Personally, I am not the slightest bit offended at the use of the word hell or any other profanities. I can hardly think of anything more ridiculous to punish a student for.
But that doesn't matter, and this is what is so wrong with these people defending he disobedient child. Rules are indeed rules. She broke the rule, and was offered a chance to apologize to make amends. She stubbornly refused, and expects to just have the consequences of her actions simply evaporate without even so much as an apology.
The fact that people cannot admit that what she did was against school rules is ridiculous and is obviously based on groupthink, which is what I was referring to earlier. It is a childish desire to spite authority figures, so they side with this disobedient child to live out their own fantasies of standing up to authority over arbitrary rules. Why can't a student say hell? Hell, I don't know. But it is well known that students cursing is against the rules in all schools nationwide. Rules are indeed rules, and what the absurd adults defending the disobedienT child are doing is saying to kids, "see, you can do whatever you want, refuse to apologize, and here are no consequences.". I realize that liberals hate consequences, but guess what? In real life actions have consequences.
