| [WASHINGTONTIMES] A Florida mother says she received an apology from Kirby-Smith Middle School officials after an employee told her son to turn a GOP elephant shirt inside out. "Spirit Week" at the Jacksonville school recently inspired one student to show off his conservative credentials, but the outfit didn’t sit well with a staff member. The family, who spoke to local news hounds on condition of anonymity, said the shirt was described as a possible dress code violation. "It was Nerd Day, so he wanted to be a Republican nerd," the student’s mother said Oct. 12. A Duval County Public School spokesperson told the station that a staff member was confused about the difference between its employee dress code and the student dress code. |

| #2 Confused my whatchamacallit. This wouldn't have happened if there were not an atmosphere in the school which suggested and justified such actions on the part of the moron in question. They got busted, is all. |

| #1 A Duval County Public School spokesperson told the station that a staff member was confused about the difference between its employee dress code and the student dress code. ....and advised that federal judicial system has already ruled on the issue, and that the district couldn't afford a civil rights suit and any pay raises at the same time. |
