Public Criticizes Southampton School District Over Student Bullying

Why do you automatically think that the bumper stickers about Obama were due to racism and not a difference in political opinions? There have been people for and against EVERY president in our nation's history. Why should Obama be treated any differently just because he is black? Wouldn't that be racist?

I'm not trying to get into a political, racial, or economic debate. I am just soooo tired of people blaming everything on racism and/or wealth." Oct 7, 11 4:53 PM

Southampton High School Student Will Not Return To School After Shotgun Arrest, District Says

Are you kidding me? Where would you even come up with the idea of an "irresponsible parent"? These speculative remarks are SO frustrating! (and inaccurate)" Oct 26, 11 5:33 PM

For those of you wondering what he did wrong, read the Board of Education "Code of Conduct", here's a link (read the top of page 3): http://www.boarddocs.com/ny/shufsd/Board.nsf/files/8KR2HW02524D/$file/Code%20of%20Conduct%20-%20Policy%20%235300.pdf
It doesn't matter if he was hunting or trying to hurt someone, if it was his or his friends, you CANNOT have a gun at a school! Although we shouldn't crucify this boy, he must be held accountable for his actions. If we don't want follow established policies, why bother having them?" Oct 26, 11 5:46 PM

That's an extremely harsh accusation. Perhaps you should find out factual details before you come to your own conclusions. No- he shouldn't have a gun, and ye-s he should be severely punished, BUT his intention was not to hurt anyone." Oct 27, 11 6:31 AM

Parents Blast East Hampton School Board Over Handling of Graffiti Incident

Questioning is part of an investigation, not an accusation. I am sure that we could all agree that this matter should certainly be investigated. What would be said about the school if they did not interview the team that is supposedly being singled out? The school is 100% in questioning every person that might potentially have information about the incident. This happens in police investigations all the time. Just because someone asks a question does not mean that they are guilty. Relax and be grateful that the school is investigating. I am sure that if the roles were reversed and the soccer team hadn't been interviewed, the volleyball team would have had a very different opinion of the concept of "questioning" & "investigating"" Nov 16, 11 4:28 PM

Cops: Woman Sexually Assaulted In Southampton On Sunday

This story sounds very fishy-circumstances, inconsistencies with regular procedure,etc. It should be interesting to learn the detail as the emerge, but until then people should not be so quick to pass judgement on the victim or the alleged attackers." Jul 25, 12 2:24 PM

Yea, something is not right..." Jul 26, 12 12:23 AM
