Dear Mr. Leavell,

I am a strong southern woman who has had it with political correctness. I do not know you at all. You are probably hard working and a nice guy, but the firing of Coach Joe Kennedy has driven me to write to you and ask, “What were you thinking?”

The First Amendment states: “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof, or abridging the freedom of speech.”

What part of that do you not get? Or are you driven by the political correctness we now live by, driven by atheists and the fear of the ACLU!

People like you are cowards. Of course you are on the left coast and your part of the country has departed, long ago, from the ideals of the heartland of America.

My son is a high school coach in Texas. What is the matter with you? Coach Kennedy did not force, coerce, threaten nor invite the football players to participate. He set an example that the far left, atheists and the ACLU cannot accept and you are afraid to stand up for Coach Kennedy’s constitutional rights.

If you don’t stand for something, you will fall for anything!

You and all who are driven to push your agenda down our throats will not be tolerated any longer.

I hope you hear me roar, because I am not alone. At least three presidential candidates — Trump, Carson and Cruz — and millions of Americans are fed up, and our voices will be heard.

God bless you and your family.
