“I asked them what happened and they said that the kids were just so upset by this that they had to make them happy”
The essence of liberal utilitarianism: do what makes the most people on your side happy, regardless of what is ethical or even legal.
Was it a false statement? Did she get punished because the truth hurt their widdle feewlings?
This BS has to STOP. Freedom of Speech is the 1st AMENDMENT! Skanky thin skinned creeps are running the country through the schools. Soon you won’t be able to choose Vanilla ice cream over chocolate without being discriminated against and called a bigot!
I guess death threats and threats of violence are ok but tweeting the truth not so much.
“Some of the kids from the soccer team who actually threatened me with their Tweets had a state tournament soccer game the day I showed their threats to the school and they still played. They had another game a few days later and they played in that too. I was wondering if they would get to play and I checked and they did”
She made a questionable statement, and what she received were public threats of bodily harm.
And her school did nothing to discipline its own students who threatened a fellow student.
This puts the lie to every bit of nonsense about "zero tolerance" policies on violence, and the "stop the bullying" rhetoric.
“It was false, but that’s not the point.” She was replying to a false tweet from her teacher. There is a sizable illegal alien population in Revere. It is not 90% but it is higher than 25%.
Now the next question is, how does one get in either category? Easy. The protected ones agree to the position that the powers that are push and advocate. The ones that it is open season on disagree or oppose what the powers that are push or advocate.
Wonder what would have happened if the same threats had been made toward the teachers or administrators?
Borg bullies are protected by hive mentality.
Wonder what would have happened if the same threats had been made toward the teachers or administrators?
They need a Hugh (and series) attitude adjustment.
I think we had that same kind of arrangement a few centuries ago, and it didn't really work out for them.
Ugh. I wish she and her family would stop apologizing for her tweet. They don’t sound too bright.
The teacher asked about low voter turnout. Let’s say a sizable percentage of the residents are illegal; they can’t vote by law. That’s the answer to the teacher’s question. Turns out she’s right, isn’t she?!?
Anyway, sounds like more liberals eating their own. Unless they just newly minted another conservative. We’ll see. It’s really hard to care about what happens to these people.
When did the powers that be decide that average citizens must speak like a politician? Even better when was it decided that children speak like politicians?
The cheerleader is a Trump supporter according to her twitter profile.
Yes, I am sorry to see that political incorrectness receives a greater punishment than threats of physical violence. I am also sorry to see her peers would jump on such a bandwagon.
Years ago when I first heard of PC I remember joking about it. Now it is practically a crime to go against it. I fear unless there is a tremendous backlash this idea of insensitivity or offensiveness will grow equally out of control and freedom of speech will be a thing of the past.
She should get the aclu to sue on her behalf.
