I remember this on the news I thought they went to far Myself. It is to bad they did it. The principal should had hard proof before He ask for the police to raid the school what a fool He was in the end.

At least they got rid of that principal.  I saw the video of the raid with him narrating it and I thought he was an idiot.

Our high school principal wandered around during breaks to catch kids smoking, which was against the rules.  We never had a drug raid.

We had a drug raid in school once, but it was because one guy was keeping over a pound of pot in his locker and distributing to the other students. Remember Operation Intercept? It was about two weeks after that started and it was very unusual at the time to have drug sniffing dogs used in the school. The big bust happened at the high school, but every school was sniffed in one morning, while we were all outside for a "drill". They put half a dozen kids in the truck.

from the short video, it also seemed as if they were racially profiling.

Heh...  Our principal and some of the teachers smoked with the kids out in the designated smoking area.

I wouldn't send my kids to a school like that.  If they think that one or two kids are dealing drugs, they should search those kids' lockers.  I don't think that a school should ever be raided like that unless there is credible evidence of an immediate thread to other students (along the lines of a Columbine-style massacre).

i think that a kid should have a right to privacy also.  searching their lockers would be a breach of that right.

Including in their affairs with older people?

sure.
i see what you are getting at and the example you gave is flawed.  the older person broadcast this affair and tried to justify it.

i said before that i don't care what they do behind closed doors.  my problem was the fact that a moderator (a person of influence) was trying to seel the idea  on a support forum that is dominated by children.
Misunderstood.

Bah.Kids don't have a right to privacy.Any kid of mine is getting his stuff searched randomly whenever I feel like it so I know what the little bastard is up to. :police:

And I would be pissed if they did that to my kid.Random locker searches I have no problem with.But that raid with dogs and making the kids get down on the ground was a bunch of bullshit.

I don't have a huge problem with random locker searches either.  To a certain extent, schools have to take on some parental responsilities when the kid is at the school.  Most parents at least do some cursory searches of their kids' stuff, so it's not that big of a deal, and I dont' think that it's very traumatic.

You win this thread because that's most unsettling to even think about.

The difference between a parent and the police searching a kid's things is that if the parent finds something, the kid doesn't usually get expelled, go to jail and get a criminal record.

Well every kid needs to learn the lesson of what he can get away with where. In other words if dad finds some weed on you,you're probably just looking at an ass kicking. The cops find it on you,it's off to jail.
