re: Cheerleader Free Speech Case Puts Liberals in a Bind

yea even though in a perfect world i would want her off the team, I am supporting ACLU in this one.

In HS one of my good friends was suspended for a football game because on friday after the pep ralley he was picking up a script for his parents and had his jersey on. Well an old lady parked in the parking lot called the school because he was listening to rap music. They told him he couldnt play that night because he was representing the school and was playing music that embarresed the schools reputation.

that kind of stuff is BS. lets say he lived in the NE and was flying an american flag from his car and that offended someone...should the school be able to suspend him for that? lets say it was the case like by buddies where he is wearing his football jersey, should he get suspended?

What if he had a reagon/bush sticker?

what if he had a biden sticker(i know, that would make him a stupid frick)?

where does it end? if the school is the one making the choice on what hurts the school reputation all it takes is a hardcore liberal or neo-con and you will see a shite ton of abuse.
