>Those are interesting, but the one I recall was concerning a 12 year old Black girl in Dallas, TX. It was after she was suspended that her folks contacted lawyers (I don't remember if the Rutherford Insititute was involved or not).
Well, I can't find any record of this, including searching the archives of the Dallas Morning News.
<< There is no way of knowing how many folks were badgered into giving up their First Amendment rights because they couldn't afford to fight or were not aware of their legal options, but you can imagine the ratio is similar to cockroaches: dozens of unpublicized situations for every one that appears in the media or in the courts. >>
No doubt, but of course, this cuts both ways. I'm sure there are thousands of kids (some now adults) who didn't fight for their right to go to school without being coerced to pray.
IAC, no one ever said having your civil rights was easy. Jefferson said "The price of liberty is eternal vigilance."
