well done, sir. i really don't have a defense for that nuclear bombshell of a debating tool. you're like a black belt ninja of stupid internet debate distractions.

if i answer this one, do you get to post another random link and insist i debate that non-relevant point also?
How is that story not relevant? It is totally relevant. It is a real life case that involves all the issues that are being discussed.

I think it would be impossible to ascertain the principal's intent. There is no way to know how the principal would have responded had the students been Latino.

But I don't think the principal's intent is even relevant. If these kids sue and the case ends up going to the Supreme Court, I think it would be a mistake for the Court to try to decide the case based on the principal's intent. Either these students' rights were violated or they weren't violated. I don't think the intent of the principal is relevant.
