An Alberta high school student has been told he can't wear a kilt to convocation. "I would like to wear my kilt to the grad ceremonies," said 19-year-old Hamish Jacobs, who is of Scottish descent.

Though school officials refused to comment on why the no-kilt dress code was created, a community resident said a previous graduate wore nothing under his kilt and exposed himself during the ceremony.

News flash, you can do this with grad gowns too you fools why not ban those too?

So, no kilts, but kirpans and burquas are still OK, right ?

And for that matter, why haven't skirts been banned yet ?

What really worries me is that if the school tried to ban anything
such as a kirpan or burqua, then there is bloody hell to pay.
Everyone is now terrified of doing anything like that.

But since there is no problem discriminating against a white man
who wants to show a little Scottish heritage, and we will all just sit and take it.

Even the HRC wouldnt do anything.

Wearing a Kilt in Canada is banned????

Is this a go at Political Correctness by the school?

If the High School was in Nova Scotia would it be
banned there?
