Judge Orders Charlie Brown Christmas Poster Put Back Up

KILLEEN, Texas – A Texas state judge has ordered a school district to allow a Charlie Brown Christmas poster be put back up, days after the district affirmed the principal who ordered it taken down.

School Bans Charlie Brown Christmas Poster Because It’s Too Religious

The staff member’s original poster.

Charles E. Patterson Middle School clinic aide Dedra Shannon had placed a large poster of Linus on her door with the words from the classic cartoon, “For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior which is Christ the Lord … That’s what Christmas is all about, Charlie Brown – Linus.”

On Thursday, a Bell County judge issued a temporary order, ruling the poster could be placed back on the door as long as it also had the words “Ms. Shannon’s Christmas Message.”

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton also appeared in court, supporting Shannon.

“Religious discrimination towards Christians has become a holiday tradition of sorts among certain groups,” Paxton said following the decision. “I am glad to see that the court broke through the left’s rhetorical fog and recognized that a commitment to diversity means protecting everyone’s individual religious expression.”

Said Shannon, “I am so thankful that the court ruled in my favor and that Killeen ISD’s efforts to ban my Charlie Brown Christmas poster have failed.”

The Killeen Independent School District board on Tuesday voted 6-1 to develop new guidelines for the school system related to Christmas decorations, essentially affirming the principal, who had ordered it taken down.

  • fire the principal and immediately have a recall election of those 6 school board members!

    • Definitely, and it’s high time the ACLU starts losing all their law suits against Christian crosses and nativity scenes, etc. The clock needs to be turned back 50 years. Remember the elementary Christmas music performances which were adorable watching the kindergarten thru 6th grade classes sing. Some schools had stage scenery and skits. But the progressives which are REgressives have destroyed everything good and innocent and precious.
      I was chosen to be the Virgin Mary in our junior high Christmas program many decades ago. All the parents attended and none of the parents complained about the sensitivity of some delusional lone idiot. Teachers need to put MERRY CHRISTMAS back in their rooms and defy the outrageous teachers unions, principles and the hypocritical moronic atheistic board members.
