Facebook libel

The Cincinnati Enquirer has an editorial and follow up emails about a group of students who posted about a certain teacher being a pedophile.

What was interesting, was this particular excerpt from the story
Legally, the students' lawyer may be right that the school has no right to interfere with whatever stupid things they say or do outside of school. But the outrage is over the monumental unfairness of the situation to the teacher.

Students' lawyers?

I'm just guessing but the fact that the parent's "lawyered up" instead of beating their kids and dragging them down to the school by the hair to apologize to the teacher, the principal, etc. for their behavior is exactly why their kids have turned out to be the punks they are.

For these parents, congratulations; you've raised yet another group of our future delinquents.
