In the instant case, a student's dress code violation led to an *arrest*. If the hobnailed boot fits...
My understanding of this was that there was no violation of the dress code (per the lawyer and the authorities at the school), and they had to admit such.
Obviously it wasn’t a violation of the dress code as dozens showed up in the same shirt later and were not required to change or go home.
Still no mention of the teacher who actually caused the problem. The student did not cause the disturbance, the teacher did.
Possible scenario: Teacher offers student 3 alternatives 1) cover with other shirt or jacket. 2) Turn inside out. 3) cover with tape or paper.
Student decides to become belligerent and rude.
Other students decide to feed into his behavior and he acts out worse since he has an audience.
But this is a possible scenario I am not jumping to conclusions, unlike some of the others here.
There have been multiple stories indicating that nothing in the school’s dress code prohibited his wearing that shirt. The teacher who instigated the confrontation made that part up.
