I am waiting for the chorus from other threads to line up and say "He must obey the school board. Learning to repect authority is the paramount issue in this matter."

Nice...just finished The Silver Chair the other night.
Good to see this kid sticking up for this, as well as it being covered by the media!

I am waiting for the chorus from other threads to line up and say "He must obey the school board. Learning to repect authority is the paramount issue in this matter." It really depends on what the school policy is; if it's applied consistently, etc. Schools are allowed to have dress codes. The official objection seems to be that is was 'offensive'. Offensive to who and why? It doesn't slander (or is it liabel) anyone. It's not promoting violence.

"I am waiting for the chorus from other threads to line up and say "He must obey the school board. Learning to repect authority is the paramount issue in this matter.""
A lot of districts prohibit ANY garment with text or graphics (other than manufacturer's logo). That's probably the safest policy, unless you're either willing to tolerate EVERYTHING or start picking and choosing and inviting lawsuits like this.

I am waiting for the chorus from other threads to line up and say "He must obey the school board. Learning to repect authority is the paramount issue in this matter." Not from me. I grew up with "Question Authority" as the moto. It is refreshing to see a kid standing up to it these days. I've often wondered why kids being told they could not pray in school simply did not do it anyhow. What are they going to do, suspend them for praying.
We used to laugh at their threats to suspend us. "You mean we don't have to come to school for 10 days! Surfs Up!"
They would give us some malarky about it going on our record. Yea, like we cared about that. Guess we saw then that the school record they tried to hold over our heads really meant nothing.
The kid in this story is to be commended.
