An Illinois father wants a school district to reconsider its dress code after his son was asked to remove a U.S. Marines T-shirt or be suspended, FoxNews.com has learned. Daniel McIntyre, 44, of Genoa, told FoxNews.com that his 14-year-old son, Michael, was asked to remove the T-shirt by eighth-grade teacher Karen Deverell during reading class at Genoa-Kingston Middle School on Monday. Deverell, citing the school's dress code, said the garment's interlocking rifles was problematic and had to be removed from sight, McIntyre said. "My son is very proud of the Marines, and, in fact, of all the services," McIntyre said. "So he wears it with pride. There are two rifles crossed underneath the word 'Marines' on the shirt, but to me that should be overlooked. It's more about the Marines instead of the rifles. This is not right. This policy that they have in place can obviously be loosely interpreted, so they need to change itI know why this female,* paid agent of the State did this. It's called "hoplophobia", or the "irrational aversion to weapons, as opposed to [sometimes] justifed apprehension about those who may wield them". Leftists apparently suffer en masse from this mental illness, rendering them absolutely incapable of seeing beyond the inanimate object to the sentient being that wields it. As a result, when someone commits evil with a weapon, the weapon itself is held responsible. I know that sounds crazy, that someone would hold a tool accountable for how it is used. But that is why hoplophobia applies here. It's irrational, it doesn't make logical sense. And this illness is pervasive in the safety/security-minded left.
McIntyre said his son was initially threatened with suspension before complying with Deverell's request to turn it inside out. He has worn the T-shirt to school many times before without incident, McIntyre said. "He was upset, he couldn't understand it," he continued. "He couldn't understand why a teacher would make him do that."
Then there is the cognitive dissonance displayed by objecting to a shirt that says "Marines" on it and crossed M-16s. I know that the Navy's present recruiting commercial touts their status as a "global force for good", but seriously, what do lefties think an "armed service" carries into combat?
* Far more women than men support gun control...thus are more likely to harbor negative attitudes towards firearms and firearms ownership. These attitudes cannot help but be expressed in state-run public school classrooms, staffed as they are by a plurality of liberalist women.

Very true; those of us in the Navy carry things far, far worse than just guns of any size! Also, that "Global Force For Good" does some pretty awesome (read terror inducing) things with those weapons.
Women like that just want to have a power trip. That is not my problem. What is my problem is that these women are never told to shut the hell up when they run their mouths. The silent treatment we "bless them" with merely makes them think they can say whatever hurtful, messed up thing they want in public.
If I had been the administrator there; and I heard that, I would have reprimanded the teacher.
Probably why I will never make it with today's "educators?"
women and their enablers are aware of what they have done to men and boys throuugh their various Instruments (State and "Church") and that such legalized collective mistreatment inevitably produces resistance
their collective power, and individual agency, stripped by the State, men have been forced into single-resistance units (just as they are isolated-out, as powerless individuals, by the gynocracy)
all this gun-grab nonsense is merely female collective fear of a backlash from the group that they have happily crushed and persecuted for a century
because the matriarchy will not back off their oppressions, but in fact continue to ratchet-up the destruction of maleness and fatherhood, violence born of desperation and anger is guaranteed
women know it, the State knows it, shit everybody knows it, but nobody can say it, bc that would reveal the root of the problem, and too many people dont want that revealed, the West operates off this evil now
they'd rather see every kindergartner dead, than to change their Sistem . . . even while they beat their breasts and loudly proclaim their grief Oh what a terrible thing how Oh how could such a thing ever have happened? oh! oh! etc
therefore we all must play this little game, like this female teacher . . . now Team Woman must squelch even the symbols of male anger and resistance to the Fempire (here, the kid's tee shirt)
it's not about the tee shirt, it's sure not about the jarheads, it's about the real war, underneath those surface dekes
continued denial means endless more incidents, small and large, from class suspensions to dead kindergarteners . . . which v much suits even further expansion of the Fempire (male = killer, pass VAWA, more Homeland Security, um mebbe we should get their guns while we still can?)
so brother against brother again, save as ever ... hm who always ends up benefitting from that?
cheers
And here was me thinking that this techer was exhibiting the female equivalent of "thinking with the little head".
He should have worn his "Vive La Revolucion" Che t-shirt. Since there are no actual images of guns on the shirt the teacher could then have ignored the fact that Che personally murdered hundreds if not thousands of people, and his movement even more. Then everything would have been OK.
"Then everything would have been OK."
Heh. More than that, prolly. Maybe even extra credit...
