Teen cheerleader's Snapchat brings Supreme Court clash over schools and free speech

Not sure she should've been suspended from the squad but not surprised it happened.

When 14-year-old Brandi Levy didn't make the varsity cut as a freshman cheerleader for the Mahanoy Golden Bears, she sounded off on social media, as teenagers are known to do.
quote:
"I was frustrated. I was upset. I was angry. And I made a post on Snapchat," Levy told ABC News Live. "I said, 'F school, F cheer, F softball, F everything.'"
quote:
When she posted the vulgar message to her friends on a weekend in 2017, she never thought she'd hear about it again. But days later, the school accused her of breaching a code of conduct and suspended her from cheerleading for an entire year.
quote:
"This is the first time that the U.S. Supreme Court is going to decide whether the rules that apply to kids when they're in school also apply to their speech when they are outside of school," said Sara Rose, an American Civil Liberties Union attorney defending Levy in the case.
quote:
"When they're not under their school supervision, kids are under their parents supervision and the parents are the ones who should be able to decide what's appropriate for their children to say when they're at home," Rose said.

I mean, it’s dumb that the school did this, but also dumb that you put it on social media and then got upset when people reacted to it.

Looks like a female version of Michael Shannon

What's the point of suspending her from a team she didn't make it on?....

Absolutely ridiculous to have arbitrary rules imposed by school administration apply to your life entirely until you leave school.
Forget executive branch overreach, now teachers and administrators are dictators?

I probably would have had a similar reaction, but we didn't have phones or social media platforms back then.
I probably would have just said to my friends at lunch, frick coach whoever.

This thread is going to be full of people agreeing with the ACLU. An OT rarity.

Didn't make the varsity squad because that face is busted.

Public schools should have zero ability to enforce arbitrary rules outside of the school itself.
Private schools can have any contractual requirements for entry that they want.
Did she attend a private or public school?

I'm not sure there is a worse set of unelected bureaucrats than public school administrators. She should absolutely win this case.

After seeing her picture I assumed this was just another transgender thread.

Never put in writing anything that you wouldn't want anyone to read.

I guess I'm pretty lucky.
I have literally done a pretty similar tirade about my school back when I was in high school.

Hope she wins.
If public schools can can dictate speech outside of school what else can they dictate?
Dress code? Use of firearms? The practice of religion?
IMO this is an overreach by the school.

She ain't from my tribe based on that picture!
She should have stuck with the religion of Levy and if they still screwed with her she could have called her grandparents and had them assess NSF charges on those who wronged Levy's bank accounts. This post was edited on 4/2/21 at 1:21 pm
