“The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of my position that we should not allow taxpayer funding of radical Islamic schools here in Oklahoma,” Drummond said in a statement. “I am proud to have fought against this potential cancer in our state, and I will continue upholding the law, protecting our Christian values and defending religious liberty.”


This piece of garbage gets a Catholic charter school shut down, and then has the nerve to talk about "protecting our Christian values" and how they "should not allow taxpayer funding of radical Islamic schools."

Stupid.

Trump may as well have nominated AOC to the court.

Even with state funding, this would be unsuccessful. You fools always talk about imagining things that have no demand and wouldn't be able to stay open.

Why would the Supreme Court have oversight of state and local education systems/plans?

Well we're talking about Constitutional limits and legalities, not market forces.

Why are you trying to avoid the actual topic?

Do you support public funding of public, radical Islamic schools?

This case aside, WTH does the Catholic Church need state dollars to start a charter school?

The response is going to be "America is a CHRISTIAN nation, not MUSLIM" which is a total non-answer.

Permitting the Catholic school would open the door to one, though.

Why do you want to permit radical Islamic schools to create public schools funded with state money?

Again, this is about legal standards, not whatever diversion you're attempting.

Something along those lines

And then, not understanding how bad their rhetoric is, they'll display some Dunning-Kruger and claim those pointing this out are the morons.

No, it would not. Radical Islamic schools promote terrorism. It would be very simple to separate that from allowing religious charter schools.

You didn't. You manufactured a straw man to avoid answering.

Again, as I pointed out earlier, the bad rhetoric is on fully display.

The straw man is talking about imaginary "radical Islamic schools" that don't exist.

It's honestly amazing that you used the term straw man while defending one.
