"Someone", emphasis on "one". Can someone tell me the point of the walkout?

 

To show their support to a community apart of their school that has been bombarded over 3 times this past year alone with hate crimes simply because of their race. 

Your unnecessary attitude isn't needed.

This helps restore my faith in humanity a little. Good for them for standing up against racism.

I was shocked when I saw the picture, because I thought that arm gesture meant something else and they were supporting the computer post.... At least many students took part in the protest... I hope that there's no need for protests in the future

I know that's not what you meant, but if you thought they were doing the nazi salute, it could still be perfectly fine. the symbolism nazis used were positive and have nothing to do with the Holocaust.

there was a German holocaust before there was Shoah. German people were burned alive (which is what holocaust stands for) throughout Poland for years leading up to WWII. passion for revenge, and later desperation after Jewish deportation to Arab-ruled Palestine/Judea became impossible, is what drove the b---h crazy. Adolfo was antisemitic but never planned for this to happen. not when he was thinking of the salute for his great future state. 

the gesture itself (right hand forth) expresses the stepping into the fight (for the right to be right) and is as old as time. just like the oral salute which means "hail victory". the swastika stands for prosperity, moving forward.

so even using the exact salute nazis used, in this demonstration, could still mean you fight for black people's right to be right. people need to get over things. trying to be politically correct and remain inoffensive is often times what makes us less than correct in the way we treat history/culture. it's like Hitler was this godawful rock star we're trying to forget by not mimicking his brand. he's no originator. just a person with many right and many wrong opinions who had too much power.

again, just saying. I know what you meant.

oh please. it's nice what they did. it's always good to show support. but you just have to admit they went a little overboard with the revolution there. the message is so stupid, most wouldn't have even been offended. and it's not like the school had anything to do with it, which is the only point that needs to be made to call the walkout pointless. they could've been more creative. this comes off as forced and I bet it's most everyone's first thought on the event. stating the obvious isn't an attitude. it's a thought shared. no one is against support here.

The message was found on the website which means someone took the time to hack the schools page just to do some bullsh*t like that.

It is worth a walkout.

Can you tell me what the point of the walkout was that disrupted the learning of an entire school for a day?

Walkouts and demonstrations and meant to fight systematic injustice, not a single anonymous prankster twat.

That's redundant to the point of being doubly negative. But anyways...

My comment wasn't filled with "attitude". I'm stating facts. The site had nothing to do with the school or administration. Why was the school unjustly and inappropriately and arbitrarily interrupted?

But you're not them and they're not you so how would you know how they would've or should've reacted to the situation? And in the end it doesn't matter if it envolved the school or not it's the students education and if they don't feel safe around their, peers they have every right to voice an opinion.
