ACLU LIBERATES KANSAS CITY SCHOLARS FROM DETENTION AND SETTLES 'HANDS UP' PROTEST LAWSUIT WITH KCPS!!!



Another victory in the aftermath of #Ferguson social unrest . . . KCPS scholars get out of detention.

Here's word of social protest becoming part of the curriculum of a still unaccredited school:

KSHB: ACLU, KCPS settle lawsuit over students' protest of Ferguson grand jury decision

Part of the statement:

“We are pleased that Lincoln Academy administrators agreed to withdraw the discipline of the students and remove any mention of it from their permanent records,” said Tony Rothert, legal director of the ACLU of Missouri. 

“Students do not lose their First Amendment rights when they enter a school building.” The students’ suit was settled by mutual agreement, with no admission of liability by KCPS. 

KCPS has maintained that the students were not being disciplined for standing with their hands raised in silent protest, but because – after making their feelings known – they refused to sit down after being told to do so a number of times by an assistant principal."

You decide who won this slap-fight or maybe missed a teaching moment regarding a media circus.

  1. So first amendment rights only apply to the idiot niggers and wanna be's. If I was to go to class and say "hands up and don't commit crimes" would I be afforded those same rights??? Doubtful.

  2. When I was in school if a teacher or any person above them told me to sit down my ass was looking for a wood surface and fast. The teacher ran the class not us the students. Sure we could speak our thoughts more often than not but as well weren't allowed to disrupt the class either. If I had been one of those kids I would not only have been in trouble in school, I would have been in trouble when I got home.

    Trouble with todays kids, they are no longer taught discipline nor are they made to mind school staff.

  3. I'm with the ACLU, and the students. I am inspired that they understood the situation better than most and that they had the courage to speak up.

  6. 5:30, You support students standing up for a thug who commits a robbery then attacks a police officer. Plus the whole hands up was a lie! You are a moron and I can see why you stand with the ACLU.

  7. 5:30, the students did not understand the situation better than most. They just repeated a popular lie. All the physical and almost all of the testimonial evidence proves that "hands up, don't shoot" is baloney. Never mind, their next stop is college where lies are even more popular than in HS, and officially blessed as well.
