My guess is that this is simply one of those “anything to get out of class” moments. I’d probably leave school too if I was still in high school. And I would have probably been drunk or high within an hour or two after I left.

I went to school during the Vietnam war. There were a lot of kids in sympathy with protests, but I’d say it was definitely less than half (in a blue area) that wanted to walk out occaisionally.

Then there were those who’d walk out having no idea what they were doing outside of cutting class.

Then there were the kids who were made because they wanted to go to school.

You only need a few students to make chaos.

I can’t give a damn about a hamster if in NY they can still kill a human baby with no consequences.

Imagine that. Government school students behaving like their liberal task masters want them to....
