Gone too far! ‘Star Wars’ t-shirt banned from school

A seventh-grader was reportedly banned from wearing his “Star Wars — The Force Awakens” t-shirt to school, because, after all, it depicted make-believe storm troopers shooting make-believe weapons.

Colton Southern is by all standards a model kid. He’s active in his church, does volunteer work at a park near his Rosenberg home and he’s a boy scout for crying out loud.

“It’s political correctness run amok,” Colton’s father, Joe Southern, told the station “You’re talking about a Star Wars t-shirt, a week before the biggest movie of the year comes out. It has nothing to do with guns or making a stand. It’s just a Star Wars shirt.”

Watch the clip, via News 13.

Southern wasn’t the only person who thought the school went too far, and took to social media to express their dismay.
