AFAIK, the students made no threats against teachers here.
From the content posted on this site, one of the students made a comment about getting "the [racial epithet] out of here." That kind of remark about a protected class of student could be construed as a threat.

Also, this case never made it to the Supreme Court & Hoover is subject to the 11th Court, not the 5th, so theres no way that decision would apply atm.
My point was that there was legal precedence. I wasn't conducting an exhaustive search. The SC's refusal to hear the case only confirms to me that the school district acted within its rights to discipline the student's speech.
Your additional example deals with libel, not an expressed threat.
There have also been plenty of cases where students have been disciplined for posing with toy and real firearms on social media while making veiled threats.

The kids I knew in high school that said shite like this did so because they were racist assholes. People trying to explain the behavior away by essentially claiming "teens say the darnest things" is a little ridiculous.
I did say stupid things as a teenager. Absolutely plenty. Of these stupid things, none of them included anything close to the racist bs included in that video.

it was off campus & on a weekend - should the school be able to discipline these kids?
Private school? Of course they should.

Racism and anti Semitism in Anerica. Not news as enabled and encouraged by the White House and Fox News.
If there weren’t any Jews or blacks present did either of these occur?

Why the hell did they post this video on internet?

Dude every high school in Alabama is like that. Their parents talk like that at home. Nobody considered Spain Park the “other side of Hoover” before they built the school there. Rich white kids are entitled and spoiled.

Ehh, Jews say Jews and blacks say the N word. I don't really find those terms racist anymore. I didn't watch the video though, just going by what the op posted.

The kids I graduated with were the same way. Boys and girls both. I can remember almost every desk having swastikas drawn on it and racial slurs.
99% white private school
Honestly teenagers just think it’s cool to be edgy, rebellious and hateful and eventually grow out of it.

Were they filming a rap video? Pretty much the same language used by rappers all the time.
They hear that word several times a day.

Yeah, the least homogeneous states. We should all strive to be like the states that 80% white. Because they aren't racist.

The funny thing about the types of kids in the video is they’re always the upper crust suburban whites that do this.
Rarely is it a working class-middle class baw type, even though this is the stereotype portrayed of your typical southern racist.

Gen z is gonna be a shite show when they get old enough to run for office
Libs say Trump emboldens this behavior & never peak at what their teachers are indoctrinating today’s kids with. When teachers have you publicly apologize for your white privilege it sort of puts a chip on your shoulder.
That being said, “those kids are wrong and their F U shouldn’t be aimed at Race or Religion but the ideaology that has them wound up!”

I'm sure their parents get pissed every time they hear about their kids being "indoctrinated" by commie liberal teachers but have no problem instilling their long held racism into them. Alabama gonna Alabama.
She was speaking as if from memory, not from her heart. It's sad kids are fed this racist bullshite in their own homes. The kid recording, based on his reactions to what was being said, has good parents.

They have zero recourse against students exercising free speech outside of school property.
You do understand that the right to free speach does not mean that you can say anything you want to say to anyone you want to say it to, right?

This story bothers me. Aside from a bunch of racist kids in fricking 2019, the writer's misuse of apostrophes is a god damn crime.

Eta: youre going to have a hard time convincing a judge that a state funded school has jurisdiction over off site speech of students.
What a fricking horrible take. Dude, those kids wouldn't even make it in front of a jury because the judge would throw their suit out before it got to trial.
As posted earlier, it's CLEARLY stated in the student handbook that there is an expectation of high moral and ethical behavior by students of the school, who are considered representatives of the school and its culture when they're off campus. Really, this verbiage shouldn't even be necessary; it's common sense.
You really think schools are going to allow their names tarnished and heightened tensions within the school by just letting kids get away with pure hate speech?
