School doesn't have free speech rights to say this kid can play whatever sport they want? Hmm....

Republican state legislatures are trying to ban companies from not doing business with other companies over their public stances (ie: pulling advertising from Twitter because of the obvious). They only care about free hate speech.

The right wing concept of "free speech" is "I can say whatever I want and you can't say anything about it."
