Godwin’s law alert

From Yahoo!:
A teenager is suing her school district for barring her from the prom last spring because she was wearing a dress styled as a large Confederate battle flag.

It’s a pity that the Hong Kong boutique Izzue (no link; I don’t link to morons who have Flash-only sites unless I’m making fun of them) stopped selling their Nazi-themed clothes. If they hadn’t, just think of how many Ohio schoolchildren of German descent could have worn Izzue’s clothes with the argument that the aforementioned Kentucky teen made:

“Everyone has their own opinion. But that’s not mine,” she told reporters outside the courthouse. “I’m proud of where I came from and my background.”
