A high school principal in Fort Wayne, Indiana goes ballistic after seeing anti-abortion signs on school grounds. Principal Carlton Mable yelled at the protesters and tried to bully them off his property (public property) and then threw at least one of their signs into the street.
Watch:
EAG – Fort Wayne high school principal Carlton Mable demonstrated what he thinks about free speech recently when he trashed signs for a pro-life group demonstrating near South Side High School.
The Thomas More Society is demanding an apology from Mable and Fort Wayne Community Schools – and assurances from the city to protect free speech rights – over a video that shows Mable’s tirade against members of Created Equal, a pro-life group that toted signs and passed out literature in the public right of way in front of the school on Nov. 18, Life News reports.
The video shows Mable aggressively approach the pro-life advocates and demand they leave “school property” before getting physical with the camera man.
“Get them off my property,” Mable said of the group’s signs, which illustrated the reality of abortion.
“Hey, you’re recording me? I’m not going to be happy. You understand me?” he continued. “Please remove those signs off school property.”
The man recording the incident attempted to explain that the group was in fact on public property adjacent to the district-owned school, but Mable wasn’t having it.
“No, no, no, off school property,” the principal insisted. “Get these signs off my property.”
“You can’t approach my kids,” he said. “Take your stuff and get off my school property.”
The demonstrators then flagged down a police officer, who confirmed Mable was overstepping his authority. At one point, Marble allegedly tossed at least one of the signs into the street.
Once an officer explained to Mable that he had no right to heckle the Created Equal group, the principal changed his tune.
“To me, I would consider all of this pornographic,” Mable told the officer of the unborn children on the signs. “These pictures – this is pornographic to me.”
Pornographic? Well they are somewhat disturbing, but they wouldn’t be necessary if liberal abortion indoctrination wasn’t prevalent in our schools. The idea that a baby is just ’tissue’ is ridiculous and students need to know the truth. Heck, a heartbeat can be detected now at just after an embryo is two weeks old!
I’m glad the police got there and settled this. While the Thomas More Society may deserve an apology, I think they made their point loud and clear due to the princpal’s bullyish tirade drawing tons of attention to them.
