National School Walkout

My (mostly black) high school had a walk-out when, during an anti-raycissm indoctrination assembly (they brought 3 minorities to whine about all the racial discrimination they experienced, 1 black guy and 2 mystery meats, one of which was a lady that looked 100% white and who was trying to play Shaun King before Shaun King became Shaun King) a black kid complained that one of the teachers called him the diminutive equivalent of the n word. It was quite amusing because the school staff pushed liberal poz hard and they suddenly found themselves playing the role of the bad guys being protested by the monsters they created."As for my people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O my people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths." Isaiah 3:12
There is no such thing as innocence, only degrees of guilt.

This doesn't appear to be a hypothetical. A student was threatened with arrest and escorted off school property during the walkout for holding a sign reading, "Guns don't kill people, people kill people."

I agree. Our district believes that it's a teachable moment but that if it's important enough for you, it's important enough for at least two or three detentions.
When I did have a couple of dual-enrollment students from an offsite high school in one of my classes, I was instructed to treat them like any of my other students. If they're on campus, in my class, then they're "officially" adults, and not even their parents can ask me for any details on their attendance.
I'm not sure what detentions are, but I'm pretty sure I'll never have to give them.
