Yeah even kids have due process. If there's no "Code of Conduct" contract/handbook, etc. it may not be as easy as kicking them off. These days the first thing the parents look for to circumvent the loss of priveledge is to ask, "Is it in the handbook?" If it's not, get ready. Also has to be signed "receipt" letter on file.
Now that the race card has been played where is the ref from? Marble Falls, TX is 83.1% white and 3.9% African American.
Surely it's the refs fault. Obama says if he had two sons they'd look like the two kids that assaulted the official.
These boys behaved so badly, I'm not sure they'll have a parent with enough brains to know what "due process" is. Now, in Plano, you can bet there would be litigation up to everyone's ass over something like this. A few years ago in McKinney, just north of Plano, two cheerleaders were kicked off a squad for drinking alcohol while in uniform (and it was posted on Facebook or something.) The girls had signed a contract about such behavior, and the cheer sponsor kicked them off. Then, the cheer sponsor gets fired out of nowhere--until it comes out that one of the cheerleaders kicked off was the principal's daughter, so she fired the sponsor out of spite. Ultimately, the principal was fired, instead, and the girls remained kicked off the squad.
If I'm not mistaken, that was in 2006 and it ultimately became a TV movie called The Fab 5, Texas Cheerleader Scandal. It starred Tatum O'Neil as the principal and Jenna Dewan as the coach. I believe these are the real ones.... And these are the TV ones...
I didn't know it became a movie, but it made a pretty good soap opera on the local news when it happened. I know I was happy to not be working for that bitchy principal.
I don't know what the real coach looked like but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the TV version is hotter.
