Here is a story about a high school student who wrote a poem about Sandy Hook and was suspended and now is facing expulsion.
There are two things about this story that bother me and neither one has to do with her right to free speech.
The first thing is that she never published this poem or turned it in to anyone. Supposedly, some teacher "found it" (wtf?) and read it and turned it over to the administrators.
The second thing is that this girl is supposedly 17 years-old. But she looks like she could be a grandmother. Take a look and see what you think?
ETA: Oh no! Spud? Apparently this story originated with The Daily Mail. I never realized that when I first posted this thread. I just read the story again in detail and saw that. What a shocker, huh?
Oh man! Seems to me like this is a million dollar lawsuit. If I was the student, I'd find several grounds to sue these stupid fucking administrators for going through my private property and reading my stuff. I can understand them going through students' private property searching for drugs or weapons. But searching for written material? That seems like it crosses the line to me. Fucking Bozos!
