Eurotrip Goose Step Salute (2004)
How times have changed. This movie was released only fifteen short years ago. Why all the outrage now? Are we devolving into a country where we are not allowed to have a sense of humor?

District Reopens Probe Into O.C. Students Nazi Salute Video
To paraphrase an old Pink Floyd song: "Hey, dipshits! Leave them kids alone!"
The kids are just expressing their frustration with the Marxist indoctrination they've been forced to undergo as a result of being enrolled in public schools. It's ironic that the solution suggested here is to force them to suffer through even more Marxist indoctrination. If these halfwits would pull their heads out of each others' asses for a few seconds it might possibly dawn on them that the smart thing to do would be to allow the kids to express themselves and to respect their freedom of speech. Is that really that hard of a concept to comprehend?

State law could ban schools from suspending students
Most students who are uncooperative in the classroom have very low IQs. Keeping them in the classroom will not change their innate level of intelligence. However, it will sabotage the education of other children. Which, of course, is the intention behind this kind of legislation: If you can't help the low performing students, at least you can hold the high performing students back, thus keeping the achievement gap from becoming as wide as it would naturally be if everyone were allowed to fail for succeed according to their own innate abilities.

REGARDING NAZI GOOSE STEP COMPLAINTS:
These kids are just playing around and being silly. Why make this into more than it has to be? Unless of course you're trying to provoke a backlash where it becomes fashionable for kids to do this sort of thing.

Proposed bill aimed to ban schools from suspending students for 'willful defiance' worries parents
Really dumb idea:
A proposed bill making its way through the California State Legislature aims to ban school suspensions for students who willfully defy a teacher, school staff or administrator has some parents concerned.

And the "reason" is even dumber:
Lawmakers backing the bill say suspensions disproportionately affect students of color, those with disabilities and those who identify as LGBTQ.

If these kids disrupt class, then they need to have consequences. What's next are we going to give "special" people the right to break laws?

panamint_patty: We already do give certain special groups the right to break certain laws. As you may recall, many people no longer call ILLEGAL immigrants ILLEGAL immigrants! When you teach kids that they are exempt from following the rules, then they expect when they grow up to be exempt from following the law. This is so stupid on so many levels!

Okay, let me get this straight. Students are not going to be held accountable for willful defiance? That's a recipe for disaster. But it's most likely the same idiots who support sanctuary cities who are supporting this ridiculous bill. What is Trump waiting for? Arrest all these idiots for treason and put them away for life. We don't need idiots like these people running things. Pure unmitigated stupidity!

mrfish: Sounds like it's likely to be the same dim bulbs who think high school should start later so that high school kids can stay up late playing video games who came up with this idea. We live in an idiocracy!

tronagirl: Yes, I've heard about the late starters! They claim that science is on their side with all their talk about circadian rhythms, but they have no clue about the science. The reality of the situation is just as you said, the late start merely accommodates the video gaming habits of many high school age kids. The sad thing is that the responsible kids who want to get up at a reasonable time are punished for the habits of the gamers. Ridiculous backwards culture we live in nowadays!

shadylady: It seems clear that starting later fails to address any real problem and that the so-called science used to justify it isn't actually science. For some reason liberals and SJWs like to use phrases such as 'the science shows' or 'research shows' and then just say whatever is on their mind despite the complete lack of evidence provided for their statements. Sometimes they'll actually mention an actual study, but they will fail to notice that there is no connection between the assertions they make and the results of the study. I've even seen this kind of thing done in testimony in front of Congress and no one seemed to notice at all.
