Hoover HS makes news

Congrats on making the news, HHS:

In defense of the school, item 8 of the Dress Code in the Policy Manual (Page 31 in the PDF) reads:
 
8. T-shirts or any other type clothing or personal item bearing a reference to alcoholic beverages, tobacco products, drugs, drug-related slogans, and/or any other wording, drawing, pictures, etc., which in any way can be interpreted as being "off-color," suggestive, obscene, or offensive, or relating to, death, the occult, Satanism, etc. are not permitted.
 
A person may be "offended" by the wording on the t-shirt (just like they might be "offended" by a prayer or, say, an invocation), which would qualify the shirt to be banned.

Yet praying by students at graduation is still a big no-no.
