FREEDOM!!

A couple of months ago, I was reading a World Magazine, and saw an ad for Good News Club, natrually a s a helper in Good News Club I wanted to check it out.  The Header read "Share the Gospel in Public Schools? Yes it's legal!*" note that asterix, it referenced to a footnote that said "according to the supreme court Milford Central School vs. Good News Club"  so, being in Ruston and having access to the Internet I looked it up; I found this.Sweet Day!

Restrictions on speech that takes place in a limited public forum must not discriminate on the basis of the speaker's viewpoint and be reasonable in light of the forum's purpose. Because the school's exclusion of the Good News Club violated this principle, the school violated the Club's free speech rights guaranteed by the First Amendment. Furthermore, the school's claim that allowing the club to meet on its property would violate the Establishment Clause lacked merit and thus was no defense to the club's First Amendment claim.

Sweet Day!
