School In Manitoba Thinks 'Urban Planet' Clothing Is Gang Affiliated Ware - Suspends Student


And Nike is Klan affiliated. Story out of Winnipeg, Manitoba:

A Winnipeg student has been reprimanded for wearing a hat school officials deemed "gang clothing," even though it's part of a trendy teen clothing line sold across the country.

"I was flabbergasted … that's not our thing. I'm not a gang member, I don't have family that are gang members, my kid is not a gang member. We don't associate with gang members … I don't live that lifestyle," the teen's mother, Victoria Walterson, told Go Public.

Walterson said she took her 17-year-old son Cadan to the local mall and his favourite store, Urban Planet.

Walterson bought her son a baseball hat with a black and white bandana pattern, which he loved and wore everywhere, she said.

"He gets to school with it on and he is pulled into the office and he is told what he is wearing is gang paraphernalia and that it is a direct violation of Winnipeg School Division's attire policy and he is suspended," Walterson said. Cont. (Video)
