Where's the ACLU Now?

Not that I'm supporting them,..just pointing out more of their hypocrisy,...

Taken from Zebra Report:

Student Threatened with Suspension for Wearing "Homosexuality is Wrong" T-Shirt

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA, April 14, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) - A high school student wearing a t-shirt that stated: (front) "Tolerance is the virtue of believing in nothing", and (back) "Truth is truth - homosexuality is wrong" was threatened with suspension. The 'A' student, with no history of discipline problems, was removed from class and sent to the principal's office where she was told to change shirts or leave campus.

Her parents called the Pacific Justice Institute (PJI). "It is regrettable when parents have to choose which right their child will be deprived of - free speech or a public education," said Kevin Snider, Chief Counsel for PJI. One of PJI's attorneys immediately called the school and faxed a letter that same day explaining how students have First Amendment rights which follow them when they step onto a school campus.

PJI informed school officials that the student will continue to wear that shirt, and other shirts expressing her values and beliefs, at her discretion. The school has since stopped harassing this student.

Medic Musing:

I guess if the same student had a "I hate moral, Christian students" shirt on, the ACLU wouldv'e pounced on this case in a heartbeat?
