"This is a free country, so we should
be allowed 60 seconds of silence, but
it's also a free country which allows
people to be so rudely disrespectful. I
don't think the silence would work. It
would only create havoc."
--Annie Tippets
"A 60-second moment of silence
for prayer in school is a farce. It shows
Ideological a complete disregard for students'
rights not to have other students'
Makeup of personal spiritual beliefs shoved down
their throats."
--Niesha Trout

Class
"The Constitution merely prohibits

separate. If a person feels the need to
pray or worship, he can do so silently
to himself. God can be reached any
time."
--Austin York

62,kral of silence, people can do what they
want. Because it doesn't hurt anyone,
everybody has a choice and a right."
