(MyFoxBoston.com) -- A local high school cheerleading captain was disciplined after she sent out a tweet about illegal immigrants. She says it was a political statement, not a racial one! FOX25 spoke with the teen who says she was taking a page from Donald Trump. Caley Godino is a senior at Revere High School and she says part of their homework is to watch these presidential debates and her tweet was simply about a hot button issue in the headlines. "When only 10 percent of Revere votes for mayor cause the other 90 percent isn't legal," Godino said in the tweet. She says it was a response to a tweet from her teacher about the low voter turnout for November's mayoral race. Caley says she meant her tweet as a political comment not a racial comment.
But after other students complained, the school stepped in. Revere Superintendent Dianne Kelly says the district believes in freedom of speech, but cannot support what she calls insensitive language. "If you're going to stand up and say something that other people will find offensive- than you need to be prepare to deal with the ramifications of that," Kelly said. Caley's mother says her daughter who is the high school's head cheerleader is now banned from cheering for the rest of the season and doesn't think the punishment fits the crime.

Somebody needs to educate this liberal ‘tard on the Constitution and Bill of Rights. Nowhere in either document does it guarantee anybody the right to not be offended. I’m offended that she’s offended.
This happens to American kids under the First Amendment and Clockmed is looking to cash out with $15,000,000?
Oh hell no!
Everything that comes before the word “but” is a lie.
Isn’t the main mission of our Goverment to protect the fragile self-esteem of our Islamic colonists? Clockmed will probably win the 15 million and also get punative damages...
If Clockmed can sue for $15 million and a written apology, then she should, too. In fact, she should run for school board.
http://www.greatschools.org/massachusetts/revere/1416-Revere-High-School/details/#Students - Her high school has a poor rating and the front page states “Honestly, this school is horrible.” 71% are on free or reduced lunches. In 2012, Hispanics made up 41% so it’s your guess how many are illegals.
Here’s the superintendent and a youtube. No wedding ring and getting a distinctive liberal gay vibe:
