Dimebag Expulsion
12/12/05
.
(Pivotal Rage) The story of Timothy getting in trouble at Lake Central High School for simply wearing a R.I.P. Dimebag Darrell memorial T-shirt initially appeared in his local newspaper, then North West Indiana Times. The story went on to say that Janet Emerick (Lake Central High School Superintendent) read Any apparel or item that alludes to drugs, alcohol, sex, the occult, gangs, profanity or which are offensive to ethnic or racial groups is prohibited. Basically making it clear that she and the school finds the memorial T-shirt to promote heroin use due to the Dimebag reference. However once this story reached the rest of the music community, I and surely many others who read the story instantly said, This is a load of bullshit! This is an important issue that needs to be addressed in our country and in our musical community, so I decided to give Tim a call... My study hall teacher, Ms. Pajkos told me that I was a fool for going to the paper. Ever since that article came out, they threw me out of regular school and put me in night school. Because the teachers were ridiculing me, so now I have night school. Now Im separated from the rest of the kids. It sucks, I miss my friends.
