Uh. Duh. He was refusing to allow you to infringe on his 1st amendment rights. Hello

Children don't have the same 1st ammendment rights that adults do. Schools routinely forbid wearing clothes with sexually suggestive messages, profanity, gang colors, etc. You can argue about political messages (this shirt was crude and ugly and should have been banned for aesthetics alone)but the school is within it's rights to ban certain types of clothing, provided the ban is equally applied.

“Children don’t have the same 1st ammendment rights that adults do.”

My kids did and do have 1st Amendment rights. Then again, they are/were homeschooled and are not pawns or wards of the state.

Free your kids and the future follows.

I am not so sure that when it comes to political speech the courts would be so eager as you aver to uphold restrictions on speech.

See, nathanbedford, it didn’t take long for the authoritarian Rulebook Harrys to show up.

BTW, mjalisco555, just WHERE does it state in the Constitution of the United Stated of America that minors have no First Amendment right?
