School administrators in Riverbank, Calif., have banned clothing featuring the name of Mac Dre, a slain rapper who glorified drug use in his music, education officials said. Riverbank Unified School District board members voted unanimously Tuesday to add the Sacramento-based rapper to a list of names and labels banned at the district’s only high school. Dre was gunned down in Kansas City, Mo., in 2004 and popularized the slang term “to thizz,” to describe being high on ecstasy.
