Edited title to add “Candid”
I was watching my 6 year old nephew and we saw Peter Weller, so I told him that’s the guy who played Robocop. Of course my nephew wanted to meet him, he was nice and asked what my nephews favorite part of the movie was… unfortunately, my nephew excitedly said, “when you shot the bad guy’s wieners off!”
Have you shown your nephew one of the animated Robocop series yet?
No, but I might show it now. He’ll be hoping for groin shots, lol.
That’s the smile of a cyborg that shot a scumbag in the dick. Gotta love Peter Weller. He was also Batman!
And Buckaroo Banzai
Wherever you go, there you are.
It’s not my goddamned planet monkey-boy!
Home… Home is where you wear your hat!
I had that same shirt when I was in highschool got suspended until my parents could attend a meeting with the asshole principal and me.
Even my crazy ass parents just nodded along and pretended to care about what that asshole was yammering about.
Free speech covers curse-words and vulgarity too.
Great picture by the way.
Schools are allowed to exercise “reasonable” discresion
free speech is above that shit. The school can’t infringe on that.
That’s not what free speech means.
Anyone can say anything they want at any time. What people forget is that words may come with consequences.
Schools must have rules for a number of reasons, mainly because they are full of kids. Dress codes for schools apply across all students and must not discriminate. So, if a school has a rule that any words can’t be on shirts, no child can have words on their shirt.
Here is a breakdown for you: https://www.freedomforum.org/school-dress-codes/
What you are talking about has been in the courts a number of times.
Freedom of Speech is not freedom from the consequences of said speech.
By that definition even the Chinese have freedom of speech.
Well hate speech is free speech too. Schools don’t want to foster that behavior and so they can make and enforce policies to create the learning environment that they want. Also your argument works for bringing guns into schools too. The second amendment is above those school policies too.
Minors have limited rights anyway, but mostly in the voting side of things. An adult is defined as someone who has reached the “age of majority”. After that, they are free to make adult decisions and be fully accountable for their actions.
Schools are basically forced to accept responsibility for kids for a number of hours per day. As such, schools must create a safe environment for all students and maintain some kind of order and ensure the rights of other kids aren’t infringed.
Me exercising my rights can never infringe on the rights of others. Many people don’t understand that.
Out of curiosity, would you say the same applies to putting nazi propaganda or violent gore on a shirt and wearing it in a school?
no right is unlimited
When a student goes to school, the school becomes in loco parentis and the student doesn’t have protection from school officials. Children, on campus, general do not have protection for free speech, protection from unreasonable searches or seizures, or really any of their rights.
The school, acting as parents, can restrict their speech, search their bags, and confiscate contraband.
The school can even waive most of the child’s rights even when dealing with law enforcement until parents arrive.
A school if free to throw you off their premises for violating their rules too.
They are not forced to give you a platform.
They can, and they do all of the time

That’s not what free speech means, a school can absolutely punish you for your speech
Just a reminder that cops are bad enough and robotic cops will be even worse!
Also why is there a Photoshoped hole in Peter Wellers crotch? Did that guy finally get sweet revenge?

I think it’s a reflection and this is an photograph of a photograph. Taken with flash. A phone flash probably.
You can see the texture in the flash bit.
hmm I wonder if that comes up at all in RoboCop
