Read this incredible story of a West Virginia teenager's courage in standing up against leftist, politically correct teachers and students
Here's the link!!

The kid's email is at the end of the story. Give him a big pat on the back!!
The article is long, but inspiring!
BTTT
Kudos to the Kiddos
I took the time to read this lengthy article, and encourage EVERYBODY else here to do the same. It is an excellent illustration of a classic conservative VS leftist conflict, and how the leftists ALWAYS end up losing their cool, and showing their true ugliness when they lose the argument.
It just goes to show, leftists can't STAND to lose!
This kid IS a hero! But his principal should be taken out back and horsewhipped for being the spineless weenie that he is. This principal had the perfect opportunity to either choose GOOD, or EVIL....and he chose EVIL. Shame on him!
I don't know, but isn't that Linda Rhonsdat?
This got my attention because I just got done with senior year in high school and can relate EXACTLY to his troubles. My school was COMPLETELY run by liberals, and if you dared speak out against them you'd end up getting punished by students and teachers.
People could say his signs were a little extreme but you HAVE to be extreme to be heard as a conservative in high schools. It's a constant uphill battle. I wish that student the best of luck in conveying his message.
I am celebrating being out of high school now but know i only have COLLAGE to look forward to and that's not going to be much better when it comes to liberals running things.
At least i can vote in this election, though.
Done and Done
I would adopt that kid if I could. You know the best thing about him - he looks normal. Not some poindexter looking geek but a long-haired hippy. I think its great.
:)~
Yeah, but its a college collage.
The kid did well. Very well. If he wanted to push it further, he could go ahead and post them, get punished and then sue. Doesn't sound like he's up for that kind of fight. There are conservative judicial rights groups, I think, that could take up the cause. Schools hate lawsuits.
That's the principals e-mail address where is the kids?
Magnificent!
Thanks for the post!
Dear Principal Browning,With aplomb, self-assurance and legal savvy far beyond his years, Bryan Henderson acquitted himself beautifully in mounting "Operation Tiger Claw" at Princeton Senior High School. He then went on to write a column for FrontPage Magazine.com (http://www.frontpagemag.com/Content/read.asp?ID=82) that any seasoned journalist would be proud to call his own.
This is the kind of student that real educators should CHERISH. At his tender age he has learned to think for himself and back up the positions he's taken with solid facts and cogent arguments. It's the Chomskyite teacher in your midst you should be worried about (only the hopelessly muddle-headed find Chomsky credible), not an outstanding future leader like Bryan Henderson.
Sincerely, etc.
BTW, it's not the kid's email at the end of the column. It's the email of the school principal.
Wishing there had been more student's like this fellow at our local highschool.
