It is not within the school's jurisdiction to tell people what they can and cannot hear.

If the school is that concerned about it, then they should have reviewed G.P. Taylor Before inviting him to speak to the students. They could have said "don't say boogey, bum, fart, or gay". Appearantly they didn't because when schools request speakers would either agree to the terms or refuse the invitation. If they didn't care what was said before the 'incident' and only cared because the kids were actually excited about something, then the school needs to get their priorities in order.

How can you say that the teachers has no responsibility over the kids, the parents trust their kids to the teachers, then why send your kids to school.
Gosh I think you are totally wrong in that, the teachers are like a second family for any kid, they spend practically 6 to 7 hours or more in school, so teachers are also responsible about what the students hear and learn in school.

Sadly when you invite someone for a conference, you cannot predict what this person is going to say, apparently he was a priest and maybe that was the wrong impression that the people who invited him got from him, obviously they made a mistake and the best way to correct this mistake was to escort this guy out of school.

And now please respect my OPINION!!!
I won't change my view just because you think he didn't do anything wrong.
So it is pointless for you to reply to my comment.
