SCUMBAGS REPUBLICANS use their kids to spread lies
Edited on Tue Sep-23-08 11:43 AM by AlphaCentauri
An 11-year-old boy in Colorado was suspended from school after he refused to take off a shirt that read, “Obama is a terrorist’s best friend.” His father says that the school is violating his son’s First Amendment rights.

Daxx Dalton, a fifth grader at Aurora Frontier K-8 School in Aurora, Colo., wore the homemade shirt on a day when students were asked to show their patriotism by wearing red, white and blue, according to MyFOXColorado.com.

When he was given the choice of turning the shirt inside out or being suspended, Dalton chose suspension.

“They’re taking away my right of freedom of speech,” he said. “If I have the right to wear this shirt I’m going to use it. And if the only way to use it is get suspended, then I’m going to get suspended.”

Dann Dalton, the boy’s father — a “proud conservative” who has taken part in anti-abortion protests — told MyFOXColorado.com that the school is making a mistake by suspending his son.

“It’s the public school system,” he said. “Let’s be honest, it’s full of liberal loons.”

1. To use their rhetoric ...
He should pull his kid out of that school and pay to have him attend a private school.

2. Yup, the public education his son got was funded by taxpayers
If its to "liberal" for him perhaps he can cough up the thousands to send little Daxx to a private school so he can wear his little terrorist t-shirts. Gimme an effin break! My brother got suspended and sent home for wearing a Metal Up Your Ass T-shirt (Metallica) in the early 90's in highschool so accussing someone of being a terrorist and getting suspended for it seems just fine to me.

5. The kid came looking for a fight and the school did the right thing
The first job of a school is to keep kids safe and this kid was looking for action.

6. Repukes are cry baby lunatics who don't think rules apply to them.
they only run and hide behind the skirt of the 1st amendment when they want to terrorize people by throwing rocks from a safe distance (using their innocent kids to push their wacko agenda).

they're all chickenshits.

8. Daxx?? What's with these right-wing names: Bristol, Trig and now Daxx?
I'm sure that this kid is going to grow up to be a fine citizen without many "issues."

Not. "liberal loons" - somebody needs to lay off worshipping O'Reilly.
