Did you hear about this story last week? I guess Judge Kagan could take out her tarrot cards and figure out what the intent of the high-school principal was. Would the principal have behaved in the same manner if it was Latino students? I don't know the answer but I'm sure the expert mindreader Judge Kagan could figure it out.

you guys are so good at changing the subject when you're called out.

throw some poo at the wall and when it doesn't stick, just throw some more.

you're incapable of defending your position. that's my takeaway from this pathetic intellectually dishonest distraction.

You are incapable of defending your position. That is why you have no answer to the real-life case that I posted the story to. Were the free-speech rights of these students violated?

Does it come down to the principals intent? How do we know what the principal's intent was?

I will give you my opinion. I think the principal's intent is irrelevant.

is that really "nuh-uh, you are!".

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.

there is no way that particular case, which i also believe has no connection to what kagan wrote, will go to the supreme court. the school board disagreed with the principal on what he had done, and the kids returned to school. based on what action would this then proceed? the board couldn't fight a battle, as they already conceded the principal made a mistake. as for intent, you'd have to find where the principal created a rule in the first place. his intent was to discriminate, he failed. the law might have been to keep the peace, but the intent was incorrect. how is that hard to discern? how does a bozo high school principal bely what she wrote? or was your entire point to just bring up this particular case, and this was the only possible segue you could find?

There is already way too many stupid-@ss lawsuits going around. Everyone should have a hot toddie and sleep on it. This broad may be ugly, but she may have a grasp of the constitution. How many times has a justice surprised their appointer and not quite ruled how they were thought to? I didn't expect O'bama to pick a conservative. He has no clue how she will rule on cases except what he knew of her in Chicago. I don't care what she does on Saturday night. She at least has played the American game of Baseball, as evidenced by her nice batting stance. That's a big plus in my book. $hit O'bama throws a baseball like he has never seen one in his life! O'bama throws a baseball like a Palistinian kid throws a rock! That's not a knock on his not being American.
