At New Plymouth Boys High School, a student won a speech competition.
His chosen subject was ‘The decline of Western Civilisation’
The school then decided it might be offensive, so they then said, he never won…

Once upon a time, that school was quite elitist, and had a proud reputation in acadamia and rugby players (it’s a national sport here in NZ)
How the mighty have fallen.
Uncoffined 
Ironically, banning his speech has led to a wider audience hearing it than would otherwise have happened.

That young man did an exceptional job delivering his speech. It was well written and well thought out. 🙂
