13-Year Old Girl, Strip Searched ; For what ?

[Master_of_Oldskool]

Was it even done by a woman police officer? If not that could also warrant a sexual assualt/abuse case.

Actually, it could warrant a sexual assault case either way, because technically even "heterosexual" pedophiles have been known to go after members of the same sex.

Anyways, this is the kind of thing I'd expect of my school, where, I shit you not, we were told in an assembly that we needed a signed note from a doctor to bring in COUGH DROPS. It is most definitely wrong, but it's probably going to keep going on.

I'd have come back with a gun.
I'm sure there's a lesson in there, but mostly I'd do it because it's just the right thing to do.

'Cause stripping a 13-year old girl is utterly creepy.

Creeppy on so many levels

I'm pretty sure that the supreme court are gonna have to say it is wrong

Ibuprofen? Are you fucking kidding me? We have that home in the press with the painkillers and whatnot.

Wait, yeah, that confused me as well. Ibuprofen? Really? If I wanted to, I'd go to my nearest pharmacy and get that for 10PLN (about $3) without any prescriptions or anything. What next? Searching someone because he took cough medicine to school?

Kids are too soft nowadays anyway, need a bit of hardening up.

With random cavity searches and paedophilia? I hope you don't work with children.

Yeah. As much as I hate today's children, nobody deserves such a treatment. It violates the basic rights... That's wrong, ESPECIALLY WHEN SOMEONE IS UNDERAGED!

I blame the whole situation on video games.

That's what scares me. Logically, this is wrong. Legally, it's wishy-washy (Schools have a lot of rights), and the Supreme Court is supposed to set personal feelings aside and go with the letter of the law.

I think she's overreacting.

She was 13. That's every kid's, let alone a girl just starting puberty's, worst nightmare, to be naked in school in front of authority figures. It'd lead to trust issues, at the very least.

You're not convincing me.

My comment had nothing to do with pedos...it had to do with legality and permissions.

Okay, I think we're in a different page here, so to speak, what do you think? Why do you think she's overreacting?

A lot of people can strip search you... private security guards(if you intend to stay on the property) and airport security. Also, the supreme court does tend to support the schools power to do things that protect the rest of the student. Now, that doesnt mean that you check your constitutional rights at the door but they can do reasonable searches. But, I dont think that the search in question will be constitutional. Even the law is unclear as to what the school can and cant do concerning this issue.

I hope you don't work anywhere you need to make choices, softie.

And this is why I have lost all respect for the school systems. We've had I think 3 students ever strip searched at my old school but those were on grounds of concealed weapons. At least we have an active police officer there at all times.

aye, the police officers at my school atre dip shits though, according to one "a person could drive up to the front of your house and hack into your computer, see everything your doing, in seconds, and anti-virus programs won't stop it" um riiiiiight

Well, right but a lot of that depends on how computer savvy you are.

That was a joke, right?

You mean you haven't played the newest game in the Bully series where you play as a dictatorial faculty member and violate the students' constitutional rights?

 

[Garzo]

Won't somebody please think of the children?!

Actually, students have very little rights. Things students do not have off the top of my head:

Freedom of Press (I took a journalism class and the first thing they taught us was that students are non applicable to this)

Freedom of Speech

Right to Bear Arms (not disagreeing with this one students should not have weapons)

The right to just cause on searches

 

[Sibbo]

Thats just not right. I'd be horrified if that happened to me or someone I knew. I hope the people responsible get disciplined

I went away with my girlfriend last year and at Heathrow they decided we must be terrorists and they gave us the special treatment. They frisked me but they checked inside her bra and everything. It was at that point I asked if they wanted to check inside my trousers. They weren't keen on the idea to be honest. Spoilsports.

 

[kommando367]

I would've broke free, tackled some people, and ran out of the office.

Naked?

I meant before that happend.
