Kansas School UNCONSTITUTIONALLY Disciplines Student For CRITICIZING Gov. Sam Brownback

Sam Brownback: Bitchslap nominee:rofl:



" In a blatant violation of the First Amendment, a public high school in Prairie Village, Kansas disciplined a student for speaking out against Gov. Sam Brownback (R-KS):

Emma Sullivan, a senior at Shawnee Mission East High School in Prairie Village, was in Topeka on Monday as part of Kansas Youth in Government, a program for students interested in politics and government.

During the session, in which Brownback addressed the group, Sullivan posted on her personal Twitter page: “Just made mean comments at gov brownback and told him he sucked, in person #heblowsalot”

On Tuesday, Sullivan was called to her principal’s office and told that the tweet had been flagged by someone on Brownback’s staff and reported to organizers of the Youth in Government program.

Sullivan said the principal ordered her to write letters of apology to Brownback, the school’s Youth in Government sponsor, the district’s social studies coordinator and others.

It’s troubling that Brownback’s staff is so thin skinned that they felt the need to call down the government’s wrath on a high school student who had the audacity to criticize the governor. If nothing else, one would think a state governor’s office has better things to do than troll the internet looking for young dissenting voices they can intimidate.

6. I don't know. Walker canceled his trip to Kansas.

Did you hear about that? Maybe 2 weeks ago> Walker was going to speak - I think in Hutch? And just a few days before the speech, he canceled. The unions had planned on taking busloads of people to protest.

Don't tell me Brownback wasn't involved in that decision to cancel.
