9/11 T-Shirt School Suspension Lunacy (VIDEO)

September 14th, 2006 at 10:12 by MsUnderestimated

Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know this kid broke the “rules” a second time, but damnit, some rules are just beyond all common sense.

Ben Lewandowski was suspended for three days from Lincoln Park High School in Detroit, and for what? Wearing a t-shirt “with lettering on it.” The offensive lettering? A memorial to 9/11. Yes, Ben was told to remove the shirt, but came back to school with it on again, so technically he broke the rules. But again.. some rules are just stupid, and a 3-day suspension???? This is beyond ludicrous.

Watch the interview with Ben and his mother from Hannity & Colmes tonight here.

Sorry for the horrid punctuation and spelling. *blush*

Christian, that is outrageous. I heard on FoxNews last night that the ACLU was going to help this boy, but I haven't heard crap about it since then. Moral equivalency? Yeah, right. Thanks, Christian...

That link is to a recent story about a boy in Vermont. Backed by the ACL friggin U, he took his school to court and won after they told him that he couldn't wear a T-shirt that called Bush "Chicken-Hawk-in-Chief". It had the phrase World Domination Tour" and showed the President drunk and had images of a martini glass, a marijuana cigarette, and cocaine.

What is wrong with our schools today? What are we teaching our childeren about what "Free Speach" actually means?

It is so wonderful to see our young children undestanding the ramifications of events in the world today and to squash patriotism is typical liberal bunk. Yes, he broke the rules, but sometimes, some rules need to be broken.
