A Vermont school district punished both 14-year-old Blake Allen and her father for stating that a biologically male student who identifies as a transgender girl is male. Now the Allens are suing the school district—and accusing it of retaliating against their family for speaking out.
Represented by the Alliance Defending Freedom, Travis and Jessica Allen alleged in a lawsuit filed Thursday in the United States District Court for the District of Vermont that Travis and Blake “were punished for expressing their view on a matter of profound public concern: whether a teenage male who identifies as female should be permitted to change in a girls’ locker room regardless of the discomfort experienced by the girls in that room.”
“In objecting to a male being in the room while the girls are changing, Travis and Blake each made comments underscoring that the trans-identifying student is in fact a male, including by using male pronouns,” said the lawsuit, which was first obtained by The Daily Signal. “Indeed, their view of the student’s maleness was foundational to their opinions on appropriate use of the locker room.”
“Yet, their remarks were too much for Defendants’ transgender orthodoxy—Travis was deemed to have ‘misgendered’ the student, while Blake was found guilty of ‘harassment’ and ‘bullying’—so Defendants disciplined both of them.”
Superintendent Layne Millington, co-principals Lisa Floyd and Caty Sutton, and the Orange Southwest School District Board are state actors and “violate the First Amendment” by attempting to dictate “what may be said on matters of public concern,” the lawsuit said, noting that these school district officials also cannot discriminate against speech on the basis of its viewpoint.

Sue them into the ground.
Speaking of Trans in Schools, anyone heard in update on
a certain Shop Teacher in Ontario, Canada?
Just trying to stay ‘abreast’ of the situation.
If you call a dog’s tail a leg, how many legs would that dog have?
Four, because calling a dog’s tail a leg doesn’t MAKE it into a leg.
Globohomo scum.
I was watching this the other night... This boy was hanging out in the girls locker room before being trans. He told the girls not to worry about it because he was gay. That might have been last year. The school admin just said deal with it. He also filed complaints saying that the girl was giving him dirty looks... Now this wasn’t Blake, but a different girl. Anyways somebody(s) needs a good ol fashioned ass whooping.
She spoke very well.
Heads need to roll at that school.
My first thought... I wondered if the school isn’t taking her seriously because of her lisp.
This confirms my decision to never have kids was correct.
I saw this crap coming a long time ago, but even I never expected to see it go this far.
“Trans” punk should be arrested for indecent exposure just like a “Strait” adult would be in any other setting.
No real difference between these punk “Trans” lunatics and exhibitionist in general.
The 14 yr old was impressive and well spoken
Exactly, Mr. Lincoln.
Once again, women are being pushed to the back of the bus by White Liberal males who pretend they are girls.
From Calvin Cooldidge to this.
In former days, that randy young man would be dealt with in a dark alley.
