re: #2 Dark_Falcon

I’m going to have to disagree here. I think that for a teacher to put down a student’s beliefs like that was unprofessional and grounds for a reprimand at minimum. I also not sure this conclusion will be upheld. The 9th Circuit en masse would likely uphold it, but that doesn’t say much. The 9th is the most liberal circuit in the country, and it’s long been too liberal to be worthy of respect in my eyes.

Even if I agreed that his statements were “unprofessional and grounds for a reprimand” (I don’t — he’s right on a purely factual basis), that’s a helluva long way from a violation of the First Amendment of the US Constitution.
