And, another one.

Other countries are focused on their students getting educated in STEM. Our narcissist students are preoccupied with becoming social media heroes and instagram influencers.

A T-shirt slogan that read, “Why be racist, sexist, homophobic, or transphobic when you can just be quiet?” got a 13-year-old girl in trouble at school.

Renee Williams of Indiana posted on Facebook that her daughter got in-house suspension on Wednesday at Highland Hills Middle School for wearing the $20 item. “I am beyond upset by the events that happened today,” she wrote, describing how the girl was called out twice for her outfit. “...We are disappointed in the way she was singled out and treated.”

Activist parents and activist child.

Not happy about seeing 1st amendment rights eroded, but at least the school is spreading the love around to a liberal the same way they do conservatives.

Or some wise guys could turn her into a internet meme like Cora Segal known under the name of Trigglypuff.

Wear the t-shirt all you want... away from school. School is for learning, not making political statements. Not sure what is so hard to understand about that

Williams tells Yahoo Lifestyle that on Friday, her daughter was flagged down after gym class and brought into the principal’s office, after a teacher noticed her shirt. According to her daughter, the principal felt the words “Sex” and “Homo” were too eye-catching.

“She said my shirt was inappropriate and could be seen as disrespectful,” read a handwritten account by the student, posted to Williams’ Facebook page.

Seems to me, some homophobes in Indiana were the ones who went to far, not the girl.
