Anti-bullying law is bullying, court told

Anti-bullying law is bullying, court told:
"It alleges that enforcing draconian and fluid anti-bullying rules violates the rights of students under the First and Fourteenth Amendments.

“What school officials conveniently seem to keep forgetting is that students do not shed their constitutional rights at the schoolhouse gate,” said John W. Whitehead, president of the Rutherford Institute and author of “A Government of Wolves: The Emerging American Police State.” “While we all want our schools to be safe, nurturing environments for our children, anti-bullying statutes – well-meaning as they may start out – are Orwellian in nature and inevitably run afoul of the Constitution’s protections for free speech and expression.”"
