Judge rules against anti-war student
By MICHELLE SAXTON

Nov. 1, 2001 | CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) -- A judge ruled Thursday that a
15-year-old sophomore cannot form an anarchy club or wear T-shirts
opposing the U.S. bombing of Afghanistan because it would disrupt school.

Katie Sierra was suspended from Sissonville High School for three days for
promoting the club. She was also told she could not wear T-shirts with
messages such as: "When I saw the dead and dying Afghani children on TV, I
felt a newly recovered sense of national security. God Bless America."

In a complaint filed with her mother, Sierra argued her right to free
speech was being denied.

Circuit Court Judge James Stucky agreed that free speech is "sacred" but
he found that such rights are "tempered by the limitations that they ...
not disrupt the educational process."

Sierra said she'll pursue the dispute.

"I don't want war. I'm not for Afghanistan," Sierra said. "I think that
what we're doing to them is just as bad as what they did to us, and I
think it needs to be stopped."

James Withrow, lawyer for the Kanawha County Board of Education, argued
that an anarchy club was inappropriate because students "do not feel that
their school is a safe place anymore."

"Anarchy is the antithesis of what we believe should be in schools,"
Withrow said.

Sierra's attorney, Roger Forman, said she is "being punished for
expressing her opinion."
