Pushback against stupid gun-hating Leftists

We read:
"A Rhode Island boy whose school banned a hat he made because the toy soldiers on it carried tiny guns was awarded a medal on Friday for his patriotic efforts.

Lt. Gen. Reginald Centracchio, the retired head of the Rhode Island National Guard, gave 8-year-old David Morales a medal called a challenge coin during an appearance on WPRO-AM's John DePetro show. Centracchio said the second-grader should be thanked for recognizing veterans and soldiers...

The school has said David was offered the chance to wear the hat if he replaced the toy soldiers holding weapons with ones that didn't have any. Centracchio said that didn't make sense because soldiers are armed, and met with school administrators Thursday to share his concerns.

Also Friday, the Rhode Island chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union said it sent a letter to Coventry Superintendent Kenneth DiPietro saying the school's policy was an unconstitutional violation of students' free speech. It called on the district to revise the policy.

Good to see the ACLU doing something useful

That the aclu is on the boys side proves this case to be a clear 1st Amendment violation. But the much larger problem is that, this type of "PC-ized", EduNazi mentality is very wide-spread in our system of public education. Our children are not being taught, they're being indoctrinated by leftists. And in the future, this country will suffer for it. WAKE UP PARENTS!

Is the national aclu supporting this or a local chapter acting alone?
If the latter, maybe the boy's parents are donors or members?
