just wow...

[Boonie]

So much for the 1st Amendment...

Freedom of speech only applies when you what someone else WANTS you to say...

[frankiep]

So they won’t say what they said exactly, only that it is bad enough to suspend them. Wonderful.

It’s beginning already.

I just wonder what the tipping point is going to be, and when the hell it is finally going to happen.

[Mr. Mojo]

Just the beginning. Soon merely criticizing his policies will earn one a suspension. ...or far worse. Heil Hussein!

[Rumplemeyer]

where did this happen?

[ConservativeMind]

Unless they used the “N” word, I don’t know how this was truly offensive or worth a suspension.

Liberalism is mentally deranged. Negative comments against our sitting president, Bush, would not be punished.

[gimme1ibertee]

Homeschooling BUMP!

[San Jacinto]

Freedom of Speech, it was nice knowin’ ya.

...two students who allegedly used insensitive language during a social studies class discussion about the presidential election.

It doesn't say what the "insensitive" language was. If it truly were bad, they would have told us. The students probably said something true, like that Obama wouldn't have won if he were white.

[OneWingedShark]

Hmmm, no quotations of the ‘insensitive’ language? Maybe it was just something like “What a moron, the only way the government can afford to give healthcare to everybody is to give them the power to tell you when to die.”

[Fawn]

But teachers can intimidate 5th graders and insult their fathers.....

Behold, the evil fruits of ThoughtCrime! To Room 101 with them for endless tape video recordings of the debates....

[RexBeach]

What if Mr. McCain had been elected, and some students said bad things about him. Would they have been suspended, too?

[VOA]

Officials at Papillion–La Vista South High School have suspended two
students who allegedly used insensitive language during a social
studies class discussion about the presidential election.

I got to hand it to Obama.
He's even got The Fairness Doctrine into the classroom before he's
been inaugurated.
That's REAL POWER.

If you aren't worshipping at The Church of The ObamaMessiah...
BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID

[Deb]

This is gonna be such a great four years! The change. The unity. The happiness and tolerance we’ve all been waiting for. Of course, it might get a little rough for “Whitey”!!!

[silverleaf]

“What we do in such situations as this is try to address the behavior and change it ...”

horse mumble mumble ship

They expelled 2 kids for saying the wrong thing-
that sure “addresses the behavior” - it scares the bejeezus out of the rest of the students from speaking up

[Poser]

If what they said was both religiously and racially offensive, I can guess what they said. In that case, suspension was in order.

HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS ARE NOT FREE TO SAY ANYTHING IN CLASS!

This is not a free speech issue.

[WhyisaTexasgirlinPA]

$100 bucks says they used the “M” word.....

[TruthConquers]

Public Schools are socialist hell holes. Period.

Any Freeper that does not know that by now is in denial.

Freedom takes sacrifice. Is it going to be you doing the sacrifice or your children being sacrificed to socialism? You do have a choice.

[Revolting cat!]

That’s niggardly! Ooops, can’t say that.
