[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How dare we encourage our students to work within the system to advocate for change and have their voices be heard! How dare they! This is the sign of a failing school system, clearly!

[b]A change was made-yet they are still not pleased with the outcome.[/b]  Next they will want times set aside to pray, and the school gym floor the designated prayer area, and a loud "bullhorn" to call to prayer!  We cannot make a concession in a "public" school for every person who wants one-I am sure there are private school options to accomodate their requests![/quote]

Maybe "they" -- "they" who? -- are not pleased with the change, because the change they were asking for is different from the change MCPS instituted. If you asked the county to put in a stop sign at your intersection, and the county responded by taking the word "stop" off all of the stop signs in the county, would you be pleased with the outcome?

In any case, the screams of outrage I'm hearing are not coming from the Muslims who asked for a change to the school calendar. The screams of outrage I'm hearing are coming from anti-Muslim people like you.[/quote]
