“This failure is the School Administration. They are there to teach students and graduate them, not destroy their self-esteme by holding them back for an entire year.“

Quite so. Indeed the school hates these kids and is proving it with their reaction to childish stupidity. This is what white hot pure hate looks like.

I knew this deserved an Orwellian keyword, then I found thoughtcrime(s). Good thing, since the prime Orwell word I remember is Newspeak.

If you want to avoid thoughtcrimes you must use Crimestop:

“Crimestop means the faculty of stopping short, as though by instinct, at the threshold of any dangerous thought. It includes the power of not grasping analogies, of failing to perceive logical errors, of misunderstanding the simplest arguments if they are inimical to Ingsoc, and of being bored or repelled by any train of thought which is capable of leading in a heretical direction. Crimestop, in short, means protective stupidity”

The charges levied against the children include threats to commit a crime, with two of them facing additional charges for interference with civil rights.

I understand threatening to commit a crime, but how did they interfere with civil rights?

I am not sure what crime they “threatened” exactly.

If any eighth grader threatens to shoot down communications satellites with the laser array they have in their basement—and they have no such device or capability—if that a “threat” under the law?

Perhaps—but it is a dumb threat and a dumb application of the law.

Meanwhile groups of feral blacks rampage through urban and suburban public schools beating, injuring and killing white students and teachers...

Hatred and racism have no place in this community.

I agree.

You need to end all your diversity, inclusion, equity programs. End your racial set-asides, "integration" of schools, and race-based scholarship programs. Stop blathering about White privilege, White supremacy, White nationalism, and the evils of Whiteness.

If being “ignorant and stupid” is against the law, you are a criminal.

They were arrested and charged?

We don’t treat illegal aliens this way.

Scenario C: Black students beat up white teacher while using racist names.

These poor aspiring rappers that were getting their lives together and were going to go to college had justified rage because they are a minority. Teacher fired and students walk free.

“Good Lord, what kind of dystopian nightmare are we living in?”

A Leftist/Marxist one. Stolen elections have consequences.

Apparently. Nobody ever charged anyone for all the nastiness I had to endure when I started wearing a yarmulke in public. Sometimes by whites, sometimes by blacks. No internet back then. But I did get punched in the face once, and did get surrounded by an angry mob once years later, just as examples. Nobody ever charged. Criminal charges never interested me, either.

Life is tough. Grow psychic armor, and either pay back in kind or just ignore.

Is there no Uncle Ben’s rice on the local grocer’s shelf?

Perhaps I did. If so, I apologize.

The idea that law enforcement is monitoring middle-schoolers on Snapchat is revolting.

I most certainly had ancestors who were part of that.
