[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you prefer the school give you the option of a one-day out-of-school suspension so it's not an "unlawful detainment"? Or are you just looking to get your kid out of any consequences? Don't get me wrong, [b]I appreciate the schools that are giving kids a pass on this[/b], but part of this kind of civic action is learning and weighing the consequences, so I think your child has been given a very valuable lesson here.[/quote] Who should determine the correct political issues for which schools give children a pass?[/quote] Any issue that involves children getting murdered at school should be allowed a "pass". [/quote] So if, for example, an illegal immigrant kills a student, students across the country will be free to protest lax immigration enforcement and sanctuary cities by walking out? What about if kids want to protest gang/drug shootings in places like Chicago or Baltimore, which sometimes happen in school yards, and the societal breakdown that exacerbates them? They should have the freedom to do so?[/quote]
