7th grader told his Star Wars shirt isn’t allowed in school

The school administrators said they did not reprimand Colton, although they could have required him to change or suspended him. However, the action may also have been a little too exaggerated since not only is a blaster rifle a fictional weapon used by fictional soldiers, but Colton’s shirt is a very obvious reference to the “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, which is days away from its theatrical release.

He wrote: ‘Star Wars shirt banned at school! However, his teacher told him to zip up the T-shirt and not wear it again as it represents a weapon.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens opens in New Zealand on Thursday.

Colton’s father Joe said that the school violated his son’s First Amendment rights and that his son would not hurt anyone.

“He’s a Boy Scout, active in church, volunteers at Brazos Bend State Park”, he said.
