For the same reason this kid can wear this shirt, someone else can wear a shirt with Bible verses on it. If one goes, the other goes. So, thank your lucky stars that the judge allows the shirt.
You act like this is a conservative phenomenon...
Elementry student barred from wearing t-shirt depicting US soldier Student suspended for wearing "Abortion is Homicide" shirt. Student suspended for wearing "Redneck Pride" T-Shirt sues (Court decided correctly here as well)
...There's so many more...
Seems that it's not just conservatives who get their panties in a bunch over something not in line with their views.
It's not a landmark decision by the court anyhow. This was decided in 1969, by the SCOTUS... Tinker vs. Des Moines. Students have a first ammendment right to express themselves so long as it does not cause material and substantial disruption, and interfere with other students' rights.
