Seriously? People with religious beliefs you don't agree with aren't entitled to privacy? And if they disagree with the policies they should spend tens of thousands of dollars on a private school?
- anigbrowl 14y agoThere's a diminished expectation of privacy on a school campus. I might be sympathetic if the student were arguing for a greater degree of privacy, but arguing that the school is trying to brand her with the mark of the beast is bullshit. That kind of irrationality was long held up as an excuse to torture and abuse people who didn't subscribe to it, so I have no sympathy when it's played as a victim card. There are many religious schools and homeschooling options available for people who are determined to follow ultra-orthodox beliefs.
