this situation was just a blip on anyone's radar until extremists like you got wind of it.

The suppression of individual freedom is not a "blip on the radar." As for extremists, I like to remember Barry Goldwater's line in his 1964 speech accepting the GOP presidential nomination, "Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice." To paraphrase Patrick Henry, if this be extremism, make the most of it.

stupid Internet site

I would rather get my information from Free Republic and World Net Daily than the Miami Herald and the local network affiliates, which regurgitate the standard liberal nonsense.

In fact, thanks to the Internet and talk radio, it has been more difficult to hide unjust actions than in the past. Were it not for such sources, the Dubai ports deal would have been passed, the Duke lacrosse players would be serving time in a heavily black North Carolina prison, Harriet Miers would be serving on the Supreme Court instead of Samuel Alito, the anti-homosexual protesters at a Philadelphia "gay rights" parade would have been sentenced to a fine and jail times, etc. There is no longer a near monopoly on public information, and local bullies may suffer from exposure than was the case in the past.

Sorry if the local honchos in Key Largo cannot get away with bullying Gideons exercising their Constitutional rights. They can cry in their martinis at the country club if they wish, but they will get no sympathy from Americans who know and will defend the principles upon which this nation was founded.

Dear "know it all" they were on school property. How many ways can you paraphrase that?

What about the individuals who went to the front office of this school to complain about these men? They were parents of students at that school. Should Mrs. Martinson have ignored them? Wish you were in her place that day. Walk a mile in her shoes baby - walk a mile.

By the way - its margaritas and bars. We do have one thing in common though - I am not a fan of the Miami Herald. I do however, trust my very one eyes. No unjust actions here. The men were on the school campus. Maybe I should write that a hundred times.
