I believe this was from a year ago. Good that it happened at all. I could not make out anything she was saying though, not with all the fuzzy echoes.

“God bless this young lady for her courage and faith.”
Not taking anything away from her, she did good... But where is courage involved here? WTH are they going to do about it? She can and should say anything she darn well wants to.
Isn’t that guaranteed by our constitution?

To: babygene
I think it took courage to go against the District. They could have retaliated and not given her a diploma.

Her name is now on file. The socialists do not like free thought.

Leftists do not get it.
The state cannot respect an establishment of religion.
The PEOPLE are under no such restrictions.
This girl is not the state.
End of discussion.
