Toni Kay, now in high school, wore the socks and a prohibited denim skirt in an act of civil disobedience supported by her mother. A handful of other classmates joined her, wearing prohibited attire such as jeans and a "Jesus Freak" T-shirt. A little more info, it was staged from the beginning. The idea behind civil disobediance is that you are willing to accept the consequence of said disobediance.

See, it was staged. Now I side with the school. Parents are trouble-makers, probably ACLU members, definitely hippies/ libs. Kids are bratty. Narcissism run amok.
I still like Tigger tho.

And in this case the consequence was a complete judicial victory upholding freedom of expression even for people with children who are forced to attend public schools under our compulsory education laws. It sounds like the consequence was pretty well received.

They are not willing to accept the consequences of much of anything tho. Neither are the parents.

"The idea behind civil disobediance is that you are willing to accept the consequence of said disobediance."No. The idea is telling the petty tyrants to shove it and the consequences right up their butts.
