Dixon High School junior Clinton Boyer was in need of a sweatshirt, so he asked his dad, Derrick, for an extra one.
Derrick Boyer, 43, gave his son a mustard-colored sweater that reads "I'll stop hunting when they pry the gun from my cold dead hands." The sweater has a picture of a rifle, along with other hunting equipment.
Boyer and his dad might have thought the sweater was OK, but it didn't sit well with school officials Monday.

Quick, somebody get a shirt made up that says "I'll stop writing when they pry the pencil from my cold dead hands" and see if they get sent home for THAT.
If not, this kid should have a slam-dunk lawsuit. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
