- dmkolobov 6y agoSure, but I heard the words "you do not have rights" from just about every administrator and authority figure in the school system while I was growing up. This was Nashville 2002-2010. edit: Just wanna say that the information in your link is valuable, and students should absolutely know about it. In my experience, there's just wide discrepancy between the way the world works and the way authority figures present it to children who don't know any better.
- mrguyorama 6y agoThis isn't limited to just school personnel. Cops aren't too fond of people knowing their rights either.
