When Samantha Pawlucy, a local honor student, choose to show her support and wear a Romney/Ryan t-shirt in to her classroom on a casual dress day, she had no idea it would lead to a personal attack by a teacher. According to reports, Samantha's math teacher asked her if she had on a Romney shirt and when she confirmed the teacher ordered her out of the classroom.
Samantha declined to leave the room and stood her ground. As you can imagine this didn't go over well with the teacher who told her "You can't wear a Republican shirt in a Democratic school."
The teacher then tried to deface the shirt with a red marker then ordered Samantha to take the shirt off and she would get her another shirt. Samantha refused and someone contacted her parents. According to the district, the incident is being investigated by the principal and the teacher as been removed from the classroom. The district also released this statement: "The student was exercising her right to freedom of speech and she didn't violate any rules."
