Father sues Pen Argyl Area School District, claiming discrimination against his sons

[The Straight Story]

A Pen Argyl (PA) man has sued the Pen Argyl Area School District claiming his mixed-race sons have been discriminated against by the district and its middle school basketball coaches.

A federal judge has shot down a portion of the complaint, however, and district officials consider that a sign the entire lawsuit ultimately will be rejected.

"You can see how the district puts big, fat, obese white kids and white, short weaklings on the basketball court, and they didn't play my kids," said William Blasi, whose sons are half white and half Chinese. "You can't deny the discrimination."

Superintendent William Haberl expressed confidence the suit will fail.

"If it weren't for , nobody would know his kids are of a different race or culture, because they don't even look at all Oriental," Haberl said.

3. This asswipe is a professional litigant.

He sues anyone over anything, and is the type of person that the courts call a 'vexatious litigant'.
