Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS)
I don’t have an insta account and had not viewed the second one. Thank you for posting those, so we can all see and make our own decisions on the two videos at separate FCPS high schools. |
For the poster that said they have never seen examples of Islamophobia in the school just antisemitism, this is an example of it right here. |
Of course because all Muslim students are immigrants and here illegally. Thanks for not trying to hide your bigotry. |
You clearly missed PP's sarcasm. |
So you think the students who posted these videos are victims? That's an .... interesting take on this. |
DP. I think they are victims if they are getting suspended. All that needed to happen was for them to be counseled to removed the videos, which are insensitive. FCPS probably thinks suspending some Muslim kids will get them brownie points with the DOE, but they'll still be a punching bag as long as Trump is in office because Fairfax is blue. They could find themselves getting sued by the families of the suspended kids, if lawyers can compile a set of similar videos by other student organizations at TJ, Langley, or other FCPS schools. |
| Honest question, if the videos are not supposed to depict the Oct 7 kidnapping the Jews, then what is reason they chose to depict this kidnapping? It's really bizarre. |
|
This is insane. I'm as dem as they come, but these videos are totally inappropriate. These kids know better.
Where do we draw the line on what is appropriate? |
It would really help if these organizations would come out and condemn Oct 7 activity. Funny, but I've not seen or heard that from these organizations. |
Why should they have to do that? Should every White student have to come out and publicly condemn slavery? Should every Jewish student have to come out and condemn the Nakba or decades of settler violence in Gaza and the West Bank? You want loyalty oaths because you treat one group as a suspect class. |
Bad judgment isn’t new. Langley was in news 2023 for suspending student for American flag with swastikas and suspending the student that reported the flag. Below is released to public photo that ran in local papers for context.

When you get white kids on video at high schools defending slavery, please post it here. Plenty of Jews have condemned Israel's actions. Haven't seen much on Oct 7 or condemnaiton of Hamas by Muslims. |
NP. Wait - are you asserting that image is somehow Islamophobic ? Please how this image is anything other than antisemitic and possibly anti-American ??
|
These videos are incredibly poor taste. Suspend everyone involved. |
"Silly" is not how I would describe the videos. |
