This article needs a "Duct Tape Alert"...
Just another Cindi Sheehan type exploitation of a tragic death. Figures that they're from Canada....land of 70%+ belief that America was at fault for the Twin Towers attack.
Idiots!
Militant
Lawyers chasing the school bus
instead of the ambulance.
A boy skipped school to protest at a pro-illegal immigration rally.Did I miss something?He gets punished.
He kills himslef and so the parents sue the school.
Shouldn't the rally-organizers be sued as well? Crappy lawyer. [har]
With a family like this do we really have to ask why this kid had problems? Let's see detention vs. suicide. Hmmmm.
Eighth grader Anthony Soltero shot himself through the head on Thursday, March 30, after the assistant principal at De Anza Middle School told him that he was going to prison for three years because of his involvement as an organizer of the March 28 school walk-outs to protest the anti-immigrant legislation in Washington. The vice principal also forbade Anthony from attending graduation activities and threatened to fine his mother for Anthonys truancy and participation in the student protests.
Here's the school's side:
The school district said four students left school March 28. Superintendent Sharon McGehee has said that interviews with students and faculty members show the boy and the other students never marched with protesters. She said the students went to a store, then returned to the school for lunch.
Two days later, the vice principal told Anthony and three other students that for their truancy they could choose whether to miss a field trip or year-end dance, McGehee said.
