Doesn’t the ACLU have anything better to do?
Posted on December 20, 2006
Butt painters, people that can’t prove legal citizenship wanting drivers’ licenses, child rapists who want to prowl parks, raging hate-trolls who revel in the deaths of troops, homosexuals and Amish schoolgirls, porky terrorists in Gitmo who spit at Marines…the ACLU’s clients certainly are a tasty slice of America…
The latest inanity : ACLU sues WVW over mohawk
KINGSTON  A brouhaha over a student’s hairdo has landed the Wyoming Valley West School District in county court.
The American Civil Liberties Union sued the district Tuesday saying eighth grade student Donovan Fortney is being unjustly punished for his new haircut, a mohawk.
“He’s being treated like a discipline problem for nothing more than the style of his hair,†said Paula Knudsen, the ACLU attorney representing the eighth grade student and his mother.
The district has vowed to keep the student in a special room for disruptive students  called in-school suspension  until he changes his hair. The child’s parents, Michelle Kolomber and Len Fortney, do not want the child’s hair to be altered, according to court documents.
OK, if the school allows another kid to wear this idiotic hair style (as the district solicitor admits later in the article), this kid should be allowed. The “this one is too high” standard won’t “stand up” in court. Why not just apply the standard consistently or adopt a dress code? That would end this garbage and allow the school to educate…well, as much as public schools even do that these days anyway.

Why does the phrase “some people just have way too much time on their hands” come to mind?
It is the schools property and they should have the right to make the rules. If you want a different set of rules then the student can be home schooled or go to private school that allows it.
