Students need to be aware of porn viewers

Students need to be aware of porn viewers

Regarding the issue of the men viewing pornography in the Oak Park Library, the school district is going to do the same thing about it as they are doing about the registered sex offender that lives across the street from Medea Creek Middle School. Nada. Nothing. They cannot and will not do anything about those men.

In fact, students can go around the pornography filters of the school computers and are viewing everything from Laker Girls to hard core porn right in the classroom with a teacher present. If a student "tells" on those activities they are told by staff that they pejoratively "ratted" and "tattled" and they have violated a rule among high schools students by "telling" on them.

We need to concentrate on the students. They need to be made aware of these men and others who gather around the classroom computers to enjoy hard core pornography. Good students must attend this school, yet they are taken to the library by teachers and paraded in front of those men. They need to be cautious of who is looking at them and about how to avoid the filth.
