Boy Suspended From School For Anti-Obama Shirt

Don't we still have a First Amendment?

Someone tell me how the shirt was "disruptive to the educational environment." Most likely, it simply offended a bunch of shameful and incompetent pro-union public school teachers (I used to work alongside these types).

I'm sorry, but the law requires a much more compelling interest in order to outweigh a student's constitutional rights. The boy's father says he plans to sue, and I say "go for it." This is the exact case I'd love to take on once I get my law degree.
