“Without any meaningful investigation, or any involvement whatsoever by the school’s Review Board,” the lawsuit claims St. Francis President Jason Curtis confirmed to reporters for the Mountain View Voice last year that the photograph showed the boys wearing blackface. Curtis cited that as an example of racism at the school and said they would face “serious consequences” for their actions.

The lawsuit claims school leaders’ actions were a “virtue-signaling attempt to be perceived within the community as ‘fighting against racism,’ regardless of the true facts and context.”
School is about to write a big fat check because they had a kneejerk reaction to outrage from dozens of Twitter SJW's who spend all day looking for shite to be offended by.

Who takes group selfies or even selfies for that matter of themselves wearing acne cream.

That's just a weird picture in general. I'm interested in the context. Were they doing a before and after photo to compare their skin after. Or maybe they were purposely trying to be edgy. Idk.




High school kids take pictures of everything. My nephew randomly sends me weird arse shite like this with some horrible pun.

ut it's also a private school so they should be able to expel whoever they want


Not for things that take place off-campus and have nothing to do with the school.

The school could arbitrarily expel you for anything. F that.

Your nephew sends you pics of him in a bathroom with other shirtless dudes?

Yeah. Welcome to private school. I went to public school but had several friends kicked out of the local big Catholic school for such atrocities as failing (or refusing) a hair follicle drug test, getting a MIP/DUI over the weekend, throwing a party at their parents' house when they were out of town, etc.

The other side of the coin is that if you were in the in-group or your parents were members of the right clubs, you could get away with murder. Get caught with coke in your locker obviously cut for sale in little baggies? Call your dad instead of the cops.

Are the Grey Americans unhappy about it?

As a parent of teens, i can tell you that charcoal masks are in all the stores in the acne and face lotion section. It’s a common cosmetic. You mostly see it with girls but guys are doing the face masks too. It’s cheesy and feminine, but they do it.

If it wasn’t done in uniform and/or on school time then it’s not the school’s business

But then again the school is in California and run by the holy cross brothers - same brothers that run Notre Dame university- university of virtue signaling

Context doesn't matter in the altered reality of the SJW.

All that matters is whether or not someone has been offended. Or has feigned offense for social points.

Girls do when they face mask. That origin one shown is actually one of my favorites

Well this opinion is certainly different than the usual "it's a private school they can expel for whatever reason they want" the OT is famous for believing when the student is gay, wears revealing clothing, etc.

Also, I think a private parochial school can dismiss anyone for any non-constitutionally protected reason.


If they allow federal money to assist in paying tuition (ie, student loans), then they are bound by the Constitution in regards to free speech, etc.

It was immediately obvious that wasn't blackface, but was some kind of facemask. These kids are about to be set for life.

Yup.

I had a friend kicked out of a small private Christian school because he had a party with booze. He was the only student from school there, but told another student about it on Monday, was gone by Wednesday

It's bull shite to get kicked out of school for something that didn't happen at school, but it's also a private school so they should be able to expel whoever they want

That may be true but they shouldn't be able to slander the students claiming they were being racist by doing the 'black face' even though it was with white and green colors. Let some nappy hair stank midnight basketball player wear some acne mask and its all good.
