Well see yesterday I woke up and put on my favorite shirt( I actually found a pic of it: (http://i46.tinypic.com/24mcaw9.jpg) ). So when I got to school this black guy kept staring right at me and I was like in my mind "Dude what the f***". So about a hour later the lady in the office called for me in my class to come to the office, so I went there and guess who was was there? The black kid who was staring at me. So we had argument over my shirt and then I said "Don't I have the freedom of expression?". The conversation ended with me getting suspended for three days b/c of 'racist clothing'.

"Don't I have the freedom of expression?"
Not in school, or on established and owned grounds at least. If that were true, you'd see a whole bunch of gang-affiliated themed clothing along with others that refer to alcohol, drugs, white supremacy, etc. But you don't.
See Bethel School District v. Fraser (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bethel_School_District_v._Fraser), Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tinker_v._Des_Moines), and Miller v. California (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_v._California).
What's that a picture of exactly? How is it racist? I guess I can't really tell on my iTouch.

wow.... gf noob.
acually if i was you i whould tell this kid:what the heck r u starring at ??
I can understand how some people would be offended by a confederate flag, but come on.
Well I understand how this could be taken as racist, there's a Feddy flag on the shirt and the kid was African American... We can kind of tell.. You shouldn't have been suspended though..
I think it's rather just. Your parents shouldn't have let you wear it to school.
Yeah, because his full intentions was to be a racist. Schools can be so ridiculous sometimes. They're supposed to make you change the shirt if it violates school policy, aren't they?
It created racial tensions, schools don't like controversy. A teacher gave me detention for being Agnostic before; a kid in my class called out that I was Atheist, and I corrected him. The teacher called me a bible burner and I got held after school for detention. My mom wasn't happy about that, she called the principal. Mr. Smith was fired. :D
But yeah, schools don't like controversy.
Wow...Racism is bad i can see that..but a confederate flag isn't always racist there were numerous reasons for the controversy between the north and the south not just slaves..
If i was you, i should come back with a nazi flag on your tshirt and tell'em whats racism.
that would be hilarious and also very racist(RACISM BAD))!!!
Schools can be really un-constitutional. :P
LMFAO @ Capz. that's suicide if you do that here. :-X
That's the stupidest reason to get a suspension.
Well, if you think about it, it's not. But they should've at least sent him home only for that day. People take that feddy flag serious, unless you just want an excuse to get someone introuble..lol...

No foreigner who opens his mouth in my country if I do that. They come here, because of some stuppid reasons. Life here, don't speak our language, don't work and just get money from the government because they are poor. Well, I am no racist, but I say, gtfout of my country.
x.x
I like how everyone thinks the American Civil War was mainly about slavery. Lincoln didn't care that much but it was a strong reason for the North to start the war. The real reason is because Lincoln didn't want them to suceed and for trade.

What do you mean by "Different way"?
(I am a very curious person btw)
People laying on their back ''PSSH'', and getting money from the government to life, Dont speak the mother language of the country where they life in, Kick those people back to their own countries.
Well, the thing is. America doesn't have a 'mother language'. America is a melting pot, forged from the many members of many other nations. There is no set language. English is used by the majority, but there's entire communities that speak completely different languages.
One thing I don't really enjoy is illegal immigration. I don't mind you speaking another language, just do it legally. ;)
