1 Student Facing Expulsion And 20 Suspended For MySpace Post

California School Suspends 20 Over Website

Costa Mesa, California - A middle school student faces expulsion for allegedly posting graphic threats against a classmate on the popular MySpace.com Web site, and 20 of his classmates were suspended for viewing the posting, school officials said.

Police are investigating the boy's comments about his classmate at TeWinkle Middle School as a possible hate crime, and the district is trying to expel him.

According to three parents of the suspended students, the invitation to join the boy's MySpace group gave no indication of the alleged threat. They said the MySpace social group name's was "I hate (girl's name)" and included an expletive and an anti-Semitic reference.

A later message to group members directed them to a nondescript folder, which included a posting that allegedly asked: "Who here in the (group name) wants to take a shotgun and blast her in the head over a thousand times?"

Because the creator of a posting can change its content at any time, it's unclear how much the students saw.

"With what the students can get into using the technology we are all concerned about it," Bob Metz, the district assistant superintendent of secondary education, said Wednesday.

Metz said the students' suspensions in mid-Febuary were appropriate because the incident involved student safety. Some parents however questioned whether the school overstepped its bounds by disciplining students for actions that occurred on personal computers, at home and after school hours.

It seams MySpace is quite the little hotbed of controversy these days.

If they did it OUT of school, the SCHOOL shouldn't be able to touch any of the students involved.
I would hope that it WAS done out of school, rather than a case of the school letting it's students arse around on myspace while they should be studying...

I'd say...It's none of their damned business

The public school system seems to ALWAYS be overstepping their bounds...Especially since they have decided that THEY should be the ones to determine that 90% of school kids should be put on drugs...That's something that effects a person's entire life....School ends after 8 hours...Someone needs to tell them that

Hey, I was *gasp* using my cell phone earlier! No cell phones in school, I hope I don't get suspended!

Pretty soon, they'll be punishing people who've already graduated. In 50 years, "school" will be a big lumbering guy going around "expelling" people with a big 2x4.
"School want you do homework!" *thwack*
