These cheerleaders have had their first amendment rights violated. The first amendment states that Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof. This does not say that religion needs to be separate from the state or that the state cannot show religious beliefs; it states the separation is that no laws are to be made respecting an establishment, or prohibiting the free exercise. That is the wall of separation. Laws will not be made to govern the church. These cheerleaders were exercising their right to display their beliefs and a government run establishment (public school system) is saying you can’t do this. Even if the cheerleaders were showing signs of any other religion, they would be right in doing so, and the school would be wrong to oppose it. Read the Bill of Rights people, and do not believe what media tells you the Bill of Rights are.

First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution reads “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”
