"The principal of Liberty High School in Hillsboro has agreed to apologize to a student who was told to go home or cover up his "Donald J. Trump Border Wall Construction Co.'' shirt in January.

Addison Barnes, an 18-year-old senior, was suspended for wearing the shirt backing Trump's immigration and Homeland Security policies. He then sued the high school, the principal and the Hillsboro School District, arguing they violated his First Amendment rights."


"Everyone knows that if a student wears an anti-Trump shirt to school, the teachers won't think twice about it. But when I wore a pro-Trump shirt, I got suspended. That's not right.''

Can you explain why the student shouldn't be allowed to wear this shirt?

Part of the principal's statement,

"feels welcome and safe in our schools so they can effectively learn. This was an instance where we were challenged to do both simultaneously and the decision landed on the side of ensuring student safety."

The shirt was unsafe!

Yeah, the idiots from Florida (who think they're "cubans, not hispanics"), look how it worked for them, now their precious little wet foot, dry foot policy is gone and their boy 45 didn't reinstate it) and Texas (who think they're white even though their name is Pedro Perez and they look like Danny Trejo), look how it worked for them, they're getting denaturalized and kicked out every day.

Their behavior doesn't explain your own actions and thoughts, though. So tell me, what happened? Who hurt you?

So, if "going to school while hispanic" is now not allowed, or else you're subject to harassment with stuff such as this, what solution do you propose, @Capn_Circus , @RE_expert44 and @Tmaster148 ?

Segregated schools? What races should go to what school? Maybe just keeping hispanics from going to school? What is your idea guys?

I'm not sure what that means. I'm not too good at responding to theatrics, particularly when a hispanic very well could have been wearing that shirt.

I have no idea what you are going on. The shirt he wore didn't break any normal school dress code rules that I can think of unless the school had an anti-politics rule in which case they weren't fairly punishing other students for wearing political shirts for the other side.

The apology and money is fair outcome of the lawsuit.

You are oddly trying to make it about race and then trying to assume my politics because I think this one instance is a fair outcome.

People get suspended all the time of bullshit , even defending themselves in a fight. Still trying to see how the people who hate dumb lawsuits are ok with this.

How is correcting a violation of the First Amendment a "dumb lawsuit?" Are you suggesting that people who have their civil rights violated shouldn't do anything about it?

According to the article, most of it will go towards lawyer fees. Hopefully he'll get to keep some of it.

Liberals claim tolorance but clearly they dont actually mean it when they suspend a boy over a t-shirt that is not even offensive.

Maybe after being pimp slapped and hurt money wise they will learn the true meaning of the word tolerance.

You aren't seriously suggesting that it was conservatives that suspended this kid "for the safety of the students," are you?

Hillary won 60% in that county. Your hypothesis certainly has some credence, if it didn't already out of sheer common sense.
