Suspending her from cheerleading was a insensitive act of cruelty. They should have understood that her action was born of the trauma of rape, not of revenge, and excused her action this one time. But making this kid pay $45,000. to the school as reimbursement for their legal fees is a travesty of justice. She had a bonafide case in appealing the school's action against her, because the school had no regard for the pyschological trauma she suffers from the sexual assault this guy perpetrated on her. It is inhuman to expect a girl to applaud a guy who raped her, no matter who she 'speaks' for. The school could have easily avoided the $45,000. legal fees anyway, simply by having a little compassion for this girl and make a public apology for suspending her, then offer her the job back if she'd agree to cheer everyone on her team. Doing this would have restored the girl's dignity and offered a solution that likely would have satisfied both parties. But what they did showed that the public schools could care less about the students, it's all about their POWER.
As for the Court, their decision is nothing more than a cruel reprisal for her daring to stand up to a government run institution. In demanding she applaud a man who raped her, they asked her to do something that flies in the face of human nature. Even as a so-called 'school spokesperson' she likely froze and just could not do it. But then again, public schools teach all about homosexual perversion and expect the children to work through that grossly abnormal human behavior, so this isn't surprising. The government has lost its way and has brought America back to the dark ways of pre-Constitution tyrants.
She ought to write a book or sell her story to Hollywood and name names. Then she can use the proceeds to pay the school the $45,000.
