They can definitely regulate the use of the word fuck in the school or in class, I am fine with that, but I know others that would disagree.
You could definitely change the facts just slightly, where a student posts something on social media during school hours while on campus...then is it fair game for the school to regulate/punish? I have to admit myself I’d want to know the context, but it really shouldn’t matter, either yes they can regulate the speech or no they can’t.
I think SCOTUS cherry picked this case, so they wouldn’t have to take a case with more compelling facts like a social media post while at school by a student bullying another student. Then again the justices are older, and disconnected from a generation that grew up connected to social media.
- jessaustin 5y agoI'm glad they're cherry-picking. They're more likely to get it right, and it's best if they move slowly. Ten years from now they can take a case from a student who will have been sent to detention for cursing her teacher's parentage during class.
