If they do this in my school, it WILL be vandalized. Namely by me. This is absolutely outrageous. Christians need to stop shoving their religion down everyone's throats. This is appalling.
I see your country is in the retrograde phase.
It was shot lived as nation number 1 wasn't it, even us brits managed to keep it for a while.

Fundamentalists and Conservatives are forever bleating about their tax dollars being wasted but they have no problems wasting our tax dollars on futile legal challenges to the First Amendment and Roe vs. Wade.

If we must have a patriotic motto on the school walls, what the hell is wrong with E Pluribus Unum?
In the fucked up political age we inhabit, that motto (rather than government-sponsored lip service to the Undemonstrated One) might have the salutary effect of reminding us that being American isn't a question of which team you cheer for or who you hate.

I see the bill contains the language: "The display may take the form of a mounted plaque, student artwork, or any other appropriate form..."
This doesn't specify paint: blood or camel dung might be considered appropriate, depending on the nature of the student artwork.

Blood for the ink would be entirely apropos.
