"I have been told that my shirt was targeting a protected class. “Who is this protected class? Are their feelings more important than my rights?

I don’t complain when I see Pride flags and diversity posters hung throughout the school. Do you know why? Because others have a right to their beliefs, just as I do.

Not one person, staff or student, told me they were bothered by what I was wearing. Actually, just the opposite. Several kids told me they supported what I was wearing and that they wanted one to.

I was told that the shirt was a disruption to learning. No one got up and stormed out of class. No one burst into tears. I’m sure I would have noticed if they had

I didn’t go to school to hurt feelings or cause trouble.

I have learned a lot from this experience. I learned that a lot of other students share my view. I learned that adults don’t always do the right thing or make the right decisions.

I know that I have a right to wear a shirt with those five words. Even at 12 years old, I have my own political opinions and I have a right to express those opinions. Even at school.

This right is called the First Amendment to the Constitution."

Once upon a time, when America was great, when America was free, we used to teach our children to develop character. Character is a trait that has to be built by adversity. The more adversity a person went through the more character that person developed.

Character came in very handy if someone wanted to offend you. They could say whatever they wanted right to your face and you could easily just walk away without caring in the slightest.

Then one day and new idea infested the land. The bad back racist man with a huge beard and the name, Marx, strode into town. People immediately reject his false promises. But then Marx died and just when that happened some college nutjob read the lunatic ravings of Marx and actually, without give it any thought whatsoever, believed it hook, line and sinker.

Next think you know other intellectually inferior college professors all started believing the nonsense.

And from there the stupidity began to spread. And now here we are with half of America wanting to enslave, censor and incarcerate the other have who actually use their brains and easily see that there are only 2 genders.

They send middle school girls home all the time for having bare shoulders.

Lil Homie can handle it and make better shirt choices.

There's a difference between being a threat and deliberately looking to start shit.

That's what the kid was doing.
2 ups, 2y
How so?

how do you know?

And what's wrong with "deliberately looking to start sh*t"? Ever heard of Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District?

Obstacles hanging down to his high heels are enough, can't have any more in between him and the children when he wants to perv.

What's really bad, is apparently those aren't implants, they're completely removable. Which means she could take them off, or wear a smaller set when they're a safety hazard (such as in shop class).
But further more, wanting them that far outside a normal size range indicates a body dysphoria beyond simple gender dysphoria, and that they need psychological help accepting their body beyond what transitioning might (emphasis on might) help resolve.
But I have digressed greatly from the topic of this particular thread.

Nope... there was no citation for a violation of dress code... Nice try... LOL

There's this thing, I don't know if you've ever heard of it, but it was called...

Tinker vs. Des Moines Independent Community School District.

According to uscourts.gov, "In a 7-2 decision, the Supreme Court’s majority ruled that neither students nor teachers 'shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.' The Court took the position that school officials could not prohibit only on the suspicion that the speech might disrupt the learning environment."

You completely missed the point.

okay then.

If the dress codes specifically targets speech, no they can't.
Rules have to be generic and not target specific opinion. Things like no slogans or logos are fine. Things specifying what body parts must be covered (or in some cases uncovered, except for religious exceptions) are fine.
That clothes can only express opinions if the school agrees with the opinion, is not acceptable.

Except his shirt did not violate dress codes. It was explicitly about the speech. If they are allowing other students to wear shirts with slogans (i.e. black lives matter, ect.) They have to allow this.
Many school simply say plain shirts, no slogans, ect. And that's fine because all of the speech that may be on clothing is targeted equally. But they cannot single out a type of speech while allowing other comparable speech.

Because it's the SPEECH that they feel would be disruptive, not the clothes themselves, the ruling of Tinker vs. Des Moines applies. The fact that they, you, or anybody disagrees with the speech is entirely irrelevant.
