What a concept, a T-Shirt Supporting the 1st and 2nd Amendments is not Criminal. Charges Dismissed Against Student Refusing to Remove NRA T-Shirt

Lame T-shirts with meaningless 60's "peace" symbols abound and are supported.
But the school says Nyet to the NRA T-shirt. The school's band leader and school administration should go back to school and learn American Civics. Unfortunately and obviously, Civics is no longer taught. m/r

6/28/13 - FOX NEWS -- The West Virginia eighth-grader arrested after refusing a teacher's demand he remove a National Rifle Association T-shirt he wore to school won't face criminal charges after all. Jared Marcum, 14, was charged with obstruction following the April 18 incident after police who were called to Logan Middle School school said he refused to stop talking. The case generated national headlines, as Marcum's family and attorney, Ben White, claimed the demand that he remove the NRA shirt violated his right to freedom of speech. On Thursday, Logan County Circuit Judge Eric O'Briant signed an order dismissing the charge.

Marcum's mother, Tanya Lardieri, told WOWK that she was overcome with emotion after signing a dismissal order relating to the charge. The boy's father, Allen Lardieri, said the couple is just glad Eric's legal troubles are behind him.

"It should have come sooner but it's done and we don't have to have that concern anymore about him having a criminal record," Allen Lardieri told WOWK. "I'm just glad that it's over. His mother is glad it's over."
