I bet this has a lot to do with it. Looks like it worked.


I wonder what the outcome is now?

I am understanding that the book has been withdrawn. He is also new to the area, so it may have helped him garner some business. Shows he is not afraid and perfect to be an attorney. I'm thinking they will want him to run for local office next. LOL!

The Editor of the local paper told her that she was "censoring" material. I personally know the woman and she is a total liberal.

Anyway, my mother stated that she was mistaken as censoring (exam and expurgate) is when material can't be "published" anywhere, such as the censoring that Hilter imposed.

She went on to say that the school district had the moral right to exam any material presented to minors. They, for instance, wouldn't put a Playboy magazine in the library.

The Editor told her to sit down and be quiet. LOL!

And, BTW, my mother is very petite and has a very soft voice. She is the epitome of a Southern Belle. So, you can imagine how she, just speaking those curse words, put them all to shame. You can't imagine such a lady saying those things. It was to great effect!

Had this father been a teenager, we would be glad to see that teenager made to show respect for law enforcement officers as he is thrown to the ground for running his exhaust pipe.

This father's attitude made me angry enough to want to tweak his handcuffs or pull up on his hands even just a little bit to purposefully cause more pain to him in hopes it would make him shut up.

This father definitely had the attitude of a rotten teenager, but the restraint that comes with maturity so instead of getting his head bashed in by the police officer, we get to continue to hear his nauseating voice.


Moral: Don't be too quick to blame the teenager when he is bashed by law enforcement.
So you are against a man for freedom of speech? I get it.

Jermyn's comments, especially in bold, are not surprising considering he has openly admitted he would fire on American citizens as part of a military exercise.

He gave the School board grounds to dismiss his concerns by behaving outside the established rules. I agree with him 100% but method is as important as message.
Right. Just read it and see if their faces turn red...nuff said

Exaggerations are bad. He was arrested for refusing to leave after being asked to. In fact the police officer asked him to leave and he refused and told the officer that he would have to arrest him.
