Do you think that she had a right to do that? What if she was the minority of the school?

Of course she had the right and people have the right to call her mean names.

If you want a democracy, you probably should move to a different country.

In any case, yes, she did have the right to uphold the law and get the mural removed.

Yes, totally had the right.

School prayer, ok in a church funded school, not cool in a public school. I think those that are so concerned about sharia law taking over would agree, public schools need to be neutral.
