no you are wrong flstf freedom of speach is not unlimited. There are many things you cannot say legally. For instance I can not legally lie about someone else. I cannot say things that would insite panic or violence (yelling fire in a crowded theator, insiting others to attack someone, ect). You cannot say you want to kill or someone should kill the president.
This dress falls under the saying things that could insight panic or violence. It could have easily escelated things at the prom to a dangerous levels putting everyone at risk. The administration was 100% correct in not letting her wear it. Of course the freedom of speech would only matter if this were a publicly funded event but it wasn't it was privatly funded and as such the school can make up whatever rules they want. For instance is it against free speech that they force people to go to prom in formal attire? What if i wanted to go in a speedo. That should be allowed right? Yet the dance requires formal attire.
