I never said that THIS principle said that....What I was doing is making an analogy.
But it wasn't an analogy, it was an accusation of hypocrisy. You stated public schools say it's okay to teach tolerance/acceptance of homosexuals, and suggested it was hypocrisy to believe high school students couldn't handle this. The problem is you have ZERO evidence THIS principal has said anything about homosexuality. This principal does not speak for the education system, only for his school. And he made a decision in the best interest of his school and what another principal at another school decides is best for their school is irrelevant..
Can you demonstrate that the 'community' has values in line with the principle?
Don't have to, was only showing how ridiculous your premise was. What one community values is not the same as what another community values, so comparing one school district to another is pointless.
Oh, I don't think so...In that case then there wouldn't be a need for a Federal education system.
If you don't think so, then you clearly have no idea about the educational system and should stop posting in this thread immediately. That's not me being a jackass, that's just a sincere recommendation.
Funny, because other than being identified as a "pro life student group" the article didn't go into any detail about what the display was.
It doesn't matter what the display was, it is a political position in an environment which is not controlled and moderated.
Clearly they did though. By shutting down the display, they are defacto taking the choice side of the issue.
That's stupid. No, really, that's stupid. Refusing the display says NOTHING about the position of the school or principal on the issue, only that they feel the issue did not belong in that particular place at that particular time. Lack of approval does not mean disapproval.
But at the same time, it doesn't say what the display was. For all we know it could have been as simple as the different stages of growth of the baby inside the womb.
But we do know the principal said it was not appropriate at that time and place.
Unless you can demonstrate that there was some misinformation being given out or discussed, then you are assuming something you don't know...
Seriously? Did you seriously say this same thing again? God damn...
I'm not assuming anything, I'm not even talking about this particular display. I'm talking about how a political issue should be presented in a school. It has nothing to do with THIS story at all...let's pretend we're talking about gun control for a second. ANY politically charged issue being discussed at school should be in a controlled and moderated environment, with fact based literature (not propaganda or emotion) driving the discussion.
I honestly have no idea how many times I have to say this before you'll understand it.
Why not? Other student groups were allowed to set up their displays at lunch time.
No politically charged and highly emotional issues should be allowed at school unless under the situation I just described previously.
