9 Students Suspended For YouTube Videos (made fun of teachers and students)

Obviously there are school districts around the country that already have way too much taxpayer money if they have time to engage in the kind of anti-American activities described in the news report.

Important to note: the kids videos were not made in the school, on school time or with school equipment. If threats were made, it would be a police matter -- apparently that was not the case, so the administrators are behaving like petty tyrants. If what was in the videos was slanderous, there are civil courts to utilize.

What was in the videos may have been in poor taste, rude, or perhaps even cuttingly humorous. But in the old United States where the Bill of Rights still had meaning and was respected, the right to express oneself through speech and/or actions was a critical ingredient of freedom.

School administrators like those in this incident really have completely forgotten that their job is to facilitate education, not intrude themselves in other people's words or behavior, especially off campus.

Yet another example of life in Bush's America.
