At this point I assume some kids are trolling the community.

There have been so many meetings, so many community awareness activities, so much hand-wringing from parents and students.

Whoever is pranking should be ashamed of themselves, but I do believe they're purposefully stirring up emotions.

This is exactly the type of prank I would have pulled back when I was in high school, to get attention and stir up trouble. I've evolved since then, thankfully.[/quote]

You would have spraypainted nooses and the n-word? Have you evolved as much as you think? Or are you actively trying to keep black and brown kids out of your white and asian schools? That's the grownup version of racist graffiti.[/quote]

No, we weren't racists. We'd have spraypainted anything to get attention. Actually, we did spraypaint the high school one night. It was "Football Team Rulez" or something like that, to frame the football players. It did get attention including a stern announcement from the principal the next day, and the football players got a reaming from the coach that day at practice, so I guess our eleaborate scheme worked.

If I were 17 years old today? Probably we'd spraypaint something snarky like "Elrich, drop the tax on protest signs" or "Corona doesn't spread during protests, keep shunning social distancing and masks" or "SJW girls are easy" but not nooses and n-words.[/quote]

God help us with this one![/quote]
