    Antifa, probably. BLM, not so much. They’re not known to be violent in the way antifa can be.

    Do you withdraw this post and apologize for jumping to conclusions?

    We all know what happened here. The intolerant left discovered there were Trump supporters on the cheerleading squad and possibly beyond, so they do what they do best which is take whatever action is necessary to shut it down. If there ever is another event where the cheerleaders get to do their thing, then my bet is Antifa will be there and attempt to beat the crap out of the poor girls.

    What’s even funnier is that his pre-discredited post got three likes. It’s like people raising their hand and yelling “discredit me, too!”

    If the story about the Proud Boys was true, then I guess my original thoughts on the matter were incorrect.

    Very intellectually honest of you. Respect. It’s not easy to admit mistakes.

    BLM has never committed an act of violence. Antifa responds to violence with force. So,, yes I suppose that they would cancel the game if Antifa announced that they would attend.

    It is definitely a good thing (for these Incredibly Misguided Cheerleaders) that this was a PUBLIC School.

    Because if it was a PRIVATE School, the Cheerleaders would deserve Expulsion (with no appeal allowed) and no refund of tuition.

    I agree but cheerleaders today get scholarships and must have good grades

    Freedom of speech with a bunch of kids wanting to express their opinion maybe?

    How is it that a so-called professor is incapable of using the apostrophe correctly?
    How embarrassing for you.

    Coaches are fighting each other, there's shootings at high school football games, a big guy jumped onto the basketball court and punched a teenage girl in the face last night.

    The MSM is ginning up anger and driving the America people batshit crazy.

    That's correct usage. Outstanding prose and poetry writers use that often. Plus, it's kinda down home.

    Fox News ... no spin there, of course. "... additional information that could compromise safety measures ..." may seem weak to Trump supporters, but they are in the minority. Should the school have just ignored threats against the cheerleaders? What if one or more of them had been attacked by a "successfully indoctrinated student puppet" would you be okay with that? What if the entire football team of this school or the opposing school all rushed the cheerleaders and beat them up? Would you be okay with that?

    I'm kidding, of course, but idea that the cheerleaders or anyone else is being punished, or that anyone's free speech is being impunged, is ridiculous fear mongering. These are children. Their safety is the primary concern of school officials, especially in light of the fact that right wing Trump-loving nut jobs have been behind some of our worst mass shootings, some of which tool place in schools.

    Schools should not allow politics because as you see Trump has done a marvelous job in dividing the country and school is where kids should come together not be on different sides.

    Wow. From possible Trump haters to antifa? Good grief, the fear mongering never ends with the right.

    He won the election against Hillary fair and square under the law of the land. There's nothing for sane people to be angry about.

    Please do. There could be some entertainment value when those home-schooled due to political or religious ideology try to get their kids into college. I'm guessing there are many SAT prep companies salivating over the rise in business.

    In schools students do not have total freedom of speech where they can say whatever they want. In a classroom they are free to express their opinion but not be divisive at a football game. The fact that you don’t realize that speaks volumes.
    I wonder how you would feel if they had banners with Obama’s face on them and a sign saying we miss Obama
