  1. Her parents must be so proud of her…and themselves. NOT.

    Like The Supreme Court of The United States of America doesn’t have any better matters to adjudicate…

    1. I would hope they are proud of their daughter Bob. She graduated high school, has completed her first year of college, was on the softball team, cheerleading, (not sure of any other extracurricular programs or clubs). Sounds like a hard working young adult. Are you suggesting that parents should not be proud of their child, if at the age of 14, in a moment of disappointment, turned to anger, they let out some curse words to their friends? Not sure how you were at 14, but boy do I remember saying “f this” a few times.

    2. Well, her parents were the ones that filed suit, took it all the way to the Supremes, and won, so there’s that…. This is EXACTLY the kind of case the court needs to hear. Social media and digital communication is still new and this type of dispute is going to be repeated often.

  3. Actually, it was the school who took it all the way to the Supremes, Chuck, not the girl or her parents. All of the lower courts ruled in favor of the girl and her parents, as did the Supremes.

    1. Exactly. Much like the many school boards out there right now that think they are nothing short of God when it comes to their power.
