… or if it was the slimeball media suppressed it.

[joshua c]

how is illegal alien racist?

sounds like the school is racist

[shelterguy]

“””how is illegal alien racist?

sounds like the school is racist”””””

Especially since that is the official term.

The individuals responsible should be required to pay the settlement, not the Board of Education.

[bigbob]

Insurance company will pay.

[Carriage Hill]

Call them what they are:

CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIEN INVADERS !

[Frank Drebin]

They should be forced to pay more than that. All of their combined salaries plus 200% for emotional damage should suffice. Then they should have to name a building or program after the kid. They should also all be required to read in unison their apology over the school intercom, while simultaneously broadcasting to every other school in the state, daily for the rest of his school career.

Criminalien works fine.

[Fireone]

Yes, and I think the kid settled too cheap.
I would have demanded a public apology, my attorney’s fees paid, reinstatement and record expunged, $50,000. and a limo ride to school for my remaining days/years at that school.
A daily reminder of how racist and stupid these administrators are.

[Wallace T.]

Did the parents pay an attorney for the lawsuit or did a conservative pro bono law firm file the case? If the former, you have to wonder if the $20K would be sufficient to pay the lawyers.

North Carolina Piedmont area. Stories should be specific about locations as there’s a few Davidson Counties. Nashville is in one of them.

[Verginius Rufus]

Davidson County, North Carolina, voted heavily for Trump. Unlike Davidson County, Tennessee (Nashville).

[Secret Agent Man]

Its a 100% legally and technically accurate statement.

We are now worried about illegal aliens “hurt feelings” by accurately describing them? I sure am not.

[libertylover]

Good! Except $20K should be taken from every school board member who voted for such an awful thing.

[odawg]

Maybe one day American voters will realize that school board members are elected and that they can be unelected.

The right people on the school board can change laws and fire the superintendent who likes to be stupid.

The stupid leftist school administrators couldn’t care less. They are not paying out the $20,000

[BOBWADE]

I would have used the term Criminal Invader
