I find the myspace issue of the school punishing not only the poster who threatened a girl but also those who visited the site very disturbing. Shouldn’t the law deal with the issue of a threat of phsical violance against the girl? and the school focus on education? Also how can you jusify punishment for just viewing the site. The girl herself could have gone just to see what was being said, so how if viewing a sign of guilt of anything wrong?
I think I need to make some things clear.
1st It’s not my school in fact I’m old.
2nd The posting was on MYspace.com and not done dure school time or with school property.
3rd. And as I stated they are punishing students for viewing, with no proof the student agreed with post or not.
