The Jackson City Schools board offered a constitutional justification of its own in voting 4-0 to keep the portrait up in its middle school, saying it must protect students' free speech rights. The vote drew cheers and applause from the dozens of people gathered in the elementary school gymnasium.
After huddling with attorneys in closed session for more than an hour, the school board said the portrait belongs to the student group that put it up, the Hi-Y club. The portrait's frame is inscribed with the club's name and the Christian-based service group is the portrait's owner, not the school, the board said.
The board said the portrait is part of a "limited public forum," and that the Jackson schools will allow other student clubs to hang portraits appropriate to their organizations.

Unconstitutional
5:31-Go live in another country if you don't appreciate it.
Many countries in Mid-East have plenty of space for you.
5:51 go fight for your country?
GOD bless them for standing up against the liberals. Growing up in this world today, children need to learn to pray to someone of a much higher power than the subjects here on earth.
Jackson is a little podunk town down in SE Ohio near the Bob Evans Farm homestead.
These folks have done it. Outsmarted the liberals and held their ground.
BRAVO!!!
The irony of a bunch of so called constitutionalists claiming a victory here is astounding. You people are a real piece of work. Your attitudes are so anti American it's not even funny. YOU should go live somewhere else.
9:10 Huh? Never mind what country, what planet are you reporting in from? Please go back and bow before your great and glorious picture of your God Obama, you great American.
joe just posted a video of barton's look at the founding fathers at the capitol. if you took time to look at that; you would see the ACLU, liberals, dems, progressives, communists, marxists, athiests and others should just shut up and go back to their rooms.
