NEWS: The wicked, yes I said wicked, ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) is at it again. This week, the ACLU filed a lawsuit against a North Mississippi school district because it chose to cancel its prom by upholding traditional values.
That action was taken after a student was told she could not arrive at the prom with her lesbian girlfriend. Officials also informed her that she wasn't allowed to wear a tuxedo to the event. The ACLU told school officials that the student's rights were violated and so is now suing.

They did not tell the student the following:
--A school has the right to establish a dress code.
--It has a right to impose regulations for events it sponsors.
--It has a right to enforce regulations and restrictions on conduct.
May are lauding the school for taking a stand for what's right, but it's likely the student wasn't told that either. I sure don't see that part of the story being reported by the main-stream media.
WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT: You can contact the school to express your support. They are under intense pressure to compromise and need encouragement. The school's address to write is:
Itawamba Agricultural High School
11900 Old Highway 25
Fulton, MS 38843-8447

DID YOU KNOW:Roger Nash Baldwin, the ACLU's founder, said,
"I am for Socialism, disarmament and ultimately, for the abolishing of the State itself ... I seek the social ownership of property, the abolition of the propertied class and sole control of those who produce wealth. Communism is the goal."
