    White boy assaulted black girl. Black girl gets suspended.

    I don’t think schools should be teaching kids to “turn the other cheek” when getting pummeled by a bully.

        You say that like it’s a law of nature and not a choice made by school administrators.

          I don’t think it’s a law of nature. But within a school it’s as close as it gets. The rule is literally called “zero tolerance”.

            Yeah and it is crap. The rule needs fuckin banned from school administrators being allowed to use it, it only exists to protect the school from liability at the expense of the safety of children, it is beyond stupid.

      Did you actually read what I wrote? And the boy is suspended too.

      Black girl threw the first punch, she escalated right up to it.

      They’re both idiots.

      Never mind the black girl is harassing multiple people over “he said she said” bullshit with aggressive claims of racism to kick the whole thing off.

        What is the reasonable reaction if someone is calling black people ‘slaves’, according to you?

          What’s a reasonable reaction when you’re loudly (and wrongly) accused of making such statements while being recorded and stood over by a person twice your size?

          What’s reasonable when someone does that to your friend and then uses fighting words as you’re walking away?

          Go try that outside any pub anywhere in the world and get your teeth knocked out for your trouble.

            So you aren’t even willing to recognize the possibility that the other kids were being genuinely racist, got it, no need to waste my time with you.

              Oh they were accused so they’re definitely guilty!

              Starting a fight in a hallway was obviously the best way to handle this. You are clearly the genius we need to solve racism in schools.

              If anyone is accused of racism you get out your phones and then publicly lynch the person.

              It was so simple all along!

          Glad we’re on the same page, she clearly used fighting words to escalate into violence which was her original intent, as proven by her friends filming.

          She just got the wrong opponent from the other group. She was obviously intending to beat down the white girl that was half her size.
