I gotta agree, STE. School's need to be able to control things that happen in their environs, but only if it creates a danger. The case law that backs this up actually stems from a case back in the early 70's where a court decided that students had the right to wear peace signs and anti-vietnam war buttons in school. To me it's just another scary example of infringement on rights by schools that suspend people for out of school activities, companies that fire people for off work activities, and punishments meted out based on some pompous principal when it's not even against the law. Granted, the kid was a bit of an idiot with the sign, but a danger to other students??
