Gay student banned from wearing gay friendly T-Shirt, sues school…
This is how change happens…
A gay student whose high school prohibited him from wearing a T-shirt designed to urge tolerance of gays is suing the school, saying it’s violating his rights to freedom of expression.
The mother of 16-year-old Maverick Couch filed the federal lawsuit on his behalf against Wayne Local School District and its Waynesville High School principal. Couch, a junior at the southwestern Ohio high school, has been threatened by school officials with suspension if he wears the shirt, which bears the message “Jesus is not a homophobe,” the lawsuit says. Officials at the public school told him the shirt is “sexual in nature” and is inappropriate there, it says.
“sexual in nature” Wtf? How does “jesus is not a homophobe” translate to “gays love dick”? Somebody?
