A high school senior in New Jersey was suspended from school and ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation after officials discovered he’d completed an anti-gun-control project for a class.
Student Frank Harvey said he completed the project last year after it was assigned by a teacher for a college readiness class.
“It was assigned by the teacher, and I got the topic, which was anti-gun control, approved by the teacher,” he told News 12 New Jersey.

| A definite violation of civil constitutional rights of the 1st and 2nd amendment. The school officials need to be brought to court and fined heavily and jail time would help their thinking. |

| Seems simple enough to verify the students statements. The school's actions and the apparent face-saving denial by the teacher; not so much. IOW, this report was the product of an assignment made by this particular teacher and the student received a grade for it. Surely she - and the school - can produce records, lesson plans, etc ? But this is not the first such incident resulting in a call for "psychiatric evaluation" by NJ educators. Since such actions pose the threat of life-long consequences, I'd suggest the student and/or parents obtain immediate legal counsel to preserve this student's rights and future. |
