Article 1: Student Suspended for Insulting Teacher on Facebook

Which court standard did someone follow or break in your article?
The Constitution bars schools from speech, unless speech creates material or substantial disruption to the school environment.
Do you agree with the decisions in your article?
Some what, he shouldn't be made to think that what he did is okay, but at the same time everyone does have freedom of speech.
What do you feel should have been done in this instance?
That he shouldn't have had any legal punishment but probably a talking to by the school.
What do you feel will be the future of rights in today's digital age?
I feel as though peoples rights through digital means will be somewhat blurred. I think it will really depend on what the person said or did. It is never going to be just black and white there are always going to be shades of grey with this topic.
What rights do you have inside of school?
All of the same rights just as long as it is not disruptive to school, vulgar, or inappropriate.
What rights do you have outside of school?
Freedom of speech, freedom of press, freedom of religion, freedom of assembly, and freedom to petition.
