A Tennessee middle school football coach is looking to the future after his termination for alleged political incorrectness.
Twenty-six-year-old
Bryan Glover is a Christian who co-wrote a song called "When You're
Holding a Hammer, Everything Looks Like a Nail," which takes a dig at
the current administration and what he believes to be the wrong moves
for the U.S. He sent a link to his song to everyone in his personal
e-mail inbox, which included parents from Grassland Middle School, where
he coached football.
"An hour-and-a-half after sending out the
e-mail, I got the phone call from the head coach saying that he had had
complaints from parents; he was told to fire me," the former coach
accounts.
He notes that he was surprised by the allegations against him.
"When
the coach first called me, he said his phone was blown up with parents
saying that I was being politically incorrect -- quote, unquote -- if
you will, and that some of them were even reading into racial overtones
in the song," Glover explains.
But he points out that the lyrics make no direct or indirect reference to race.
A number of supportive parents met with the principal and asked for
reinstatement, but the school district is remaining firm. The Williamson
County superintendent refuses to say why the coach was fired, but he
speculates that it could be an issue of how he obtained the parents'
e-mail addresses -- even though the e-mail was sent from his personal
account.
Meanwhile, Glover says he has read the Constitution and
believes he is standing on firm ground because of the provision for
free speech.

Free speech ain't free unless your a liberal.
