American Student Victimised Because of Public Display of Taste and Decency

Today my attention has been drawn to a story of incredible importance. An American school, obviously jealous of how much more manly and noble their students look when dressed in medieval armour, have banned a student from appearing kitted-out in mail in the school's year book.

Officially, the reason for this is something to do with a "zero tolerance policy" for weapons, but this is obviously a case of thinly disguised racism. Look at the gentlemen in question:


True, he may have the kind of peculiar features one could expect to belong to a serial killer and/or rapist, but once he has donned his armour his figure is obviously transformed into one of distinguished gentility. It would appear that the authorities at "Portsmouth High School" realised that, if we medievalists were to throw aside our modern garb and to take up the noble dress of a superior era, we would outshine our contemporaries dressed in dull modern fashions and thus the tissues of lies they tell about the Middle Ages would be unraveled and thus destroyed.

Patrick Agin, we salute you and your family for standing up to such harsh oppression by taking those involved thorough the King's court - and we salute all members of the Society for Creative Anachronism for preaching such a noble way of life in a land which is the bastard-child of the diabolical modern age.
