"Why do you keep wearing those shirts when you know that they annoy me?" the principal allegedly asked.

The truth is annoying to the Liberal/Marxists.

So, students can go to class wearing shirts like “Coed Nude Cheerleading” or “Stop the hate - kill everyone” or “All your %#tches are belong to me”, but he can’t wear something expressing dislike for abortion.

Definately a public school.

May I assume that the so-called ACLU will not rush to the aid of this student? Perhaps he should just wear a “Che” T-shirt, then not only could he go to school, he could work for Obama.

Blooming idiot! Without more kids, that joker is out of a job! Relating it to a commercial enterprise for just a sec, what kind of shortsightedness makes it impossible to see that the ultimate end to your belief system leads to the closure of your industry due to lack of raw material to turn into finished product?

I am not sure we want our schools to be an environment where every kid with a political statement should be permitted to wear a tee-shirt proclaiming his or her ideology.

However, if we do permit the kid with the Pro-Life tee-shirt, we will also have to permit kids to wear Obama, Pro Choice and Anti War tee-shirts.

Hutchinson school district policy specifically states that schools are not to "abridge the rights of students to express political, religious, philosophical, or similar opinions by wearing apparel on which messages are stated." The policy does prohibit lewd, vulgar, obscene or profane messages. ...Sounds like the school doesn't have a leg to stand on. Remember though, that some opinions are more equal than others.

the school principal called K.B.'s homeroom and ordered the boy to his office. "Why do you keep wearing those shirts when you know that they annoy me?" the principal allegedly asked. ...Assuming that this is true (a huge assumption, given the general quality of the average journalist), then there's the crux of the matter. It's just a petty tyrant flexing their muscles.

“some of the kids were starting to ask questions.”

Well now, we certainly wouldn’t want the kids asking questions. /s

Given that school district policy is to allow students to wear clothes expressing political or religious opinions, the school doesn’t have a leg to stand on. No way in this day and age is there any kid old enough to read who isn’t already at least somewhat familiar with the abortion issue, so I don’t by the “disruptive” claim. Personally, though, I don’t think schools should allow clothing carrying any kind of “message”.

His courage, however, was met with resistance. According to the boy's attorney, his principal and teachers told him "not to wear the T-shirts, publicly singled him out for ridicule in front of his classmates, removed him from class, sent him to the principal's office, forced him to turn his pro-life T-shirt inside out, and threatened him with suspension if he did not stop wearing the offending pro-life T-shirts."

NOW WHERE IN THE HELL ARE THE PARENTS????? DOWN HERE, MY SON WAS GOING TO BE SUSPENDED FOR BEING LATE TO SCHOOL, EVEN THOUGH IT WAS OUR FAULT AS PARENTS. WE RAISED HOLY HELL WITH THE PRINCIPAL FOR PUNISHING HIM FOR OUR MISTAKES. ARE THE PARENTS SPINELESS SISSIES???? DO THEY JUST SIT THERE AND LET PRINCIPALS, TEACHERS AND OTHER THUGS ABUSE THEIR CHILD LIKE EFFIMINATE WIMPS??? OR...is this just another ploy to pi## people off and raise money?
