Do you think these brats were rightfully suspended?


4 White Students in California are SUING their School District after they were Suspended for LIKING and COMMENTING a racist instagram picture of one of their peers and said it violates their students' free speech rights!!

They accused the Albany Unified School District for unjustly suspending them because the offensive posts they made were on a PRIVATE ACCOUNT that had no connection with any school activity or school account.

The posts were found on another suspended student's account that included NOOSES drawn around the necks of a black student AND their school coach.

Alan Beck, their attorney said "This to me is no different than having a private drawing book and making some offensive drawings at home and sharing them with a couple of friends. Does the school have the right to ruin my life over something i was doing at my house"

Legal experts said the Trump administration will be dragged into this as their lawsuit will present federal courts with another opportunity to decide how schools and regulate student free speech

It raises the question on whether "likes" on social media are treated as original osts as likes can be ambiguous which could be saying "This is funny, i agree with it. Or i don't agree with it but i want to stand up for your right to say it" said Eugene Volkh who teaches free speech.

That specific picture they were bumped out of school for was because it also included a picture of a black student at their school next to an Ape and jokes about their weight and looks.

Albany is an affluent community next to Berkeley which prides itself in liberalism and Political Correctness

Valerie Williams, the superintendent said they pride themselves in being an inclusive and respectful environment as they will take appropriate action

The original student who posted that image to his friends is also facing EXPULSION as his name is not being released.

Students said that account was targeting "only black people" as the suspended students were outed by peers and were "publicly shamed" where they were cursed and jeered at.

A protest quickly formed after the incident was revealed back in late march where students and the community were outraged over the posts

The 4 want unspecified damages and a court order to remove their suspensions as one of them said it was their RIGHT to say whatever he wanted out of school time..

Do you think these 4 brats were rightfully suspended?
