Second class denizens

"Cheers of joy echoed through Sussex Central High School on Monday night when the Indian River School Board announced they would not pay a "six-figure" settlement to end prayer litigation.

The settlement could have ended litigation brought against the board in 2004 by Mona Dobrich, who complained about the inclusion of prayer at her daughter's graduation, and a second unnamed family, but board member Reggie Helms said he is willing to take a chance in court.
"My freedom of speech as a citizen is too important to compromise or risk its loss," he said. "Our court case, where we have been standing up to the ACLU, provides the opportunity for the federal government to permanently uphold my right not to be treated as a second class citizen, or to have to move to the back of the bus."

And this from Jay of Stop The ACLU

I thought that Mr. Helms made a great point for discussion. Are Christians being treated as second class citizens when it comes to their public expression of religion?

And this from me:

But of course. ALL majorities MUST be subject to LOWER standards of freedom, or how else can MINORITIES be treated better...strike that...fairly? Big religion, big business, big white guys. The line forms behind everyone else.

And Jay, will you please stop saying things like "Are the ACLU.." when the proper American form of address requires, "IS the ACLU..." The ACLU is an entity. All entities are singular unless the very name suggests a plurality.

Are the Congress going to pass that bill?

Is the Congress going to pass that bill?

See?

UPDATE

Okay, I screwed up the link to Stop The ACLU, so please accept my heartfelt apology, and if you've the mind to, try again later. If you are not of the mind to, then go fuc, pardon, then that's okay too.
