A male student at a Florida high school was removed from class when the response to his wearing high heels sparked "safety" concerns from the principal.

Fox Tampa Bay reports on the incident involving an unidentified student at Riverview High School. A friend said the young man, who wears the heels to feel more confident, felt "shame" for being called out of class.

It still amazes me how crappy humans can be to each other.  Though unfortunately I can understand the principal is taking the easy way out in dealing with it verses educating the majority he really can't have mob rule in the classroom. 

Also with as slanted as the news is towards selling more advertising time.  Is there more to it then we are aware of??
