The entire 2009 graduating class at Florida’s Pace High School stood up to the ACLU by standing up to recite the Lord’s Prayer.
Naturally, the incident has been ignored by the liberal media.
When their principal asked everyone to be seated for the ceremony, nearly 400 graduating seniors remained standing and began their prayer. Parents, family and friends spontaneously joined in and then broke into applause upon its completion.
Here’s the background: The ACLU sued the school six months ago, complaining that prayers had been offered at two school-sponsored events. As the school ramped up preparations for this year’s graduation ceremony, the ACLU demanded that they refrain from saying anything religious.
This blatant attempt at censorship led the students to develop their plan in secret.
“Neither students nor teachers shed their constitutional rights at the schoolhouse gate,” noted Mathew Staver, dean of Liberty University School of Law. “The students at Pace High School refused to remain silent and were not about to be bullied by the ACLU.
We’re thinking of starting a new website called IHateTheACLU.com.

Do it. over the years I’ve more once wished them at least a good case of hemorrhoids. What I despise the most about them is their myopia and downright hatred of Christianity and conservatism. They pick slivers out of their conservative neighbors’ eyes while ignoring whole planks in liberals’ eyes.
That, and they are the fount and the source of all political correctness.
I say it is time to stand up to them and all like them. BRAVO Graduates. Courage, dear men and women, is always admirable!!!!!!

Scandalous! Can you imagine us doing that when we graduated? — no, we were too stoned. How embarrassing (as a boomer) to see that kids today are better than us, even though we thought we knew it all…

“Stevenson believes something should have been done to stop the Lord’s prayer at that time.”
What…gun them down, beat them with sticks, gas them, tazer them? What would he liked to have done to prevent the prayer?
See, this is fascism, plain and simple. Great job graduates! You have the right to freedom of speech no matter who might be offended or what other’s religious beliefs are.

Congratulations to those kids, who besides knowing what’s important, are defending their First Ammendment rights!
