    Spud, who was recording on his Ray-Ban Meta smartglasses, walked down the hallway by the main entrance while stating his support for ICE and law enforcement.

    Of course the bootlicker was wearing meta glasses.

      Didn’t the kid (Spud) also spout off about “school code”?

      I don’t know any schools that let you video record in a school without consent. Dude is wearing a recording device as glasses and did not get consent from anyone in the school. That’s against school code, bruuuuuuuuuuuh.

        The article says Spud did get one day of in school suspension for recording in the school. He also complained others were also recording. Maybe if spud had not posted the video online he spills not have been caught.

        I remember visiting the teens center at a local library. I saw a bit of nerd merch I thought was really cool, so I went to take a picture of it, and the librarian there was on me in a flash to stop photography. Recording protection is a real thing when it matters.

    “I stand for my beliefs,” Spud said after the two were separated. “I’m going to peacefully stand here and support my beliefs. I support ICE and law enforcement,” Spud said.

    “You can go peacefully f–k yourself!” the student who punched Spud yells.

    What a legend.

    “That’s against school code. No swearing in the school,” Spud responds.

    And what a weasel.

      It’s funny how they always support rules and laws when they benefit them, but ICE breaking the constitution multiple times per day isn’t an issue.

          This depends on the state laws. You have no reasonable right to privacy in a public setting in most states and schools are considered public locations. There is usually paperwork at the beginning of school that a parent signs that says something along those lines. Now when it comes to minor filming another minor, that adds another whole layer to it. But what could happen is someone could go on insta and request a takedown of the video if they felt they were filmed inappropriately.

            Schools aren’t full public settings, but limited public forums. First and Fourth Amendment protections are much lower, for example.

            And, yes, student expectations of privacy are lower, but a lot of things (like filming other students) are restricted for safety and to avoid “substantial disruption” of the learning environment. It isn’t legally justified by them being minors. Filming minors in public is generally legal.

            This kid would be in trouble for violating school rules around filming (or laws against stalking or something, but that doesn’t apply here).

            Legally, however, it could be argued that if his IG or tiktok or whatever is monetized, he’s filming for commerical purposes, which would require permits/releases, but that’s not what they’re focusing on here, either.

            And that’s not getting into potential FERPA violations and the like. Anyway, schools are an odd space, legally.

            On Tuesday – after the district’s four-day weekend – school officials spoke with Spud and gave him a one-day in-school suspension (ISS) for video recording in the school.

      Spud also has a blue Twitter checkmark. If it walks holding signs like a Nazi and quacks on a Nazi-owned platform it pays to use…

          There was a whole dialogue about “is it OK to punch nazis” in like 2016. Most libs in my life, including a college professor were very against punching nazis. I’m certain any comment section outside of Lemmy is full of libs going “You can’t just assault people because of their opinions, that makes you just as bad as nazis”.

            20 years ago I might have said you shouldn’t punch a kid for saying Nazi shit, because he doesn’t understand what he is saying and is probably just being edgy. By 2016 I was pretty on board with punching Nazis. In 2026, while I still would not punch a child because I am an adult, that’s about as far as I will go with that statement. Kid did good.

            That’s pretty much what’s happening right now in France. I hope we get through this kicking more fascist asses, hopefully once Lyon remember its fucking history.

            When your opinion is ethnic cleansing, no, using violence against that doesn’t make you as bad as the Nazis. Stop race hate by any means necessary. (Not saying that’s your stance, just my 2 cents to that dumbass argument)

                Calling you out for posting made up nonsense broadly attacking a group you frequently disparage is not vagueposting, that’s very direct. Even if you believe your prejudices truly are representative enough of the whole to warrant being shared, which no, don’t try and dismiss their criticism by reframing what they’ve said as something you can object to. That’s not what they were doing, and what you’re doing is transparent.

        Pretty much yeah. Like if you burn a school down or catch felony charges (Homey woulda got a misdemeanor if anything and a slap on the wrist punishment if it did go to trial.) thats a whole other thing, but popping a dude in the jaw? You aren’t losing your shot at MIT or Yale or whatever.

          You need to know that though. I disclosed a suspension I didn’t need to and got a rejection letter from my dream school, which was super interested in me until after they called me to ask about it. The rejection was dated the same day as the phone call, so I’m pretty sure that’s it, because they’d already separately sent two people an hour and a half to sell me on the school.

          The suspension was for going to breakfast with my carpool buddy on her first day back in school, after her grandfather died. On the way in, she started hyperventilating and saying she couldn’t go in that day and having her first experience with death, so we went to a diner instead. We got sandwiches and she talked about her grandfather for an hour, then she was calm enough to go into school. If we’d explained it to any of the adults in our lives, they’d have been fine with it, but we lied about it and got the minimum punishment for skipping school once it all came out (she folded). I didn’t realize that it wasn’t on my school record, so I included it on my college applications.

          If I’d gone there, I probably wouldn’t have studied abroad, which later enabled me to immigrate to Germany, so I’m not too upset about it anymore, but it sucked at the time
