music.
There is no "instrumental version" of Ave Maria.
The music is Ellens dritter Gesang III (Ellen's Third Song) composed by Franz Schubert in 1825 as a setting of a song from Walter Scott's epic poem, The Lady of the Lake.
Kathryn Nurre should have asked to been placed on the graduation program in 2006 to perform Schubert's Ellens dritter Gesang III. Her attorney should have been primed to capture the evidence when school officials demonstrated their cultural ignorance and religious bias by objecting to the performance.
I am certain that Miss Nurre would have been a superb witness and made a compelling case on the stand proving the severe emotional distress imposed by the manifestly ignorant, malicious, and incompetent school administrators.
Any attorney who did not simply send away two box tops and $0.50 for his or her law degree should have been able to make each and every school administrator who acted or complained about Schubert's masterpiece as so ably performed by Miss Nurre, unemployed and unemployable; after seizing all of their assets on behalf of Miss Nurre (while keeping at least one-third for their own efforts.)
If said attorney was at all competent, the school officials could probably have been made to function as a private network of ATMs on behalf of Miss Nurre for the rest of their lives.
When your enemies insist on seizing and holding the ground in a "kill box," I've never understood the charm of just lobbing in a few rounds of Dual Purpose Improved Conventional Munition (DPICM). Instead, start with the thermonuclear rounds and escalate from there. The results are much more satisfying and effective.
The failure mechanism is likely to be related to that in Durham, NC in 2006 of at least one competent attorney to reduce Mike Nifong, President Brodhead and the Gang of 88 from Duke University to the equivalent of a lifetime of indentured financial servitude to the Evans, Seligmen, and Finnerty families.
Conservatives never fail to miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity to bring real hope and change to our liberal brethren while at the same time providing them a valuable and lasting lesson in truth and reality. We must do better in the future.
