U. S. District Court Judge James Ware was ruling in a case involving students at Live Oak High School in Morgan Hill, CA, who were banned from wearing American flag t-shirts on the Mexican holiday in 2010.

The judge determined that the Morgan Hill Unified School District did not violate the First Amendment and said that concerns by school officials over possible violence justified censoring the pro-American message.

“The school officials reasonable forecast that Plaintiff’s clothing could cause a substantial disruption with school activities, and therefore did not violate the standard set forth – by requiring that Plaintiff’s change,” the judge wrote.

“This is nothing more than political correctness,” said John Whitehead, president of the Rutherford Institute. His organization, along with Thomas More Law Center, represented the students and their families in the lawsuit.

“If these kinds of decisions are upheld, they will destroy our First Amendment rights,” Whitehead told Fox News.

There is never a reason to censor pro-American messages! This is America!
That idiot liberal judge is aiding in inflicting judicial tyranny on our once great nation. We need a strong republican leader as president (Herman Cain). And something must be done about these disgraceful liberal judges making bad rulings.

Life-time appointments for judges need to go away, and put in place some sort of election process for them. If they make bad calls like this one, the people can get rid of them. (FIRE THEM)
