Draggingtree Posted June 20, 2016 Share Posted June 20, 2016 School Punishes Meat-Eating Thought CriminalPosted on June 20, 2016 by The Political Hat Do you think that “vegetarians are idiots“? If so, you’d better shut up about it, or else you’ll get punished for it. This is what is happening to a sixth grader who uttered those words to another student. “The case began on Oct. 30, 2014, when the two 11-year-old sixth-graders were having lunch in the cafeteria of Montgomery’s Lower Middle School. One of the students, identified in court papers as C.C., made the comments to another student, K.S., about his decision not to eat meat. “The investigation by the school’s anti-bullying specialist, guidance counselor Lesley Haas, found that C.C. told K.S. that ‘it’s not good to not eat meat’ and that ‘he should eat meat because he’d be smarter and have bigger brains,’ according to court papers. “C.C. also admitted that he told K.S. that ‘vegetarians are idiots.’ “[Vice-Principal] Haas concluded that C.C.’s comments met the legal definition of harassment, intimidation and bullying under state law because they targeted a student’s ‘distinguishing characteristic’ and ‘substantially interfered with the rights of K.S. and had the effect of insulting or demeaning him.’” http://politicalhat.com/2016/06/20/school-punishes-meat-eating-thought-criminal/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
