Simple line shaved into hair runs afoul of school policy.

Tennessean.com reports

A Maury County father says school officials branded his 9-year-old twin sons as gang members and suspended them because they had a simple line shaved into their hair.
Paul Edwards told The Daily Herald that it's a hairstyle they've had since kindergarten.

According to Edwards, the two fourth-graders were suspended last Tuesday, and they returned to classes Thursday when the suspension was overturned after he objected.
