Weeks ago, Howell High School economics teacher Jay McDowell was reprimanded for addressing a student for making gay slurs in class (see here). Jay was suspended without pay for 14 days.
During a school board meeting, Graeme Taylor approached the stand and defended his teacher.
Thank you, Graeme for standing up for your rights and the rights of others

What an amazing speech that young man gave. He's inspirational and this kind of heroism should be passed around and shared. Thanks.
The composure of that kid is amazing. Its rare to find someone so young who can remain so calm and articulate. Thanks for sharing.
After thinking about if it for a few more minutes I felt compelled to also post on my blog. I've given you a shout out as the source. Thanks again for sharing.
What a brave young man.Restores a little of my faith in human beings.
Reprimand? The school should be held accountable for all the teachers and staff that turn a blind eye.
And that kid is awesome. So well spoken and intelligent. I wish more of the youth were like him.
