'BONG HITS' WASTED TIME, MONEY AND JESUS DIDN'T SMOKE REEFER

Somebody please tell me that taxpayers' money was not used to pay for 
the U.S. Supreme Court to waste its time ruling on the Bong Hits 4 
Jesus case ("'Bong hits' student loses," June 26). Are you telling me 
that there aren't more important cases than one where a spoiled brat 
got his feelings hurt because his principal took a sign down that 
referenced drug use?

Something tells me that Jesus wouldn't sit down to take a bong hit. 
Doesn't sound like his style. Joe Frederick "insisted the slogan 
meant nothing specific and was not advocating drug use." Then why 
bother pressing on with this case? His 15 minutes of fame is over 
now. Go get a job and become a productive member of society. I am all 
for freedom of speech, but let's be serious here.
