Nazi-Wannabes-in-Training ... in CALIFORNIA. Would YOU Hire These High Schoolers?

[quote]A group of high-school students in Southern California gave a Nazi salute and sang a Nazi song during an awards ceremony last year, according to video reviewed by The Daily Beast.

The video shows about 10 members of the boys’ water polo team at Pacifica High School in Garden Grove, California, throwing the salute once used to greet Adolf Hitler while singing a Nazi marching song played for German troops during World War II. Two more videos have emerged since this story was originally published.[/quote]

Upsetting, disgraceful, abhorrent? Yes, to many. But are they not protected by the First Amendment? Who hires them is up to a prospective employer.

The First Amendment is not absolute.

And this was at a school event on top of that.

I wouldn't yell "Fire!" in a crowded venue as a joke or prank as it's not protected. I believe though as I said, their actions, offensive to many and not appropriate, it most likely is protected under the 1st Amendment, but if it was a school event, then hopefully the school staff put an immediate stop to it and removed them from the venue.@beckyromero

They didn't .. and that why it has become a controversy.

Well, that's unfortunate. A situation such as what these high Schoolers did, could have easily led to and caused violence; and that's what the staff should have been cognizant of and put them out of the venue.@beckyromero
