Anti-choicers become the new junior high bully

This just pisses me off. An anti-choice group in Rapid City, SD is suing the school district because of a middle school that didn’t allow them to use the auditorium to feature an anti-choice speaker.
The suit is claiming that the school’s community-use policy is “unconstitutionally vague” and impinges on free-speech rights. This “unconstitutional” policy that the middle school dares to apply says that “use of school facilities will be granted only when a proposed activity is suited to the available facility,” as well as that the school “shall not be used for political purposes” and lastly, that requests to host politically-related events will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
The good thing is that the district doesn’t seem to be wavering. An attorney for the district said its officials believe the policy is sound and are filing a response to the suit.
