I don't see anything in that slogan that is offensive, or hate filled, maybe the kid does honestly feel this way about.
A week long suspension is absolutely ######ed, considering that you get in a fight and you probably get a three day weekend.
Or someone reports a bullying and the teachers wring their hands and ignore it.
But you put a slogan on your T-Shirt and its circle the wagon, and toss a kid out of school for a week.
Our priorities are really getting out of whack.
maybe they should bring back the strap. You there in the T-Shirt 50 lashes. You there giving that kid an atomic wedgie, well I didn't see nothin.

Maybe you don't, but what if someone else does? that's what the rule is there for as long as the message can be interpreted as an attack on someone else's religion/race/beliefs they can't wear it. I can see how it is offensive to others, and the fact that he ignored the principal and wore it for the amount of time he did (hope he washed it every day
) he probably deserved to be suspended. The duration of the suspension does seem a little excessive though, IMO.
