Tolerance? Brave 8th Grader...

This is an amazing experiment by young Catherine Vogt. I will not plagiarize the article but I recommend reading it.

I find it interesting that 1) a 14 year old girl came up with this... she gives me hope for the world and 2) that the supporters of the candidate of "HOPE" and "Change" would be so rabid and hateful because of a T-Shirt.

Amazing and interesting at the same time.

My daughter is 15 and is in the Young Republicans club. They had a sign at her high school that correctly stated that Dr. Martin Luther King was a Republican and received many slurs for having such a sign. There could be many books written about discrimination and how it is not unique to skin color as a result of this past election.

I suppose I shouldn't be surprised, but this article is very upsetting.

'The party of Lincoln' - he probably was a Republican.
