Of course she got the flowers. They were probably calling flower shops until they found some that wouldn't send them to her so they could sue.

If Christians respected the 1st Amendment in the first place, then none of this would be happening. However, somehow you have the gall to blame her and activist.

Simply appalling.
If American citizens as a whole understood the Constitution, there would be far fewer actions like this.

The banner was fully constitutional.

Wonder how far out they had to call..could be 9 towns over where they didn't hear the story yet. Small towns are vicious and word passes quicker then you can snap your fingers.

This is probably the truth, and the Atheists communists liars union (ACLU) was right by her side waiting.

What wingnuts conveniently ignore is that the ACLU mostly represents citizens against the overstepping of government.

I have the right to serve who I please with my business.

They are free to go elsewhere.

Talk about petty.....generations of graduates no longer have that banner to view when they return to the school.

I hope she's happy.

Not if you serve the public. We have moved past the separate, but equal phase in our society. It is time for you to catch up. It is 2012, not the 1950's.

As the federal court ruled, it was unconstitutional and it needed to removed or altered. The school could have easily altered the school prayer, but choose not to.

As with the religiousness has shown over and over, it either their way or threats of violence, persecution, ostracizing, and harassment. Some of you need to learn a little something about tolerance.
