Pretty fucked up when you can't wear a shirt that has a constitutional meaning to it

Reminds me of those kids that got kicked off campus for wearing red white and blue shirts during cinco de mayo

What parents send their kids to school with a tee like that? Fucking rednecks!

It was bound to happen ...

The schools have a zero tolerence for violence for some time now. You can't wear shirts with guns on them.

You're kidding right?

I consider the shirt patriotic, The Superior court says it's a right, the teacher should be taught that not everyone in the world thinks like he does.

Maybe you grew up wearing uniforms in school?

Doesn't say that in the school dress code

probably not :2 cents: there are a lot of assholes that support censorship. remember when elvis danced around? they said he had the devil in him. when nwa rapped about life in tha hood. fuck the government :2 cents:

I'm not sure about that school's policy but most public schools do not allow you to wear anything gun related on your shirts and will ask you to turn it inside out, provide you with a new shirt for a day, have someone bring you a new shirt, or send you home...it's been like that for quite awhile.

Schools are no gun zones

"Logan City Police Chief E.K. Harper told ABCNews.com that Marcum was not arrested for wearing a t-shirt, but for "disrupting the school process."
"His conduct in school almost incited a riot," Harper said."

You guys even bother to read the article?

Logan City Police Chief E.K. Harper told ABCNews.com that Marcum was not arrested for wearing a t-shirt, but for "disrupting the school process.

seems like he was wearing the shirt, teach said turn the shirt inside out, he attempted to engage the teach in debate and the class flipped out, he's in trouble

sounds like gfy.

I know of a case of a kid wearing the Banksy panda being told to change his jacket. No guns in that school district.

i can almost guarantee you that kid's daddy own a gun store!

It was inevitable..:2 cents:

Pretty stupid to arrest the kid when the parents are the ones who buy his clothes, but I still wouldent send my kid to school wearing a shirt like that anyway, pretty dumb parents tbh

Wow, this really puts how old I am in to perspective. Back in my Primary School Days, you could bring a toy gun to school and wear it like a cowboy, nobody thought twice or looked twice, it is rather sad how different things are now. They say we weren't properly diagnosing mental problems back then, but even so-- we didn't have school shootings every other week back then either. (I attended school in the 70's/80's). Back in the good ole days where your parents were allowed to beat your ass for doing something stupid and you never thought about doing it again. Now a day-- a kid has a scab on their knee and Child Services swoops in to remove them.

I dunno-- things just seemed so much LESS complicated back then.

- We didn't have computers and Atari consisted of moving a square around your TV screen so we got out there and played. We could eat 10 Twinkies because we burned them off riding our bikes 10 miles a day.

- We didn't have email/texting, so getting passed a note in school saying that "so and so" likes you, check, YES or NO if you like him back. LOL.... That was so exciting.... (NOT that I wish the internet away-- I'm just saying that things were very simple back then. The best years of my life.


I'm sometimes seriously grateful I was born when I was-- I have been able to see some amazing things (inventions that 20-somethings take for granted because they were born with the Internet, Cell Phones, etc.) Back when I was in High school, you were TOTALLY TUBULAR and RADICAL if you had call-waiting or 3-way calling. lol

I'm not terribly excited to see where the future will lead us. For the most part, I've seen enough and other than some amazing technology, I'd rather go back in time when Divorce wasn't a "Hobby", Watching (mentally ill) people smash their balls (The Jackass films) wasn't entertainment and we didn't help bring pedos into the "Internet Age". (The ONLY down-side to the web). I know, I'm trapped in a time warp when the Brady Bunch was a hot show.

It doesn't?

Let me guess - the gun nut board you post on has it's panties in a bunch over this but no one bothered to read the article or the link to the school dress code.

Nothing says violence like an assault rifle, and once can only imagine four months of Sandy Hook how a grade school might not be too keen on this. Even more so with it being an AR15.

i think you are on to something, i grew up round that time too and while my first reaction to this story was "wtf is that kid's parents letting him wear that to school?" i then remembered i grew up with toy guns and such, although i don't recall being able to take them to school. this kid is 14 too, i'm not sure what's appropriate for that age in 2013.
i don't know what to think about this story. kids and guns i disagree with today but i grew up when it was ok, that's weird to me. :)

It does not say he was arrested for wearing the shirt. He was arrested in relation to the behavior surrounding his interaction with the teacher. There is a difference between those things.

Should the teacher have handled it differently? I wasn't there but likely the case. However, I can also understand why the teacher would object. I graduated in 1995 from an area with a lot of hunters and I am pretty sure my teachers would have objected then too.

the fact that it happened in west virginia helps me understand the shirt but now i'm really confused about the teacher's actions.

