Some of you might have heard about this or not... but the supreme court is about to take up the issue of whether or not faculty can stop a student from doing non-disruptive behavior. The article reads "ruling that school officials may not "punish and censor non-disruptive" speech" according to U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, which was appealed to the Supreme Court.
Man... over a banner that says "Bong Hits for Jesus"
Sometimes I think this country isn't so free afterall =/

Ok, I think I might just be about to open a can of worms here, but surely free speech, freedom of movement and in general living in a free country comes with a certain responsibility?
And to me holding up a banner that say insults a large portion of the worlds religion is clearly irresponsible. But the icing on the cake for me is the fact that he then sued clearly for financial gain. This kid needs to grow up real quick.
The can of worms has truly been opened...

Except it's the truth. If Jesus ever dandered into the Nes and asked for a bong hit, you can bet yer ass it'll be free!.
