Teen Sues to Wear T-Shirt at School
by Kevin Boie
A Waxahachie High School sophomore is suing the school district for the right to wear a T-shirt supporting John Edwards as a 2008 presidential candidate.
The Liberty Legal Institute on Tuesday announced that it was suing the Waxahachie Independent School District on behalf of Pete Palmer and his parents.
According to an institute representative, the district violated Palmer’s constitutional right to free speech when it sent him home from school in October for wearing the shirt, threatening him with suspension if he did so again.
