14 High school students suspended for rap lyrics
Mon, 02/14/2005 - 11:43am
 Fourteen high school students in Johnston, Rhode Island were suspended from school last week for recording a hip-hop album that administrators deemed vulgar and violent, according to the Associated Press. The students each received a five-day suspension and are required to perform community service and receive in-school sensitivity training once they return from their punishment. The group sold 50 copies of the album, which featured lines like “I just wanna grab the Glock and cock it back / kill everyone here, how ... is that,†before concerned parents contacted school officials. A first amendment attorney said of the situation: “School officials have a much stronger claim to jurisdiction even though the materials were created off-campus.†A report by the school superintendent is due this week. ----------

it's true, it's a violation of the first amendment, but look at it like this... isn't it illegal to say the word "bomb" at an airport or on a plane? people just took it as a threat... just tryint to look at early warnings... i do believe the punishment may have been outta line, but they were correct to take a look at the situation a little closer... cuz while those type of lyrics are very common in the rap industry (a little TOO common) that shouldn't be distributed in a school like that... coulda been another Columbine in the making, so yeah, i say, take a closer look....
