Daxx Dalton, an 11-year-old fifth grader at Aurora Frontier School in Colorado, says his first amendment rights are being violated after he was suspended for wearing a homemade t-shirt that readers “Obama is a terrorist’s best friend”.
The boy’s father, Dann, says the school made a major mistake by suspending his son for wearing the shirt: “It’s the public school system. Let’s be honest, it’s full of liberal loons.”
The school told Daxx that he had the choice of either changing his shirt, turning it inside out or being suspended. He chose suspension.
He said, “They’re taking away my right of freedom of speech. If I have the right to wear this shirt I’m going to use it. And if the only way to use it is get suspended, then I’m going to get suspended.” Paperwork from the school says he wasn’t suspended for wearing the shirt, but for willful disobedience and defiance.
The boy’s father says he intends to pursue a lawsuit against the district.