My suspicion is that there is more to the story. Perhaps a history of behavior issues with the kid and/or between him and that teacher. Teachers are human and do things that maybe they shouldn't or handle them less well than they should. If the parents are the one bringing the story to the press, the kid is the one in the right in all the tales.

either that or that teacher was a substitute from a state many states over! right? we're talking we va.......

This country is quickly going down the shitter :2 cents:

Where does this happen, do the parents encourage this BS or do they steal the kids like they do sometimes where there is civil "discontent" (Hey, I didn't make up the terms, I think "discontent" is a damn joke. More ppl were killed in other parts of the country than anyone knows because the news just doesn't think it's as important.

I am NOT minimizing what happened in Boston (That, to me, as an American was an act against Americans, and I will NEVER support that, no matter who anger is directed at), but it seems to be carried out by two mentally unstable kids (one perhaps brainwashed by his older brother/his idle), not jihad extremists and if they were.. God Help Them.). But ALL our cable stations were taken over for 2 days because of those 2 kids, but do we ever see 2 day long feeds about attacks on OUR troops or 100's a day killed over in Darfur where they kill Women and Children for Sport... and the list could go on.)

So the NRA owns part of the constitution?

That is actually what is pretty fucked up.

The dress code for my sons school district says he cant wear a shirt like this to school or any school related event. Along with many other rules, They are pretty much just 1 step away from uniforms.

Kids hate uniforms, after you've been to a school with uniforms before a free clothing school, you learn something.

Uniforms kill "tramp", "skank", "hippy", "goth", "punk", "trash", etc. Stereotypes.

Question is this: Wear them before you leave school or after?

nba tshirt? oh what a fucking shit!

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

Funny how everyone here that says they are against his tee shirt will be first in line to see the next shoot em up movie.

It's a stand on the 2nd amendment, kids should be as passionate about the constitution as this kid.

NRA doesn't, they just help protect it

He disrupted the school process by refusing to turn his t shirt inside out, which is not against school policy.

Putting a different name on it, doesn't make it right

un believable children can use guns ohhhhh

Ever heard of insubordination?

Did anyone read the article, I guess not, because he came back the next day with the same t shirt on

I believe in it if the teacher is wrong

Hows that working out?

"Damn pigeon. I fuck him up"

LOL your mind is gone.

I see an AR-15 and I think Military something to be proud of for the USA. Yes even on Children, and the RIGHT to wear it.

More violence is from handguns than an AR-15 heck I bet it doesn't even measure on a chart.

From the owner of an AR-15 who doesn't want his neighbors owning one for no real reason . Sure sounds like a dictator to me. Do as I want not as I do.

Seems to me you are more scared of Legal ownership of your neighbors just because he has multiple weapons just in case, than the criminals...

Just when I thought you couldn't be more of a Troll....

Yeah if the Shirt will "cause" or "say" Violence, Umm Have they seen TV or Video games these days... HAHA

I'm not scared of anything. Ever.

I support the 2nd amendment; I have the same weapon that was on his shirt. However, I believe in common sense. If I send my kid to school with a shirt that says "I like boobies" my kid is going to be sent home. Anyone who thinks otherwise is stupid. Schools have a zero tolerance policy on weapons, and wearing a t-shirt with an assault rifle on it is clearly against that policy.

You can't wear clothes with guns, any other weapons or drugs on them either to school.

No tolerance and rightfully so.

Such good slaves here.

guns solve issues sometimes. when talking doesnt work :2 cents:

Funny you pick that, because they do wear those I Love Boobies shirts to School, No Problem. They wear them to support Breast Cancer, and it is a freedom of speech.

Now I do agree with dress codes, But also you need to look Back at History. Use to take toy guns to school, wear all military stuff, a lot less violence.

Why Stop at Schools? If a Shirt is going to have some magical influence at school, what about video games. What about learning about the Wars? So on so on.

It is the pussification of Political correct BS that is making this country into what is is becoming.


"This morning, he returned to school wearing the same t-shirt, White said."
"Logan County students wore NRA t-shirts today in solidarity with Marcum, White said, adding that Marcum is an honor roll student eyeing a career in the military. Zigmond did not mention any disciplinary action during school today."

Do any American schools have uniform or is it always wear-whatever-you-fancy day?

"On top of his arrest and trip to the police station, Marcum was suspended from school for one day. This morning, he returned to school wearing the same t-shirt, White said.
White accompanied Marcum and his stepfather to a meeting at the school, where the principal, according to White, said that she "hates that it happened" to Marcum.
Logan County students wore NRA t-shirts today in solidarity with Marcum, White said, adding that Marcum is an honor roll student eyeing a career in the military. Zigmond did not mention any disciplinary action during school today.
White is confident that all of the evidence will work in the teenager's favor.
"There's no evidence that Jared almost caused a riot," he said. "They won't be able to produce any evidence to that fact. ... The teacher should have the ability to debate things with students. I don't care how you slice it. ... It was the teacher not acting like an adult. He created the issue."
