MONTGOMERY, N.J. – New Jersey education officials say a school was allowed to give detention to a sixth-grader who told a student who doesn't eat meat that "vegetarians are idiots" and that "he should eat meat because he'd be smarter and have bigger brains."
The Courier News of Bridgewater reports the state education commissioner's office ruled the Montgomery school district was allowed to discipline the student.
It happened in the Lower Middle School in 2014. School officials found the comments were harassment, intimidation and bullying because they targeted a "distinguishing characteristic" under state law. The student received five detentions.
The child's parent in 2015 challenged whether being a vegetarian met the legal definition of a distinguishing characteristic. A judge says yes.
The parent's attorney, Adam Wilson, says he doesn't plan to appeal.

The state decides what government-school students can say and what they can’t say.
Vegetarians ARE idiots and the people who protect them are a**holes.
Now put me on detention!
Make no mistake, it is a religion for some of these idiots.
BTW the kid got it right.
The kid is correct about vegetarianism. It is not a healthy diet. We evolved to eat meat.
Well there was a study done that showed that Vegetarians had way more heart problems a lot earlier in life.
Meanwhile if a kid said that “Trump voters are idiots”, he’d get a commendation.
What more do parents need to see/hear for them to wake-the-#$%$#$% up?
Homeschool. Do whatever it takes.
Oscar Meyer should give that kid a scholarship.
If he went on and on, I could see some teachers charging detention.
Not 5 though. Not even 2.
I went through much more and worse harrassment as a child and no one ever went to detention for that. I had to deal with it.
Vegan is an old Indian word that means "bad hunter"
What happens to teachers or students that harass/bully conservatives?
(I know the answer)
If they gave detention to a sixth grader everytime they hurled an insult at another kid there would be no sixth graders left in the school.

Actually, no, we evolved to eat anything.
[We evolved to eat meat.]
We did not evolve. We were uniquely created in the image of GOD.
Don’t run afoul of the PC police.
An important lesson for the years ahead.
thought control = behavior control. Conform or else = totalitarianism
I am so damn glad my son is in college now. And no, it’s not one of the pansy ass liberal douche nozzle colleges either.
Publik Skools...cess tanks for future liberals and jobs for those with worthless degrees in eddikashun.

Trump does a great job simplifying the election points and should consider making it like a contract with America.
The easy win issues are, in no particular order:
1) The economy, Hillary/Obama socialism created this 8 year great recession - Trump should win on this issue
2) The borders, Trump wins on illegal immigration, Hillary wants open borders
3) Fitness for office, Hillary is crooked - keep up that theme
4) Terror, Hillary is weak and Trump will be strong
5) National Defense: Hillary/Obama weaken the military and Trump will strengthen it.
6) Guns, Hillary wants to eliminate our rights, Trump supports the 2nd amendment
7) Government, Hillary increases it and our debt, Trump reduces it and keeps us solvent
8) PC, Hillary embraces and forces it, Trump eliminates it
9)
10)
