OH Students Forced to Remove LGBTQ Friendly Shirts
Ohio high school students faced disciplinary action early this week for wearing t-shirts that featured messages supporting LGBTQ equality, Feminist Majority Foundation reported Nov. 1. Drew Dennis, litigation coordinator for the American Civil Liberties Union Ohio, said, "It sounds like the school is trying to silence the students who are expressing an unpopular viewpoint on the basis that there will be individuals who disagree with that message." The school has a history of tolerating other politically minded t-shirts, like "Students for Life" and even hosted a Romney campaign rally at the school this past week.
