Governments intervention is by osmosis. I do not think it is avoidable. Time alone has proven governments always expand into new areas. At best the only thing that may or may not be changeable is the rate of intrusion or control implemented.

I would think there would have to be an existing known policy in place to do the shirt thing with the kid. Of course he will not be imprisoned as that is just a blown up media thing in my mind.

He will not wear the shirt to school though in my opinion. I too have no ideal of why the police got involved in this. There may be more than has been reported involved here.
