    Thank all sorts of fuck for this school district officials.

    I hope they separate the kids in their community service, and also that the parents do something about it later. It's a shame the kids get death threats (as one of the fathers say), that's uncalled for, but I really hope they fucking learn something.

    Fucking brats pisses me off...

    Kids got punishment that was deserved. Glad they experienced justice first hand.

    Good! Hopefully they will have enough time to think about what kind of shit they pulled.

    They're middle schoolers, which means they'll take this as a vacation, and they'll have plenty of time to finish their community service. Not much going on with this punishment, I'm afraid. Kids will be kids.

    They won't have a 1 year vacation. Quoting the article;

    The students will be transferred to the district Reengagement Center, it said.

    Does this also mean they have to make up this year of school next year? In essence flunking a year and repeating. That would make this punishment even more just.

    a completely over-the-top punishment set in place only to soothe the screaming public masses calling for the kids' blood.

    This is my opinion on it.

    They only got this super harsh punishment because all of the outrage over it.

    Seeing as the majority of the kids probably fell to group pressure.... and ultimately a year out of school in a detention center is going to set them in a bad place for the rest of their lives... its a completely unreasonable sentence.

    Yes because it is perfectly acceptable for kids to be totally rude, disgusting, hurtful and disrespectful... When i was a kid/teen i was brought up to respect my elders, to have manners, to not judge people etc and so on, all things i currently teach my own children, but seems that this is not the norm these days, but that is a whole other thread.

    The little pricks would not want to be alive if they where mine.

    Not only that, but it's not as if jerks like that are an isolated thing for these middle school kids or Greece NY. I have seen college freshmen bully and harass people in the dorms in the exact same manner. It's common everywhere, and sad that people don't do much about it.

    OF course, and if I had a child who did such, they would be in a world of trouble... but this is state-derived punishment that will be setting them back for quite possibly their entire lives.

    They were the best place to make an example for all the other little douchebags, because of how big it apparently was/is.

    Kids deserve it, imo. No reason to act like that.
