Again if its not "attack words" or advocating illegal action, the school should be wary. If its political is already limited by Tinker. Arguably in both cases it could be considered political.
Another way to look at it is this:
If you allow Blue Pride Shirts, you have to allow Green Pride shirts.
You do not have to allow Blue Sucks or Green is superior shirts.
Schools have already lost on that in the courts.
If you ban symbol X as intimidating, you have to honor it when
someone else claims symbol Y is intimidating. That is happening
more and more.
