"And you have no problem with leftist teachers indoctrinating students with communist ideologies and posting the photos of Cuban commie leaders while trashing the photo of the president? That's the issue, not the cop."

Did I say that? I did not. As I understand it, these were student-done images, not done by the teacher. I disagree with them, but that does not make them a police matter. You seem to misunderstand some of the rights we have. Freedom of speech does not mean just speech you happen to agree with. If you don't protect freedoms for people with whom you disagree, you have no freedoms yourself.

Then why don't we have prayer in schools? We should, using your logic. A public school is a public place. If people want to put that stuff up, then the public has a right to know about it and determine if that's appropriate for a public place.

Let's suppose that the cop was a flaming lib and the teacher was a conservative that had posters on his wall praising Thatcher, Reagan and William F. Buckley. Suppose that the students made projects extolling the virtues of GWB. If the cop got into the classroom to snap pics, we would be P.O.'s BIG TIME.

I disagree with them, but that does not make them a police matter.

The fact that the man who snapped the pictures was a cop is immaterial to the discussion. He is a citizen with rights, too, and as far as I am aware this is not a 'police matter' at all.
