Boom! They fucked your rights!

This story is from last month, but I had to put it on the backburner for a while.

In Walla Walla, Washington, the "zero tolerance" thought police is at it full-throttle. A student at a public high school there was suspended from school for 2 days all because of a sticker on her car. The sticker read, "Boom! I Fucked Your Boyfriend."

The girl and her family contacted the National Coalition Against Censorship to see if her constitutional right to free speech was violated. Here's a hint: It was.

But the school remained unconvinced, and of course apologists for the school quickly swooped down on blog comment sections to defend the school.
