Nationally Recognized Veterans' Advocate Removed from High School Ceremony for Being Conservative

The Southwick-Tolland-Granville Regional School District in Massachusetts worked with their local VFW chapter to dedicate a newly constructed foyer to alumni who were killed in combat while serving in the armed forces. A dedication ceremony scheduled for May 21 will highlight veterans and their sacrifices for their nation and their community. Kyle Reyes, an alumnus of the school, was scheduled as the keynote speaker. Now, the superintendent has removed Reyes from the program. The reason? Reyes is an unapologetic Christian conservative.

Reyes is a public speaker, runs a marketing firm, and has been named the national spokesman for Law Enforcement Today. He is passionate about supporting veterans and first responders, having created over 160 episodes of Behind The Uniforms. Reyes uses this video series to highlight the men and women who serve in the armed forces and first responders, giving them a spotlight and the opportunity to tell their stories.

Imagine his surprise when he got the news he's been branded an anti-gay bigot.

The school superintendent thinks Reyes would make the students feel unsafe. That’s the message delivered to Reyes, anyway.

Those who feel unsafe will always feel unsafe because it's a bigger world out here than they could ever imagine. Those who want to take high school with them are in for a serious disappointment.

Guessing the better plan will be to find a new superintendent. Finding a better one will be easy!

How Massachusetts has fallen. Ben Franklin, John Adams, Sam Adams, Paul Revere, John Hancock weep bitter tears!

It isn’t about feeling safe.
We all feel safe because there are no real dangers. All of the dangers are manufactured by the government, which is now criminal in every measurement.

It is about mind control.

6:52 Your rebuttal to 10:08 is 100% incorrect. There are no real dangers? So it was the goverment that killed my father and my cousin? It was the government that ran into me head on? Shit happens all the time, and the gov't has nothing at all to do with it.

Wish he’d come to Sby and speak. I’d be there to hear his insights and I suspect hundreds would join me.

So now we can convict citizens for having opinions that are different from that of others????
