The article states this that this violated the school district's policy. i would imagine that there is some elected element to the school district.
That would indicate that this policy was at least, in part, the result of some form of direct or indirect democratic process, and not the result of a fatwah handed down from the teacher's union.

Agreed. But democratic process of not, I'm sure we can both agree that said policy is much more likely to be taken out of context and applied inappropriately as demonstrated in this situation, in an atmosphere in which groups enacting similar politically correct policies are able to flourish, in which there are less incentives for individual school systems and teachers to intervene to deter similar situations due to certain protections and entitlements guaranteed by unions, and while gradually indoctrinating the public to accept greater amounts of stringent rule and policy as the norm, weather or not it leads to improvement, or becomes a detriment to our school systems and the children themselves.

Wow, separate your thoughts into different sentences next time.

A big fault in getting one's point across in a rhetorical and compository manner, is verbosity.

This isn’t a contest. Just me providing my perspective. If you believe I’m trying to persuade anyone by being rhetorical, so be it. Regardless of the “verbosity” of my statement, most people get my drift. Even if I was specifically trying to be overbearing and persuasive, we both know Faulkton don’t play that.
