“Are you equating stepping on the flag with murder?”
Are you serious? The principle you espouse is that abstract concepts require physical demonstration to be understood. Maybe I should have said exceeding a speed limit sign to make people comprehend how the sign should be obeyed.
“I don’t agree with what he said, but the school is a government entity, and they did, in fact, violate his freedom of speech IF, and only IF, the flag belonged to the teacher.”
What makes you think teachers have freedom of speech when doing their job. They don’t. That will get them fired in a heartbeat. Just like on ANY OTHER job. Government workers in particular don’t have freedom of speech while doing their job.
Everything they do is prescribed by rules and regulations like most jobs.
I agree with you there.
I misread/misinterpreted your post on understanding the idea behind murder and the witnessing thereof. Sorry about that.
That being said, if he's on his dime and it's his flag, I don't care what he does with it, I'll disagree with him, and explain why, but I won't try to stop him.
