Congratulations to all who exercised their 1st Amendment Rights, and SHAME to those who attempted to punish them for it.

I am heartened to see reports from other areas of the country where young people stood together in solidarity. I have been depressed all day because of our local situation deep in DeVos country. It is a small school, and the superintendent dictated the terms of "protest": absolutely not at 10:00, change it to 11:25 so it is just before lunch time. Go outside and mingle with supportive adults? No way: we will herd you into the football stadium (a facility that has no reason to be a part of a school that couldn't field a team if not for School of Choice attendees), away from the real world, where you can circle jerk for 15 minutes. The really discouraging part of this, for me, is the fact that the students agreed to it. No leaders here, just future middle managers of America. I am glad that there are energetic, passionate students out there somewhere.
