High School Student Hit With Suspension After Saying “Illegal Alien”

This is insane.Show more

A 16-year-old student at Central Davidson High School in Lexington, North Carolina, received a three-day suspension after spouting “illegal alien.”

The student’s use of the term arose during an English class vocabulary exercise that included the word “alien,” prompting him to ask, “Like space aliens or illegal aliens without green cards?”

A confrontation ensued with another student, leading to the teacher summoning the assistant principal, who ultimately deemed the term “offensive and disrespectful” towards Hispanic classmates, resulting in the suspension.

The student defended his actions, stating he was asking a question and not making a statement directed towards anyone, highlighting that the term “illegal alien” is commonly used and can be found in the dictionary.

The suspension could potentially impact the student’s academic record and jeopardize his aspirations for an athletic scholarship.

Despite efforts to resolve the situation, the assistant principal has refused to remove the infraction from the student’s record.

@ElonMusk weighed in on the situation, calling the incident “absurd.”

It seems like every day, we’re told to respect people’s pronouns, but they don’t even respect our ability to use dictionary terms.

It’s not a question of if something is going to happen but when.
