I don't like censorship in any form. I trust Americans to make-up their own minds. If these anti-American idiots want to spew one-sided propaganda on their website, fine. Let them be seen as the reactionary idiots that they are.

What do you mean censorship?

The school was perfectly free to keep putting up an anti-American website. No one's rights were abused here. The school administrators pulled it or the teacher pulled it out of fear of the opinion of the fellow-citizens.

Beyond that, there are still remnants of teachers' conduct codes. They are not allowed to be anti-American and they're not supposed to bring their private politics into the classroom.

In addition, tolerating this might lead to such a teacher discriminating against a student who is pro-military.

I am a Feeeper teacher. I strongly believe that my job, any teacher's job, is to teach, not to indoctrinate. My views are mine I do not impose them on my students. (I do answer their questions about my opinion if they ask about that specifically).

The biggest compliment that I get is "You're not like the other teachers".
