Mukwonago and Berlin High School administrators not Embarrassed over Possibly Reinstating Stereotypical Racist Mascot Names.

Constitutional free speech rights have granted conservative Waukesha County the right to use derogatory racist names for school mascots.
GreenbayPressGazette: Last October, the DPI ruled that the mascot perpetuates stereotypes of American Indians and is discriminatory. The district was given a year to drop the Indians mascot.

A Waukesha County judge said the state's effort to strip Mukwonago High School of its Indians nickname was unconstitutional. Judge Donald Hassin Jr. ruled last week in favor of residents who challenged the 2010 state law that allowed complaints about Native American nicknames and mascots.

In one of the most confusing disconnected from reality rulings…
The judge agreed that the law — as applied in the case against Mukwonago schools — was unconstitutional because the decision maker — a Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction employee — had an impermissibly high risk of bias.

Huh? What bias? Why would a WDP employee be a high risk impermissibly biased person? So derogatory racist names are coming back...
Northwestern: Berlin School officials have put the state-ordered replacement the district’s Indian nickname and logo on hold after a judge overturned a similar order in southeast Wisconsin last week.  
This should make Rep. Steve Nass a happy racist.
