Student Tossed for "Hempstead" T-shirt
ATLANTA The town of Hempstead, New York, has a message for school officials in Gwinnett (gwih-NET') County, Georgia: Look at a map.
Named for Button Gwinnett, signer of the Declaration of Independence.
That's after a student at a suburban Atlanta high school was thrown out of class for wearing a shirt that said Hempstead on it. Hempstead is the name of his hometown. But school officials apparently thought it was a reference to marijuana.
"But we thunk it was some sorta' pioneer mari-hoochie farm!"
His family says Terrell Jones was pulled out of class at Grayson High School Monday -- and wasn't allowed to return until he persuaded school officials to look up the town on the Internet.
Good thing he's not from Intercourse, Pottsville, or Blue Ball, all in Pennsylvania; or Knob Lick, Kentucky.
A spokeswoman for the Long Island town says Hempstead is the nation's largest township, with 759-thousand residents, 22 villages and more than 142 square miles. Jones' family wants an apology.
This is less serious, of course, but it reminds me of that British vigilante mob who burned a PEDIATRICIAN's house because they thought it was the same as PEDOPHILE.
