> ...a teacher saw Taylor wearing it and told her to go to the office...

Let's have that teacher's name and contact info. They need a lesson in the price of freedom. Maybe they can lose a little of theirs, so that they appreciate it more.

This nonsense has to stop. Parents need to take the schools back no matter where they are located, every day it just gets more ridiculous.

I'm betting that Abdul will wear a Support our Allah shirt or the like. That will cause a quick end to dress down day where every day is uniform day.

A real head-slapper. I guess it’s too much to ask that teachers and administrators have common sense.

I used to regularly invite military recruiters into my classroom. I could see the libs gagging and enjoyed every minute of it.

I'm sure now they will eventually try to ban the Marines because their rank insignia shows two crossed rifles. They can also ban the Army because a CIB depicts a musket. Zero tolerance!!

I really think mom is overreacting here. Usually, in these cases, it is the school personnel acting leftist, but it appears here that the school was enforcing an existing policy.

The students are expected to wear shirts with collars, and this particular shirt did not have a collar. I doubt the school was acting against support of the troops.

Commander of Fort Campbell needs to have the DoD School system at least fire the so-called teacher who started this.

You just can’t make this stuff up. Quick! Someone cue the “but my school is a GOOD government school” apologists!

How many stories are out there detailing the latest abuses and yet how many people still send their kids to these places?

I have a word that describes parents who have the ability to send their kids elsewhere yet don’t: complicit.

Teachers and education bureaucrats like this all need to be fired with no pensions.

Disgusting pieces of human scum.
