But in a change before Wednesday’s vote, Republican lawmakers added a clause ensuring that the bill “does not prohibit a statement of a sincerely held belief or moral conviction” of a student or school worker.

"I sincerely believe you are a faggot you effing Queer and the bible says that you are an abomination, that is why I'm now going to beat you bloody."

Later...

"Hey I was only upholding my sincere beliefs and moral convictions, can I go back to class now?"

"allright, but please try not to make such a mess in the hallway next time, you know how hard it is trying to clean up that much blood?"

Violence is still prohibited, but I take your point. But I would argue that the change is defensible. It prevents a situation where someone claims he or she has been bullied because someone else criticizes them from a religious or moral perspective, I myself would add some additional standards to that, so as to make clear that while saying "I don't agree with you having sex outside of marriage, as the Bible says that is sinful." is clearly protected speech, repeatedly taunting someone with "The Bible says you're going to Hell, you slut!!1" may not be.

Fortunately, this gives a green light for others to fight back.

I would have had a much easier time in High School if this was the policy at my school back then. The bullies a fair amount of the time, would be thin-skinned.

Not in a school setting it isn't. Not if it's disruptive to the class.

For me as a kid, the verbal bullying was toughr. Getting mocked all the time. Closest I ever got to a fight was in 7th grade when some kid in the locker room wouldn't leave me the hell alone and we had other classes together too. It's going to torment a kid just as bad by calling hm a faggot, telling him he's going to hell, etc than if you hit him. Frankly I am sick of legislators using religion to rationalize bullying gay kids and claim oh they're just exercising their first amendment rights. If there was a wave of verbal bullying Christian kids like there has been with gay kids, they wouldn't care about the beliefs part.

So this means the atheist kids can bully the little Jesus freaks, right?

Attention, class: It is my sincere belief that those of you who profess to follow the Christian religion are mired in intellectual poverty equivalent to that of the Iron Age desert nomads who invented it. You claim to derive moral instruction from a book that requires you to actively ignore the majority of its instructions in order to stay out of prison or the psychiatric ward. You spread this repugnant immoral malevolence as far and wide as you can, like a plague, and leave nothing in your wake but misery and corruption. You even have the temerity to seek "donations" from your victims, to finance more of the same.

Now, if you'll get out your Big Chief tablets and a pencil, today we're going to practice writing the letters of the alphabet.
