A student sneezes in a classroom in a high school in Tennessee. A fellow student says “bless you.” The teacher hears it and suspends the student for saying the phrase in the classroom.
Are those who are studying to become teachers in the school system not allowed to read the U.S. Constitution? It’s obvious this teacher had never read it. Or maybe this teacher could never understand the meaning of the word “abridge: to curtail, cut short.” The Constitution says there will be no abridging the freedom of speech.
What seems more likely is a hatred this teacher has for anything referring to a supreme being.
