A federal judge has ruled that a New Jersey school may not forbid children from wearing Hitler Youth buttons, in their efforts to protest school uniforms.

Judge Greenway said there seems to be no indication that the buttons would disrupt the learning process and the children will hold their first ammendment right to free speech. An injunction was issue to prevent the banning of the buttons.

The button has rows of similarly dressed men all facing the same direction with the words No School Uniforms.

Pretty well thought out for 5th graders. Congrats to the level headed judge and the students with the courage to fight conformity.

The military sent a letter to the human right lawyers for the inmates, back in England and suggested the attorneys had provide the underwear to the inmates. The lawyers responded by declaring the accusation “patently absurd”.

The brand of the contraband underpants is called Under Armour and is popular with the army people, the lawyer suggested that investigators be certain they weren’t purchased on base.

The colonel in charge of the jail says the concern is greater than underwear, and is worried that they may obtain other items which may compromise safety.
