If you believe in God {of the Bible}, then you know that He gave mankind no rights. As our Founders put it....."Our Creator has endowed {gifted} us with certain inalienable {not from man, therefore man does not have the right to take away} rights; among these the right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."

The godless Left, whose worldview is premised on the mythological notion that "nonlife-bearing matter is all there is" {matter is the 'first principle"/ creator of man}, believe therefore that 'man is all there is". Or more precisely, "force of power" is all there is.

Since their worldview is premised upon all things which are oppositional/contrary to the Creator-based worldview, then they must take the stance that there is no fixed gender, as stated by God. Instead, they believe there are numerous 'fluid sexual orientations' which man can freely move into and out of in pursuit of sexual fulfillment {Queer Theory} which they view as a human right.

Keeping in mind what they "believe" {by blind faith} to be true {their worldview}, we can expect that the homosexual rights agenda is but the opening gambit in their pursuit of complete sexual license and the degendering of mankind. And as the war between these two antithetical worldviews intensifies, we on the Right can expect that as the godless Left becomes more frustrated by the strategic counter-moves of the Right, the Left may well begin to actualize the "force by power" notion.

It is time to be ACTIVELY agaisnt the ACLU and its minions the scumbag lawyers.

I really am beginning to believe that any lawyer that takes up an ACLU cause should be run out of town immediately and forcefully.

Let the PEOPLE speak --- not the scumbag lawyers

Will the ACLU offer the same protections to Christian students who openly express the opposing view-point? I'm not gonna hold my breath.

Encouraging teenage sexual activity in any form is not appropriate at any school.

I would also expect that the school would probably frown on someone wearing a shirt that says "I'm hetero and I'm proud." Sex doesn't belong in the school. Not straight sex, and certainly not gay sex.

The tiny minority of homos out there are intent on making as much noise as they can so that it appears there are more of them than there really are.

Gays don't want "tolerance:" they want approval, endorsement; they want to actively promote and recruit normal people to their perverted "lifestyle."

We don't have to put up with that.

And if a kid got sent home because his shirt said the truth:

Silly Homo, Penis's are for chicks.

You think the ACLU would give that kid the time of day?

For his part, Mathewson embraces his sexuality. He has known since he was a little boy that he was gay, he said, and chuckles when his mom suggests it might be a "phase" he's going through. "He's still my son," said Marion Mathewson, Brad's mother. "He will always be my son. I stand behind him, and I support him."

She plagiarized this quote from Charles Manson's mom.

If radical freaks ever get the 'power' they lust after, their rabid attack-dog aka the ACLU would bring a charge of "hate" against anyone who dared to wear a t-shirt with the logo suggested by you. "Truth" is hateful and intolerant, dontcha' know?

The real shame of this ACLU circus is that it overshadows another outstanding Webb City Cardinal football team.. they have one of the finest programs in the state year in and year out and are the front runner for another state championship this year...GO CARDS!!

If only inoffensive speech is allowed, there's no freedom of speech. When I was 16, I was outspokenly opinioniated, debating my more secular-minded friends on religion and politics. High school kids are not stupid and are often quite aware of what's going on around them. They should have the right to express themselves.

"The black T-shirt had the words "FHS (Fayetteville High School) Gay/Straight Alliance" on the front and a message on the back that was supportive of gay rights."

Interesting... They never say what was printed on the back. They say that he wore another shirt where he wrote his own gay and proud statement, but the reporter doesn't appear to want to let us in on what the statement on the original shirt said.

The ACLU is actively moving to suppress anything related to Christianity because it offends people. Enough is enough. It's past time for people to recognise the ACLU for what it is....a dangerous enemy of this country with an agenda to destroy it from within.

So how many threads have we seen on FR in the last few months about High School students who have worn conservative or Christian advocacy clothing and gotten treated like this? Under our Constitution, freedom of speech cannot only belong to those who advocate speech you approve of.

According to another article I read on the same story, the back of the shirt has a pink triangle and the words "Make a Difference!".

What surprises me is that people never ask if THEIR lawyer is a member of the ACLU. Did the lawyer who drafted you will donate to the ACLU? Does the lawyer have a "member ACLU" certificate on the wall?

How many PUBLIC law school use PUBLIC money to support this idiocy? Many ACLU chapters are based out of law schools with Professors and law students as free labor.

There is no reason to publicly fund the ACLU.

That's an excellent observation. There are a lot of Christian civil rights groups now. They've sprung up to counter the Left {ACLU, PFAW, etc} and to protect our civil liberties. The Alliance Defense Fund, American Center for Law and Justice, and the Rutherford Institute are but three of them.
