Anti-gay stickers at California high school raise first amendment questions

At Shadow Hills High School in Indio, CA, some students have shown up with anti-gay stickers on their ID badges.

The images feature rainbows with a red circle around them and a line striking through them, and are highly offensive to many students and staff members at the school. The question is, are they constitutionally legal?

Eugene Volokh is a professor at UCLA's school of law and he joins the show to talk about whether this falls under free speech.
