Little details except for some nervous looking school official, obviously terrified to call these kids truants....he just said something like "So many people are upset about this tragedy, they are looking for different ways to grieve."....that is NOT a real quote, just a paraphrase.

Again, not mentioned were George Zimmerman's injuries and witness accounts of Mr. Martin being on top of Mr. Zimmerman and punching him were also ignored.

Way to go, geniuses ... that’ll un-shoot him, you betcha!

Anyone who skips school to protest anything other than the fact that the school is a Marxist hellhole swindle should be expelled.

“Hey, let’s boycott the school” is an idea that would spread like wildfire among the students, especially if they got the idea that it would be an impromptu holiday supported by the powers that be.

Yup, the field of education has lost a lot with these “students” walking out.

Why not just let them go straight to jail...which is where they’re gonna end up anyway?

Be sure to provide them with an IPOD and some (c)rap selections.

This train has gone too far to now be derailed by facts.

Close down the school, fire the teachers, and return the money to the taxpayers.

Then let the protestors eat cake.

The IQ of the school just doubled. I remember the city folk left to go see Malcolm X the movie. It was the best day of school ever.

Give a test on the days subject, fail them, and nail them for truancy!

Pretty cool for a teenager to protest for a cause - especially when it allows you to skip class!

I’d be more impressed if their protest caused them to stay longer at school...

There’s something very wrong with this whole story.

Oh yeah, just an excuse to skip classes.

That’s what I was thinking. They should boycott government schools to protest the quality of government schools.

I was part of a walk out for our beloved HS principal who was unjustly fired by the corrupt school system in Atlanta.

It got local news, and a helicopter flew over as we spelled out his name in human letters.

That being said, I’m no fan of vigilante justice. But IMO if this had been a white boy killed I doubt we’d be hearing as much about it.

So, where were the protests when the white kid was burned alive?

Or when the young white couple were gang raped and murdered by six black thugs?

I’m guessing that the barbaric little thug picked on the wrong kid.

It’s a nice spring day.

Kids will look for ANY reason to skip school.

A phony outrage over some kid they never heard of?? Sure! Lets protest!

Check the nearest mall or movie theater- Guaranteed that’s where they went to “mourn and protest the social injustice”.

Anytime students leave a school in a “boycott” its laughable.. I don’t think every kid that does it does not have true intentions, but for every 1 that does, there are 40-50 who just are enjoying cutting class.

This is being ginned up big time by the usual suspects.
