Branded a devil worshipping lesbian, Tresa Waggoner knows why God doesn't belong in school

faust video Tresa Waggoner, the Colorado music teacher who tried to introduce her students to opera and wound up forced to take administrative leave, is taking legal action against the Bennett School. Teaching at a K-12 school 25 miles east of Denver, Waggoner chose a video of Gounod's Faust, from the classroom shelf, to teach about bass and tenor voices, the use of props and trouser roles in opera. The latter resulted in the married mother of two accused of being accused of being a lesbian promoting homosexuality to school, and her choice of Faust got her labeled as a devil worshipper. Which trouser role are you?
And speaking of insanity in our schools, the Day of Truth folks are back and do they ever have an uncanny knack for mislabeling bullshit on their video.
