A West Virginia teenager returned to class Monday wearing the same National Rifle Association T-shirt that led to his suspension and arrest after he refused a teacher's order last week to remove it.

Other students across Logan County wore similar shirts, which display the NRA logo and a hunting rifle, to school in a show of support for 14-year-old Jared Marcum, said his lawyer Ben White.

Re: 8th-grader suspended, arrested, charged for NRA shirt

Obviously, this is ridiculous and I don't support it.

But, with all of the suspensions for finger-guns and pastries chewed into the shape of a gun, their reaction, which unreasonable is at least fairly commonplace.

I do wonder whether an NRA shirt without the gun image would have resulted in the same reaction.

With everything that has been publicized about zero tolerance regarding knives and guns, any student that pushes these limits is either looking for attention or is, at the least, misguided.

A more correct thread title would have been "8th-grader suspended, arrested, charged for shirt containing gun image'
