It began last week with a single online comment, one critical of a high school display marking Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender History Month. It soon ballooned into a harangue against homosexuality, a "perverted spirit" and a "sin" that "breeds like cancer... Why parade your unnatural immoral behaviors before the rest of us?" a woman who identified herself as Viki Knox wrote on Facebook. "I do not have to tolerate anything others wish to do. I do have to love and speak and do what's right!"

"The Rev. Milton B. Hobbs, pastor of the non-denominational New Covenant Fellowship in Clark, also said special education teacher Viki Knox is not a homophobe and that her comments, when taken in the context of the Bible, were not false."

Who is the one being bullied here? When Viki Knox exercised her right to free speech on her own Facebook page... the News and Nation bashed her! The Nation should be more tolerant and support their constitution by allowing her the freedom to share her beliefs as she chooses... but that's not what this is about is it?

It is about how the LGBT agenda has nothing to do with the tolerance they want others to show... turning Facebook opinions into "bashing gays on main-street" ...nowhere did Knox say she hated anyone, only that she disagreed with an agenda being forced in schools and that she believed the Biblical take on homosexuality. I have yet to see people in "strait parades" or picketing a business and schools because people are hetrophobes... and are strait-bashing~!

It seems more obvious everyday that there isn't a freedom or constitutional right that won't be taken or infringed upon to promote the LGBT agenda...
what's being done is nothing less than criminal.
So much for democracy.

Expressing one's opinion is "hate" but tossing bricks through a Church window isn't???? OK we get the message...

"Brick assault on Christian church not 'hate crime'
Police: 'Strictly by the state statute, it really doesn't fit the criteria'
Arlington Heights, Ill., police told WND they are not classifying an Oct. 15 attack on a church as an anti-Christian "hate crime" after vandals hurled two chunks of concrete through a church window and threatened more aggression if the Christian group refuses to "Quit the homophobic s---!"

7 months ago: The attorney who is after her job says "She has a right to say it. But she does not have a right to keep her job after saying it."

What kind of rights are those? Speak your mind and we'll let you say it, but we'll punish you for daring to do so. The thought police are out in full force and if we allow this sort of thing, it can only get worse.
7 months ago: Box,

As you know, we discuss many topics here at RR and this type of thing is typical, in education be it a "sexual orientation" or "intelligent design" ...there is no real freedom of speech, because anyone with an opinion is bullied if their's differs from that of the political whim of the times!

7 months ago: Good Point...

This woman teacher has the right to keep her mouth shut, even on her own time! Next all teachers will be forced to teach the LGBT curriculum... Oh, sorry that's already what is required. Why not just leave sex out of education... all it has done is pollute the minds of innocent children and feed the abortion knives.

7 months ago: Rules for teachers in 1915:

1. You will not marry during the term of your contract. You are not to keep company with men.
2. You must be home between the hours of 8 p.m. and 6 a.m. unless attending a school function.
3. You may not loiter downtown in any ice cream stores.
4. You may not travel beyond the city limits unless you have permission of the chairmen of the board.
5. You may not smoke cigarettes.
6. You may not under any circumstances dye your hair.
7. You may not dress in bright colors.
8. You may not ride in a carriage or automobile with any man unless he be your father or brother.
9. You must wear at least two petticoats.
10. Your dresses must not be any shorter than 2 inches above the ankles.


My, ♬ how the times ♪ they are a-changing♬ . In those days, a teacher had to be the epitome of virtue. Now, it's keep your mouth shut and let whatever happens happen. So much for advancement of women's rights.

You think that's why they get paid so much, to make it more of a burden if they don't toe the line? After all, Vikki stands to lose a 70,000 + salary if she loses her job. That's a heck of an example to all the ones who are left.

7 months ago: Box,

What do you think about the language used by the lady in the video in reference to her "sister" ...and how she can get away with that?

7 months ago: For anyone to call anyone else a "stupid coon"is reprehensible, and the woman in the video is obviously playing to her audience. For her to mock the woman's belief system ..."where did you learn that, your parents? Tee hee hee. " ... actually disturbed me more, though.
7 months ago: See this is the thing, the woman who made the video did stand up for freedom of speech, however used racial slurs and a twisted mocking of the traditional family to do it. A graphic portrayal that even stupidity is protected under freedom of speech.
7 months ago: I totally detest racism, but people have the right to voice their opinion... that is until it promotes violence and real hatred... not just imagined. The same with someone's opinion on sexual education... and nowhere did Viki Knox promote violence.

7 months ago: What do you think her motivation was in doing this? Her motivation, especially considering the ramifications that she had to know were waiting in the wings.

Frustration? Anger? Both?

If she does in fact lose her job, isn't that counter productive to the messeage that she was trying to send? That is, if I or we actually do understand it.

BTW - I'm still not clear on ultimately what she was trying to accomplish long-term using the avenue that she chose to use as well as the tone and sentiment.

Please help me out here.
7 months ago: I think sometimes teachers just want to be human and give their side "straight from the hip" ...it doesn't always pan-out the way we hope. There is a heap of pressure on teachers to promote an agenda that they don't believe in, and that has to be frustrating! Especially when these agendas come all the way down from the President. Sometimes one just has to damn the torpedoes!
7 months ago: She should have been smarter than that.

I can understand and appreciate the frustration. However, if she loses her job, more than likely the replacement will be someone to perpetuate the agenda rather than be a light in the darkness.

Plays right into the enemy's hands.
7 months ago: Yeah, you have a point there.
7 months ago: Also, that woman in the video is a straight up idiot. A duplistic jack-azz.
7 months ago: Huey you nailed it... big-time!
