Texas judge rules for cheerleaders in Bible banner verse suit | Fox News

It's free speech. bub.

I find it funny that our nation was built on God's law, which was the 10 commandents, given to a man who was in fact, so hated by his loving and forgving God, he wasn't allowed into the promised land he was taking everyone to. That's what this nation is based on. Stuff like that.

"The speech in question is government speech or, at a minimum, school-sponsored speech," the group said in court papers. "If the majority of the cheerleaders were atheists, would a court support their 'right' to hold up a banner insulting Christianity or all believers? The district has every right to simply prohibit all run-through and on-field banners."
Perry said Texans should encourage the cheerleaders.
"Anyone who is expressing their faith should be celebrated, from my perspective, in this day and age of instant gratification, this me-first culture that we see all too often," Perry said Wednesday. "We're a nation built on the concept of free expression of ideas. We're also a culture built on the concept that the original law is God's law, outlined in the Ten Commandments."

Rednecks trying to push their religion in public schools, being supported by corrupt, law breaking, right wing politicians trying to score political points.

It's all temporary. The adults will come in eventually and apply law.

It's too bad this school doesn't have an atheist cheerleader, or satanist cheerleader who could write their own "inspirational" signs.

How about a pentagram or 666?

Those cries for "free speech" by these hayseeds would dry up real quick, and all the signs would stop.
