"Without school uniforms, kids should be able to wear whatever the heck they want."

No, they shouldn't. Minors are not adults, and the idea they should have all the same rights as adults is ridiculous. For that matter as an adult, try wearing a T shirt to court that says "F*uck this judge" and see how far that gets you.

Legally, someone could wear that shirt. Would it be wise? Probably not.

Also, there is a big difference between wearing something obscene into a courtroom, where the judge has total authority, and wearing something political into a public classroom.

The school may establish rules such as shorts/skirts must reach the knees etc. And schools may make restrictions regarding obscene or vulgar speech. But schools may NOT make restrictions on political speech.
