And what kind of level of tolerance is demonstrated by those who advocate for big government thought control of the schools instead of leaving it in the hands of the local school board?

Are you referring to the school board that was sued by the parents of the school children? Apparently you think that the school board knows better than the parents. Do you also want the school board contolling the home schoolers?

If the parents didn’t like what the school board did, they could have just homeschooled or put their kids in private school. You know the same option that is thrown up in the faces of Christians who don’t like that the school boards do.

They didn’t have to waste the schools money by suing them.

Are you saying that parents know better than school boards?
