Bong Hits Punk Gets $45,000

Remember the snot-nosed punk with the "Bong Hits 4 Jesus" sign? The case has been settled at last:
In a free speech case that reached the nation's highest court, the Juneau-Douglas School District and former student Joseph Frederick have reached a settlement.
Frederick was suspended during a 2002 Olympic torch relay for holding up a banner that read "Bong Hits 4 Jesus" while standing across from the high school.
Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in favor of the school's position that Frederick celebrated the illegal use of drugs. The district will pay Frederick $45,000. In exchange Frederick will drop remaining claims not heard by the U.S. Supreme Court.
After nearly seven years of wasting everyone's time, he's ruled to be wrong and still gets a payoff. If it's this bad now, imagine the judicial lunacy in store for us after four years of judges appointed by the Moonbat Messiah.
On a tip from Wiggins.
