Alright, now I know that George W. Bush isn't the best president this country's seen. But my teacher has comical pictures of Bush on his wall. Distorted faced pictures of Bush, Bush riding an atomic bomb, a picture of the United States flag upside down with the word "Politics" under it.
Ohkay, so what if he doesn't like Bush or the politics in America, but here's the thing I'm wondering about. How come he has a large, undistorted picture of Osama bin Laden on his wall too? It seems like he dislikes the West and favors al-Qaeda and bin Laden.
I don't know, is this "right"? freedom of speech

do you get the idea hes pushing his political beliefs on you or is it just a joke to him?it does seem wierd he makes fun of our pres and doesnt do it to bin laden.i say ask him.call him out in class and see what he does.start a dialogue on the subject,see what he is up to.hopefully he explaines it and doent get offended.i dont think it falls under freedom of speech,especially since its a picture,no speech involved.theres no such law called freedom of expression.if they cant do the pledge of alligence,no political beliefs should be expressed period.

The whole educational system is rife with left wing nuts, and they're doing their best to indoctrinate everyone else's children with their sick political views, which isn't right.
I can think back to my days in school, and I can not only not remember many teachers I liked or had any respect for, but I can remember many of them who were just plain oddballs.
It's not merely a matter of free speech either. Students are a captive audience, and there is nothing democratic about the class room environment.

Freedom of speech means that I have the right to say anything as long as it does not physically hurt someone. No one can judge we I say or you say. If I don't like what you say then I don't have to listen. As long as you don't hurt me. It sounds like you have fallen for selective democracy for American citizens. If you don't like it ,it must go. That's a shame because there are a lot of American soldiers dying in Iraq and we are trying to spread democracy there.

He shouldn't be a teacher. We don't pay the educators of our children to express their views to our kids. It is wrong and I would demand he remove them.

I dislike Bush intensely, but I think it's inappropriate for your teacher to be displaying such images. I would talk to the principal. Yes, he's entitled to his freedom of expression, but I don't think it's appropriate for him to sharing his negative opinions with his students. -RKO- 09/07/07

It's right according to the constitution but since he works directly for the government in which he doesn't believe in I think is wrong.

Your teacher must be in the NEA. Don't count on learning much from your teachers.

A school zone is a special zone, and he does not have freedom of speech in that environment.
