[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]What that child wrote was hateful, but was it a hate crime? I don’t think so.

People have commented that it’s a miss use of the school Chromebook well, let me tell you kids do a lot worse than that. But the police isn’t and shouldn’t be called. That should be dealt with at the school level.

MCPS and Earl seem to be dealing with a drug and bullying and fighting problem. Just browse through the most recent topics on this forum. The police is not called. [/quote]

No, it was not a hate crime.  It was essentially a ‘thought crime’ like someone else posted above.

It’s like we live in China or something.

And misuse of Chromebooks?  I guess.  But I know plenty of kids at Wood are looking at porn on their school-issued Chromebooks and there doesn’t seem to be much the school can do about that.  [/quote]

Umm, looking at porn isn't hate speech towards others in your school.  [/quote]
We don’t define misogynistic speech or even violence specifically directed at women as a hate crime, but there’s plenty of violence and degradation of women in pornography, and it affects female students in general to a far greater extent than a document that was only shared between 3 students.[/quote]
