  1. After fighting they give up? Bad.
    After being challenged? Worse.
    Fearing a certain challenge? Worser.

    'Fearing a possible challenge' they give up? Wow. Now that’s cowardice. I’m glad they’re not representing me. Hope Hawaiians can elect better people next election.

  2. Another blow to displaying a belief in God.

    These people are cowards.

  3. It is really a shame that we've come to a point in society where publicly demonstrating a belief in God could be deemed offensive by some.

  5. Unfortunately, this is the direction society is heading.

    They'll show kiddy porn on MTV, yet prayers at a puplic assembly is a problem.
