To Bryan Henderson's Principal
Mr. Browning,
Why it's OK for your school's history teacher to dispense her political ideologies in the classroom but it's NOT OK for Bryan Henderson to do so in return? Where is the fairness? Why are students (brave for standing up against an incredibly slanted LEFT educational system), denied the very same freedom that their teachers abuse?!
It is hypocrisy. These teachers permit free speech only for students who share similar ideologies. If you stray from "common thought" then you are silenced or abused. In others words: Individual expression and thought is Oppressed.
News Alert: Elevating your constitutional right above all others is in direct conflict of the socialist ideology of equality for all. The history teacher may introduce her political ideologies in class, yet a student is not permitted the same respect. Where is the equality she purportedly defends as a Marxist?
What is it that you fear? A healthy, intellectual, fact-based debate for the TRUTH? Wouldn't such a debate expand the critical thinking skills with which a student should graduate? Wouldn't a healthy debate and search for the TRUTH nurture our future leaders? Or would you rather have America's future be lead by individuals with no individual thought?
Don't you see the danger in silencing students who have conviction? So few students HAVE a conviction about anything except for sports or entertainment, and for those students who display truly intellectual prowess, you want to silence? Why? We should be supporting students who display such a high moral ground rather than silencing them!
Please pass this message on to that Leftist history teacher: Silencing us will only incite us to speak out more. So, afford Mr. Henderson and others like him to freely express themselves. In the end, they'll speak out anyway, and you'll only have made a fool of yourself... You tell someone to shut up, and they will only speak louder instead.
To Bryan Henderson: You are a courageous soul on a mission for TRUTH. You have also brilliantly documented (with facts) a political position for which your LEFT students and teachers have no argument against. That is why they have resorted to virulent attacks against you. That is why they rip down your posters, but refuse to be photographed while doing so. If they truly believed in their message, they would defend their position with a dignified stature, without an impetuous, highly-emotional response.
These group thinkers would rather oppress your freedom of speech than engage in a civil, adult debate. How absolutely transparent. They don't realize that they're only hurting themselves and their "cause" by personally attacking you (calling you a racist, etc.) rather than discussing the issue at hand. One thing I've learned is to never attack a person's character when in disagreement. It only makes you look stupid. If you disagree with their position, then attack the position, not the person.
You and other Protest Warriors are on the right track in search of TRUTH, and your voices are being heard. No doubt about it. We and so many others out there support you and your quest.
Sincerely,
Kristina M. Murray
