Reuben was lacking!
 
Reuben Lack was the Student Council president at Alpharetta High School in Georgia. Reuben filed a lawsuit against the school, because administrators kicked him off the council. He says it was because he advocated having two prom queens or two prom kings to accommodate queer students.
 
The judge rightly denied his request for an injunction and ruled that the school had a right to remove him from office. You see, Reuben seemed to be lacking. Administrators presented evidence that Reuben changed meeting times contrary to their instructions, that he arbitrarily ousted a student council member, that he failed to show up for student council events while insisting that other council members do so, and that he failed to exhibit the proper respect due to faculty members. Even one of his friends said he had trouble relating to the other students.
 
Just another ho-hum case of "If I can't do things the way I want to it must be because you're discriminating against me." Waaaaah! Waaaah! Waaaah!
