Town of Climax, MN Centennial shirts banned.

Considering the shirts were a celebration of the town's Centennial, I think it was wrong to ban them from the school.

Even though they said Climax --- More than a feeling ?

I hve seen a lot of shirts with worse messages on them!

Considering the slogan had been around for years, I think it was pretty silly for them to ban the shirts. It would be as bad as telling a teen that he/she can't wear a shirt that says, "Coke Adds Life" because someone else might think of drugs instead of a soft drink.

If it was a newly adopted slogan presented by some shock jock at a radio station, I could understand the fuss. But if it's been chosen by the city, I see nothing wrong with it.

I sent an employee home once for wearing a t-shirt with a caricature picture of two gays on it with the circle/slash sign over it...obviously suggestion he was opposed to gays.

As a conservative Midwesterner who was sent home from school for not wearing a belt on my khakis, I'd support a move to keep all t-shirts with language/photos out of our schools!

Not much sympathy from me on this topic.

There's a Climax, NC. Wonder what their slogan is?

There's a Climax, NY too. It's right down the road from Surprise

They need to change the logo. IMO.

Was it the one that graphically depicts the act (with two stick figures)? I can't stand seeing that one! I don't know what's worse -- someone waving their rainbow flag in my face or waving their anti-gay crap in my face. Both are separatist agendas that need to take a back burner.

Good for you for sending him home.

Take it to the city council... not the students.

They are 6 to 7 miles apart, about 14 minutes.

Strangely, coppertop can't wear a T-shirt with a beer label on it, but "Mr. Hanky, the Christmas Poo" and his "Endangered Feces" (showing a grid with stool from 40 animals on the endangered species list) shirts don't get a second thought from the school.

That's the one, Duck. Stick figures and all. He came back an hour later with a non-descript polo shirt.

Then you know what happened. It was predictable. He came to me every time he looked at someone else's t-shirt and reminded me he was offended. Which, in the end, only helped my cause further, not his.

He changed careers shortly thereafter.

Wonder if he went to work for a t-shirt factory?

All i can do is laugh at this one hehehe.

Climax NC is right between "Horny Town" and High Point"

:o!

LOL!!!!! I'm sure Climax, NC will be a nice place to rest once they drive down from Hump Mopuntain.

Oh, boy. This thread is getting out of hand.

Has anyone ever seen the Southpark Movie, and all the kids were wearing those funny Terrance and Phillip T-Shirts to school? Then an announcement came over the PA and said Anyone that was wearing Terrance and Phillip clothes had to go home and change?
