Two NJ high school students suspended for going to gun range after school

[DoD1776]

This is bullshit.
The students could face a possible one-year suspension, according to Schmutter.
Lacey Township School District in central New Jersey suspended two high school students after Snapchat pictures showed them at a gun range outside of school hours.
Schmutter (Lawyer) indicated in a letter to Lacey Township School District that suspending the two students for posting photos off school grounds and unrelated to school activities was a “very serious violation” of the their rights, according to Patch.com.

This crap needs to stop. Lawyer up and sue the snot out of the school district.

 

[Podmonkey]

Motherfuckers! I'm not even gonna say what I want done to these commie administration fucks!

 

[Deplorable Me]

Screw the morality police.

On the flip side my son and I have made a habit of not showing our faces on the Internet any more than necessary. Father and son, grey men.

It started with the 2nd Amendment and now it’s the 1st. Controlling what you can and cannot post. Smh.

 

[Carlos Hathcock]

As much as I'm against the whole "I'm gonna sue you" rhetoric, this is one case where they should lawyer the fuck up and nail em for every penny possible. I can't even see how there is any way they could lose. THIS IS TOTAL HORSESHIT.

 

[wizrd]

It's time to load some of these people on the trains and take them to the "SHOWERS" !

 

[Kwalsh]

i would be begging them to suspend my daughter!!!!

the lawyers would be lined up all the way to the bank!!!

 

[GOPerfect]

Hopefully, these students have good parents.

Who in the fuck do these people think they are to attempt the doings of others people's children?

Fine, you made up some stupid policy, what gives you the right to enforce it? How in the fuck do you think that you have more power than the founding fathers and the Constitution?

Go ahead; fuck right off! I hope and pray that bad things come your way!

 

[GOPerfect]

I have read a few more articles that say the school has amended the policy.

Better late than never!?

 

[DoD1776]

I would sue the fuck out of them and to the point where they’d be cutting after school activities haha.

I’d be making tweets tagging the school in it LOL.

 

[Depick]

Talk about over reaching these people are nuts

The biggest issue with a possible law suit is, at the beginning of the school year, the school rules are sent home, most of the time, the parent one/or the student signs for them saying they understand and agree to the rules. If that is the case at this school, they may not have good grounds to sue.

Ehh public school ( government school) cannot legally restrict a constitutionally protected activity not conducted on their grounds. Imagine if they say going to church was a prohibited activity.

Did not say they would be legal to do it; just said, if it is like my son's school. we had to sign saying we agreed to the rules of the school. I said it may make it more difficult to sue. That is all.

"Their own policy enforces zero-tolerance policy for any students who have weapons in their possession, on or off school grounds,"

So I suppose posting a picture of them driving a nail with a hammer would result in the same repercussions?

So, what happens if you redact the document before signing and sending back.

If I had kids in school I think I might have more than a few objections.

What is their recourse if you refuse to sign an unredacted version ?

Or eating dinner at a steak house ?

 

[Cooolone]

What's interesting is I wonder how many students have been suspended for attending a gangster rap concert? Just curious?...

How about suspension because they looked up "anarchist cookbook"...?

Or any of a million other publications...

Or for joining a "white lives matter" group?

Or for signing up to join the Armed Forces?

Fuck these idiots! And damned right, it will continue time until they're put on notice!

 

[wizrd]

....but will it go on their 'permanent record' ? -- "You CANNOT run for President, Mr. X - we have a picture of you at a gun range when you were 17 years old." --- Bullshit cubed to the nth power! -

That’s the small battles that will win wars. Push us underground like the Jews.

If I was the parent, I'd march into the fucking school and tell them to do their fucking job and educate my kids -- assuming I even trusted public schools to do anything outside just brainwashing kids.

They don't have legal grounds to deny these kids an education, so I'd just drop them off each morning. If they want to say no, then I'd pick a lawyer who wants to get rich off the easiest case ever, and put him on the job of suing the shit out of them.
