Report: Three Middle Schoolers Have Been Charged With Sexual Harassment for Not Using ‘They/Them’ Pronouns – Republican Daily

preview

It was long thought that “words will never hurt” you. That, as it turns out, was wrong.In fact, not only can words hurt, but you can be injured by your own — more precisely, the pronouns you employ.Just ask a trio of Wisconsin middle schoolers.As reported by Green Bay’s&nbsp;, three boys at Kiel Middle School have been charged with sexual harassment.Parents claim the boys are under investigation by the district for alluding to a classmate with the wrong pronouns.Last month, moms and dads were informed their children had violated Title IX by way of gender-based harassment. The youngsters had name-called on the basis of sex.Succinctly:The district claims the boys were not referring to the student’s requested pronouns of “they” and “them.”Following the news, one mother accompanied her son to school for a discussion with officials. She insisted the pronoun issue was confusing for him and that he wasn’t obligated to comply.Speaking to&nbsp;, Rose Rabidoux slammed the situation:“Sexual harassment, that’s rape, that’s incest, that’s inappropriate touching. What did my son do? He’s a little boy. He told me that he was being charged with sexual harassment for not using the right pronouns.”As for anyone’s demand to be invoked via “they”:“It’s plural. It doesn’t make sense to him. I said so, I told him to call them by their [name].”Attorneys are now involved. The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty’s Luke Berg lambasts the whole thing as hogwash:“It’s not sexual harassment under Title IX, under their own policy, under federal law, and it’s probably a First Amendment violation. Almost certainly, if that’s their theory, that solely using the wrong pronoun…that would be a First Amendment violation.”Furthermore:“Eighth-graders shouldn’t be subjected to this kind of investigation or this type of reputational harm for something that on its face clearly doesn’t violate Title IX in sexual harassment. Their own policy says that, if on the face of the complaint the conduct — even if proven — wouldn’t amount to sexual harassment, it should be immediately dismissed. And that’s what should have happened here, and it didn’t.”To demand how a student be referenced seemingly constitutes a case of compelled speech. But it appears compelled speech is increasingly endorsed by adolescents and institutions:For some, it’s downright religious:Back to Wisconsin, the Kiel Area School District’s Superintendent Brad Ebert has issued a statement:The KASD prohibits all forms of bullying and harassment in accordance with all laws, including Title IX, and will continue to support ALL students regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, ancestry, creed, pregnancy, marital status, parental status, sexual orientation, sex (including transgender status, change of sex or gender identity), or physical, mental, emotional or learning disability (“Protected Classes”) in any of its student programs and activities; this is consistent with school board policy. We do not comment on any student matters.As for pronouns, of course, they’re words generally spoken in one’s absence. So whether or not one’s orders are followed will likely never be known to them. Yet, as we continue to learn, it’s of the utmost import.In fact, mouth sounds ringing out away from a person affect their very safety:It’s an increasingly sophisticated world.And in Wisconsin — as well as all of America — there is surely much more to come.PamMay 16, 2022 at 1:13 pmThis is insanity. It’s time for some big lawsuits.SJDMay 16, 2022 at 1:22 pmKiel Area School District’s Superintendent Brad Ebert is depraved, along with the rest of the degraded, low IQ school administrators. They are attempting to control free speech for their agenda. Those boys should be protected.RobLMay 16, 2022 at 1:23 pmSome enterprising lawyers are going to get rich(er) helping these kids own the school board, the schools, and everything in them.May 16, 2022 at 1:25 pmDue to the Leftist claim that “gender” is whatever you think you are, and allowed to “be” whatever ‘gender’ you want to ‘be’ any time you want, and change it daily…. that’s the LSMFT rules!(or whatever)Trans people and the rest of the “alphabet people” should be required to wear a T-shirt proclaiming their chosen “Pronoun of the Day”, otherwise who can keep up?Larry BowlingMay 16, 2022 at 1:57 pmHow utterly stupid are the teachers unions and school boards that they would do this grave injustice to these boys?!?! The bigger question is this – how long are “we the people” going to to tolerate this kind of stupidity from teachers and school boards? I think enough is enough of all of this woke stuff and it is time it comes to an end. We are letting less than 20% of our population control how the other 80% of us speak the English language!!!WAKE UP AMERICA!Tom WildeMay 16, 2022 at 2:10 pmIf anyone should be charged it’s EVERY ONE of those teachers who are now indoctrinators. They’re teaching our kids racism, Communism and turning them into gender addled mush who would meet an invader at the border with flowers, gifts, welfare cards and a map to the capitol.So, WHERE ARE OUR DEFENDERS and the cowardly YELLOW GOP hiding these days? Too afraid to speak up because they might be accused of something by these COMMUNISTS?How pathetic!!! You can no longer call girls “girls” and boys “boys”. Why? Because Democrat/Communists don’t know the difference any more?Jabbers99May 16, 2022 at 3:20 pmShould have went with “It”.ZeldaMay 16, 2022 at 3:47 pmBeyond stupid!AniawaMay 16, 2022 at 6:35 pmWe in the South are sittin’ in hog heaven on this issue. We use one word to cover him, her, it, they, them, whatever their name is. That word is ya’ll. Now, someone is the woke crowd will find something wrong with this word. If, they do, why come on down south.A VoterMay 17, 2022 at 8:28 amSo now we know where the concept of the Borg originated from. You will be assimilated….you must comply… The constant push towards this kind of insanity will only lead to one endgame. Outright civil war and it must be stopped before that happens. One way to begin to dismantle this tyranny is to abolish the DOE and cease all Federal Student loan programs. As taxpayers WE are funding the Universities that are propagating these insane ideas and fulling young skulls full of mush with it.
