This is what happens when liberals run things - nitpicking, over-regulation, and plain stupidty.
The boy has a name - and now he has to have it changed because the school board say's that it is a "threat"?
Have I been transported to another planet?
Beam me up Scotty!
Why would this necessarily be a liberal thing? Parents, regardless of political stance, tend to believe they know what is best for their child and, often, for other children. Whether they do or do not is not the point. The point is that this kind of overprotective, controlling viewpoint doesn't have a political label.
Because no self respecting conservative would make such a ridiculous rule.
Well evidence suggests otherwise. Looks like this school is in Nebraska which is leaning toward (strong) Romney. So chances are that a good amount of this school board is nice, religious, christian people who lean Republican. Just talking demographics here
And Conservative, do you know what that means? It means that they don't want to make changes. . so when this rule put into place (80's war on crack maybe?) they are going to be the ones least open to a liberal/open interpretation and instead will conservatively view the document and make a call based on what is written.
So i'm betting this is a bunch of traditionalist, follow the rule, administrators that are likely to be at least 50% republican.
