That's probably why it happened. The mother feels she needs to make a statement in the face of what she probably perceives as a Muslim takeover of the area (and in a larger sense, the nation). She probably also believes that "secret Muslim" nonsense about President Obama too. You have to keep in mind that when an area is said to be more "liberal", that doesn't mean every person in it is more liberal. It just means that there's a higher percentage of liberals there. There are still knuckle-dragging troglodytes, but they're just less dominant. It may develop a siege mentality.
In a more conservative town, it would be a town councillor saying these things, not some dipshit speaking through her daughter's T-shirt. This girl
knew the school wouldn't like it too; she was just upset because the punishment for her T-shirt trolling was harsher than she expected.
All the more reason for people to home school their kids and keep their idiocy to themselves.
Why? It's not as if this little bitch is going to convert anyone with this behaviour, and at least she's getting
some exposure to other points of view at public school, which is more than she would get when being homeschooled.
