It is outrageous to let some pupils to express their opinions and not others.

Freedom of speech is a constitutional right. Let all have the same opportunity to express themselves without retribution. Shame on you Cobb County School District and the administration of Walton High School. You should be championing this issue not punishing those who exercise their constitutional right!!!

"Students do not shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate." Tinker v. Des Moines

Fair is fair! If no political clothing is your policy, apply it to ALL of your students!

I'm appalled. The teachers/administrators who enforced this action should face disciplinary action. The police officer should be removed from the school.

Everyone has a right to their opinion. Just because someone thinks differently doesn't mean you're opinion is right and the other person is wrong.

It is ridiculous that Walton would infringe on a student's First Amendment right to free speech, particularly in a partisan manner.

Equality for all not some. Either they can all wear political wear or they all can't.

Free speech. First Amendment. How can you say you love U.S.A. if you don't hold with this principle?

As the parent of a Cobb County high school student, I am appalled that a student would be forced to change their clothes over something like this.

The school abridging free speech in this manner amounts to institutional bullying. It's not to be tolerated.
