Student

The Resume

    (circa 1997- )
    Born in United States
    Resided in Aurora, Colorado
    Attended Aurora Frontier K-8 School in Aurora, Colorado
    Was suspended from school after wearing a shirt that criticized Barack Obama (September 18, 2008)

Why he might be annoying:

    He wore a homemade T- shirt to school with the words 'Obama is a terrorist’s best friend' written on it.
    The teacher who confronted him about his shirt did not have Dalton as a student.
    Some students' reactions to Dalton's shirt included disruptive arguments and accusations of racism.
    He loudly argued and yelled at some students who opposed his shirt.
    He chose suspension from school over the options to wear his shirt inside out or change it.
    His father considered suing the school district over First Amendment rights to free speech.
    He admitted not knowing enough about either Obama or John McCain to have an opinion about which should be President of the United States.

Why he might not be annoying:

    His father was the main influence for the shirt's creation and message after the school requested that students wear patriotic colors.
    About his father's influence in the situation, Dalton stated 'I just follow my dad'.
    Some students were indifferent or supportive of his shirt's message.
    Other students, including Dalton's sister, wore political shirts to the school with less questionable messages.
    Regarding suspension, school authorities considered Dalton's behavior as well as his shirt's message.
    He did not regret wearing the shirt, and he planned to continue wearing it in defense of free speech.
    Some questioned whether a shirt with a strong message against John McCain would have brought as much criticism to Dalton.
