the opinion that some people have compared bush to hitler. That's perfectly fine.
Freedom of speech is limited to safety and security of the kids. he didn't threaten their security or the running of the school. he didn't lower anyone's grade or humiliate anyone personally. They've got nothing on him.
The school is keeping him out temporarily just in case there's more to the story, but it doesn't sound like there is. As long as the kids are allowed to state their own pro-bush opinions without it costing them anything from the teacher, he's done nothing wrong.
This kid did us a favor. free speech!!!
