I had to read this a few times before it sunk in. I can not believe that we have come to such a sorry state of affairs in this country that this even had to be considered.
(Pa.) Senate approves military uniform bill
http://www.phillyburbs.com/news/local/courier_times/courier_times_news_details/article/28/2009/april/01/senate-approves-military-uniform-bill.html
The result was Senate Bill 206, which the Senate approved Tuesday by a 49-1 vote, that prohibits public school officials from discriminating against members of the armed forces,
McIlhinney's legislation, which will now go to the House of Representatives for consideration, would prohibit any principal, superintendent or school official from denying any member of the military entry to school facilities because he or she is wearing a military uniform. Military members would still be expected to comply with a school's visitor policy, but they could not be denied access because of their uniforms, McIlhinney said.
Oh and if your curious:
State Sen. Jim Ferlo, a Democrat from Allegheny County, was the lone vote against the bill.
Can we question their patriotism now?
