Can schools punish students for what they say outside of school? I guess we will finally find out.

I don’t think they can. Be nice if they stated employers can’t either.

She may be a trash mouth but screw their political correctness. She'll probably grow up to be a Marine 0311.

Hmmm. I could've sworn there was a book in which children were "junior spies" for turning in their parents for "thoughtcrime." Something about the 80s.

The very thing which has liberated our speech, has become our oppressor.

Freedom of speech?

 

[diggs223]

seeing what has come out of this court so far, freedoms are gone, pc police rule, I will be surprised to see freedom prevail.

 

[Jmac00]

she already won in a lower court, why would SCOTUS even bother hearing it? I thought SCOTUS only heard cases that were disputed by the lower courts???

I can’t imagine how you can be punished by the school for doing something outside of the school grounds. Every kid would be punished if heard why they said about teachers or coaches.

Freedom of speech?

Freedom of speech shall never be violated.
The problem is that today everything you say or record is forever to be preserved for your future potential employers to see and read even before you get a chance to get an interview or explain yourself.
I think people should relax a little and also respect the freedom of speech as a sacred thing more important than anything anyone has to say.
Bit the reality is political correctness has superceded common sense.
...and I cam also understand why certain private sector conpanies screen people before recruiting or hiring with so many loons, thugs and liars out there.

Agreed. Who hasn’t told someone to fuck off or at least thought it.

I call for a zero tolerance policy on all ethnic / racial slurs. You want equality Id revoke admission to every black student who drops the N bomb or uses the term cracka in social media posts. Either something is offensive or its not. Speech is protected or its not. It reminds me of an old news article. I cant stand hypocrisy.

This has to be a joke or why this case was selected. Listen to where they live. Nude photos posted in Licking County and the girl attends licking valley high school. Oh come on now. This just can’t be real. Licking valley!!
While I don’t think she should have to register as a sex offender this technically meets the definition of child porn. Do I agree with it being a criminal offense of it was sent to other minors no because it’s not illegal for her to be naked and have sex with another 15 year old. In addition the sex offender registry is to warn the public about threats in their neighborhood m. Does this girl lose a threat by taking nude photos of herself no certainly not.
Now this is a different situation entirely from the same article. Do I think the book should be thrown at this kid no but it’s worse than the girl sending nude photos of herself to whom she wishes and should hold a punishment.
A 17-year-old in Wisconsin was charged in May with child pornography for allegedly posting naked pictures of his ex-girlfriend on the Internet. The girl had sent him the pictures. He told the La Crosse County Sheriff's Department he was just "venting" after she broke up with him.
