Federal judge rules MA student's 'there are only two genders' T-shirt ‘invades the rights of others,’ is NOT protected by free speech

On Friday, a federal judge in Massachusetts ruled a shirt that read "THERE ARE ONLY TWO GENDERS" could be construed as bullying of a protected class and is not protected speech after a 12-year-old and his father filed suit against officials in the Middlesbrough Public School district for First and Fourteenth Amendment rights violations.

Judge Indira Talwani said in the court ruling, the boy and his father had "not established a likelihood of success on the merits where he is unable to counter Defendants’ showing that enforcement of the Dress Code was undertaken to protect the invasion of the rights of other students to a safe and secure educational environment."

"School administrators were well within their discretion to conclude that the statement 'THERE ARE ONLY TWO GENDERS' may communicate that only two gender identities–male and female–are valid, and any others are invalid or nonexistent," the ruling continued, "and to conclude that students who identify differently, whether they do so openly or not, have a right to attend school without being confronted by messages attacking their identities."

There are so many warnings about the criminalization of the truth that I feel like none of this is a surprise anymore.

There are only three genders: masculine, feminine and neutral. They refer to words.

There are only two biological sexes: M and F.

Everything else is a mental disorder.

You can’t have equal protection of the law, and ‘protected classes’.

The judged needs to be impeached and removed from the bench.

I figured it was a freeloading, scumbag refugee. Somebody needs their asses kicked for giving these foreign maggots control over the American people. This is the dumbest sh*t I’ve ever heard. This crazy judge needs to be deported.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Genesis 1:27

Add this to the shirt and it will be a slam dunk case for free speech.

these are the same “judges” who made Romney’s
lies into “Law” (because they were from S. Africa).

these “judges” burnt the US Constitution to impose
their twisted will, and the Republic was mortally
wounded (as they want — to this very day).

I consider the outrageous garb and actions of the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to be bullying of my faith!

Since the Bill of Rights was created, the left has been looking for a way to squash it. They found a way: give some people special privileges, and give them the right to criminalize thoughts and words that they don’t like.

a right to attend school without being confronted by messages attacking their identities

Curious.

I bet the kid with the shirt has HIS "identity" attacked every damn day, along with all the other normal kids.

And "messages" are not "attacks", not in the legal sense of "attack", anyway.

Only one way to fix this kind of cancer is to raze the phony law school that allowed her to graduate, shut down the state and federal BAR that gave her the ability to practice, and remove her court from funding into perdition. This is all they are pumping out of their sess pools these days.
