Reposting this (also posted in Main). THIS sort of thing, as with many many other reasons, is why I'm a "card-carrying member of the ACLU," on both a state and national level! (I even don ACLU gear-got a ACLU logo beanie!) The ACLU of Oregon partnered with a law prof at U of Williamette to come to this student's aid and uncovered "substantial evidence of discrimination and other violations of state and federal law." Now the offending resources officer has been fired AND the North Bend School system must remain under the supervision of the state education dept in addition to working with the ACLU to make changes in developing training and policies to address/prevent harassment.

I support the ACLU even before a political candidate.
