An assistant principal at a Washington state high school has the backing of his district after rapping about shooting up a school.
Logic Amen, who has served as the assistant to the principal at Tacoma’s Lincoln High School since 2011 and is also an entertainer, wrote a rap called “Cancel Christmas” with lyrics that discuss taking a loaded gun to school, according to the Tacoma News Tribune Wednesday.
Tacoma School District says assistant principal's work is freedom of expression — with lyrics like “Give me a reason just to load up a rifle. … Leave the halls bloody like a high noon tycoon." Listen and decide for yourself. https://t.co/aAkaW8cKFx

Tacoma School district spokesperson Dan Voelpel said that Amen’s actions did not violate any district policy and falls into the category of “artistic expression.” – READ MORE
