Kilt Wearing Teen Sent Home From School For Cross-Dressing
TIME to hear from Weber School District spokesman Nate Taggart, who says Craig Jessop has been asked to extend an apology to 14-year-old student Gavin McFarland of Hooper after the school official’s comments Wednesday, specifically that the laddie’s (one ‘d’) kilt constituted cross dressing.
Gavin says he wore the kilt twice in the past two weeks to Rocky Mountain Junior High as a prop for an art project. Jessop told the boy that the outfit could be misconstrued as cross-dressing.
Taggart says the district recognizes the kilt as an expression of the boy’s Scottish heritage and that the kilt was not inappropriate.
And if it looks like a plaid skirt, then it is just a gay and happy coincidence…

Steve you do understand that Hooper, in Weber County is a place in Utah which consequently makes up one of the 50 states of America, which also makes it part of the north American continent and not an “Island” and it most definitely is not an “Island” that is part of the United Kingdom…
Please tell me you got all that.

Yes I concur with the kid that got sent home for wearing a kilt as it is the national dress of Scotland. A bit like the Indians being sent home for wearing a turban and calling it national dress……… yeash right no chance.. Whats good enough for the scottish lad is good enough for the rest. These Islands have gone crazy. Now all you need to do is sack all the MP’s for fiddling (smiles) no chance.
