How safe is your job?
According to the Wisconsin State Journal, a judge recently tossed out a case of a women who was fired from her teaching job in red-state Indiana for talking about peace in her classroom.
I get that some people would disagree with what she said, but she was answering a question from a student. It wasn't a lesson plan on how to fight against the Bush war in Iraq. Perhaps with the push for virtual schooling, the right could work to have kids taught only from the White House webpage and the Fox 'news' channel.

I'm confused -- Indiana is a Red State -- People in Red States proclaim to be Christians -- A Christian is a follower of Jesus -- Jesus taught that peace was the way -- So how can teaching about peace in a "Christian" red state be a bad thing.
And, how can a judge say it is okay to fire you for exercising your 1st Amendment rights?
And, one last question, in the 50's, didn't being a red mean you were a communist? So, does this mean that Red Staters are really Communists in diguise?
