With a

look at culture from a Christian worldview, I'm John Stone Street with the point.

Last month at West Virginia School District banned five middle school female track

athletes from participating in future events. They were punished for refusing to

compete against males who identified as female.

Well, the girl sued the school district and in a moment of sanity, Harrison County Judge Thomas

Bedell ordered that they must be permitted to participate in track meets while the lawsuit plays out.

West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrissey in fact filed an amicus brief on behalf of the girls,

applauding their courage, saying, quote, you saw in fairness and expressed your

disappointment and sacrificed your personal performances in a sport you love.

You exercise your constitutionally protected freedom of speech and expression.

These girls should be commended, not punished. We need to teach students

it's noble to stand firm in their beliefs and address their grievances within the protections

guaranteed by our Constitution. Good for him. These girls were willing to stand alone, but kids should never have to.
