>No one discriminated or harrassed another student.<


You don't see the statement "Shoot that *insert racial epithet here* in the head." as being a generally harrassing statement? Funny, 'cause I do.

Ok, I doubt anyone thinks what these kids did is ok, but is anyone else bothered by the reaction to this, and the lack of reaction from the NAACP towards Jesse Jackson and what he said outloud on TELEVISION to millions of viewers?? (That he thinks Obama, whom he referred to as a n#%$, should have his genitals cut off).
