REVERE, Mass. (MyFoxBoston.com) -- A local high school cheerleading captain was disciplined after she sent out a tweet about illegal immigrants.
She says it was a political statement, not a racial one. FOX25 spoke with the teen who says she was taking a page from Donald Trump. Caley Godino is a senior at Revere High School and she says part of their homework is to watch these presidential debates and her tweet was simply about a hot button issue in the headlines.
"When only 10 percent of Revere votes for mayor cause the other 90 percent isn't legal," Godino said in the tweet.
She says it was a response to a tweet from her teacher about the low voter turnout for November's mayoral race. Caley says she meant her tweet as a political comment, not a racial one.
But after other students complained, the school stepped in. Revere Superintendent Dianne Kelly says the district believes in freedom of speech, but cannot support what she calls insensitive language.

The superintendent comments are pure liberal BS.

Her very definition, is what the framers had in mind that needed protecting.
These people are actually in positions of teaching, go figure.

Government officials in Massachusetts town condemn
"racially insensitive speech" by resident Paul Revere
shouting, "The British are coming! The British are coming!"
Revere is one of the near suburbs of Boston. As such, the code of political loyalty is strictly enforced. All the school employees and the students are expected to adhere to the philosophies and instructions of the Party, or face reprisal or disciplinary action, not unlike the fate of the heretic in Medieval times. None of this should come as a surprise, although it is ironic that the birthplaces of liberty, such as Boston and Philadelphia, should have come to such a fate. Some of the most aggressive parasites go right for the life's blood.

Makes you wonder what our flag would look like today if PC had been the language of the day.
No doubt a white surrender flag.
So this superintendent is only for freedom of speech that is all warm and fuzzy?
The tweet doesn't make grammatical-sense anyways. I'd have gotten a 'D' over it...
So defending a low IQ doesn't bring-out my entire arsenal of patriotic-outrage. If 'other students' were the ones who squealed, I'd advise her go after them one-at-a-time. Solve it on the playground.

Nah, she's a kid, the teacher should have graded her accordingly, instead, we're exposed to what has become standard of low IQ in the teaching field, where the meaning of the Bill of Rights is being bastardized.
Ask yourself, what lesson did these kids learn from all this?
That Freedom of Speech is only free as judged by PC rules.

Yep, they weren't trying to protect nice speech everyone agrees with. In fact the framers would have seen attempting to protect speech everyone likes and agrees with, to be that of an exercise in the absurd. A total waste of their time.
Left wing fascism.
This is why 40% of millennials don't believe in free speech if it's deemed offensive.
Who gets to decide what's offensive?

If anyone ought to sue, and be awarded fifteen million dollars. It's this girl, not achmed the terrorist in training over there in Qatar.

Liberal thinking in a nutshell. "We believe in free speech, unless we don't agree with it."
