Never too young for free speech

      While there are established limits to free speech, the Schenck v US rulling was narrow in scope and doesn’t apply to a little girl drawling a picture in school. If you’re going to cite case law at least find applicable cases and not just pick the 1st one in your search without reading the ruling.

      There are many more applicable rulings, mostly to do with how much a school can limit a student’s speech, even those do not cover everything, which is what the Supreme Court is for. Why do liberals constantly forget this? It’s almost like they don’t know constitutional law.

      “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

      Seems pretty straight forward to me.

    Here is my problem with cases like this. The family will win the case in court but the people who violated her rights will have no punishment.

    The people who keep violating rights should be punished

    “B.B.'s mom had no idea the punishment had taken place until another parent told her roughly a year after the woke nonsense took place.”

    The government should not be keeping secrets from parents.

      A child shouldn’t be punished without parental knowledge. Shit I grew up the 80’s and they couldn’t punish you without your parents knowing.

      This hidden agenda crap needs to stop
