What I'm saying is that if someone complained while the students were filming the video on school…Read More property, THAT'S harassment. Watching a youtube video where "twerking" is in the title is like having a video that says "naked body parts" in the title and saying "Umphh, I'm offended that I watched a video that showed skin." JUST CHANGE THE CHANNEL!!! DON'T WATCH IT!!! If they played this in the school on a tv in the main office area where unsuspecting folks could see it, that's a legitimate sexual harassment case.
Now, the "humping a wall" is kind of silly. I think it's stupid but if this is the worst thing they've done, cut them some slack. They probably won't do this again. Strange that the video is still up on youtube so apparently the lords of youtube don't see it as being extreme.
My opinion is that the school is embarrassed, the kids used school equipment to film it, and the school can't think of anything legitimate to chastise them so they're going to label them as sexual deviants, a charge that will be on their permanent record. Suspending them for two days is fine. They deserve some punishment for filming using school equipment on school grounds (unless the person who gave them the camera was a school employee and knew what was going on, in which case he/she should be suspended for a month). Hopefully their parents are giving them more grief than the school ever could.
Now if one of them had eaten a pop tart into the shape of a gun, we could have locked them up for life!

I have no answers, just questions.

I don't understand this "sexual harassment" thing. Who was harassed? The students making…Read More the video wouldn't complain. If you watched the video on youtube, you "volunteered" to watch it. If you saw the video on TV, the TV station should be responsible for showing "harassing" material. That's like going into an F-Street bookstore (RIP) and claiming you're harassed by what they sell.
