If they let both sides of the issue wear shirts I am fine with it.

They probably won’t though.

What does the shirt say? “ If my crotch pokes you in the ass that just take it, it means I like you”

Let parents send their kids to whatever kind of school they want.

Yeah, and let them pay for it.

I love Waynesville. It’s one of the best little towns in Ohio.

Much as I like Wayensville, there’s not much to it. Small town and all.

Yes, parents should pay for their children’s education, and if they were not paying high property taxes to support government schools, they could afford it. Let there be vouchers for the poor, if necessary, but ideally, the money for poor kids would come from private charity.
