It is nice to see that common sense prevails!

I used to live five miles from there. Didn't know that teacher, though.

Cynic in me says it translates thus:
"Holy frick! There are a LOT of people who are actually paying attention to our little jack-boot thought crime stunt! Quickly, backpedal, plaid speed!"

I'm actually really glad to see this. While I disagree with his view, I am glad he retained the right to keep it. No one on either side should have their words shut down. Thank you for the followup.

I see freedom of speech as one of the fundamental pillars in a free and democratic society and while I do not share Mr. Buell's views it would be a terrible crime for me to deny him the right to voice those views.
Now, if he had fronted those views in the classroom in his capacity as a teacher, that would have been a completely different case, but as a private person he should be able to present his opinions freely.
