What a disgusting load of bullshit.
The school board is going to investigate. I wonder what will happen.
The article below has more details of the whole fiasco.
Anyone care to share the text of the article?
Disciplinary action taken by Principal Jason St. Pierre this week at Walker High School has brought national attention to Livingston Parish.
St. Pierre removed Kaylee Timonet from the Student Government Association (SGA) due to a video which was posted on social media showing her ‘twerking’ at an off-campus dance, which occurred after homecoming of this year.
The video, which was posted by DJ Savage who worked the event, showed Timonet and friends dancing to a song he was playing. The venue was later identified as Denham Springs Country Club.
advertisement Timonet’s removal from SGA also put two SGA-sponsored scholarships unattainable for the 4.0+ student, who is also President of Walker High’s Beta Club. In an interview with Unfiltered with Kiran (UWK), Timonet expressed just how badly she felt after St. Pierre levied his punishment.
“I felt like my life was over,” Timonet told UWK. "Everything I worked for since I was little, always worked really hard at school.
“Being student of the year, at least having a chance at it, has always been my main goal. I’m starting college this January. I’m done in December so it was a shock.”
advertisement Timonet’s mother, Rachel, was also in shock over the principal’s actions. She said that in a meeting with St. Pierre, she was told that the principal had referred to Bible scripture on several occasions and informed her he was ‘well within his right’ to enact the discipline he chose.
Local social media pages, groups, and residents took swiftly to the internet to express their displeasure. A Walker High student created a specific logo to represent the call that rose up from the community - ‘Let the girl dance.’ Many wanted Timonet reinstated, at a minimum, to SGA… others wanted St. Pierre to resign.
The story reached national media by Friday evening, including the NY Post and Yahoo News.
The school board Friday alerted local media that they have launched an investigation into the discipline, specifically St. Pierre’s handling of the meeting with Timonet and later, her mother.
Walker High School provided the News with a form which is signed by all SGA members. The form states that ‘failure to follow any of the aforementioned requirements, will result in immediate dismissal from Walker High SGA. Any action deemed inappropriate by Mr. St. Pierre will also result in removal.’
The form, however, does not mention anything about off-campus events, referring rules to school-based attendance. It is also vague on it’s references to ‘representing Walker High’ and where that representation begins and ends.
Fuck that asshole principal.
I bet his wife caught him jacking off to the video and so he had to react like that to save face.
weird comment
What, you haven’t had to ruin someone’s life because you got caught jacking it to them?! You need to live man!
thot patrolled
First was the teacher with the OF, now this?
So what you can’t shake your ass if you are smart? Thats bullshit. You should be able to strip AND get your masters degree. You should be able to take bikini pics and post your published research papers. What does it matter? Our species is marked by their brown noses.
You should be able to have an only fans and also arrest people!
I’ll say the same thing I said in that thread- I have more respect for her as an OnlyFans star than I do for her as a cop and if shooting innocent black people doesn’t disqualify you from being a cop, then being on OnlyFans sure shouldn’t.
But for real, you should. I know what you’re referencing, and I see no reason why you can’t have a side job in an unrelated field as a cop.
Funny thing is a lot of sex workers near uni towns will actually be grad students working to pay tuition costs, and not like “doctorate in underwater basket weaving” like the right likes to try and demonize all degree paths but work degrees as, I’ve seen MBAs and Law School students doing this too.
And shit its not a bad idea. If you can pull a lot of money each night you might graduate debt free. Which, in modern times, frees you of the noose of school loan repayments. I would much rather strip than have to pay these back right now on my inflexible career salary. Now, the abuse that comes with it is not okay. But that goes along with the demonizing of these profesions.
I mean there are safe routes, Tryst looks to be run by a cooperative of tech and sex workers, or at least started as something like that with the intention of making sex work as safe as possible.
Not the person you responded to, but I’m going to look into this. Thanks
Sounds like some religious bullshit.
“That I wasn’t basically following God’s ideals, […]”
Yep…
I bet you if a male student raped someone he wouldn’t withdraw the scholarship. It’s because she’s a woman. Well, not even a woman she’s just a girl.
Yeah these people are Christian, that distinction doesn’t matter.
,
Well when you apply for religious scholarships you should kind of expect this.
I didn’t see anything in the article about her applying to a religious scholarship. Source?
Jesus was friends with a prostitute. I’m sure he would be ok with some twerking.
The problem is religious nuts who take everything to the extreme .
Jesus would not condone modern day Christianity but that is not the point. Everyone knows what modern Christianity is about, and prudishness is definitely part of their ideal. If this girl applied for a Christian scholarship, she had to have known at least that much about the religion.
But a good lesson to learn from this story is stop posting anything on social media. Just live your life. If you wanna twerk, do it. No need to show the whole world.
She was in the background of the video, dancing while a different girl in the foreground was twerking. Did you even read the article? So just never go outside and dance ever because someone might record you dancing near someone else twerking and post it? Wtf kind of victim blaming is this? It doesn’t say she applied for a christian scholarship either.
Well maybe his friend was a classy prostitute.
Twerking’s demeaningly ridiculous. Like stripper, yeah, respectable. Stripping’s sexy, it’s alluring. Twerking’s just a somewhat athletically impressive display of how fast can you can convulse your pelvis.
Describing twerking as “sexy” is like someone doing a motorboat on your dick while you wag it bippidy-bippidy up and down across their lips, then trying to sell that as a passionate seduction scene in a romance novel.
Religion needs to be eradicated
By the will of the Emperor! Hail the Omnissiah!
At this point if anyone ever brings up religion to me outside of work, I’m just gonna shit on it. Tolerating religion is morally bad and religion should be as taboo as smoking.
I’m a bit of an asshole, but if someone is bringing up religion in public they should be shamed
Like, do it in private, but don’t bother other people with it. Seems fair.
Would you be ok with people being Nazis at home? If someone commits to an ideology at home, it affects their entire personality/interactions. I’d argue this is a form of tolerance which is bad.
Would you be ok with surveilling everyone to make sure they are not Nazis? While I am uncomfortable with the knowledge that there are some people out there who are Nazis in secret, that is still much better than them feeling comfortable enough to be Nazis in the open.
Also I would prefer even Nazis marauding in the streets to universal surveillance, which for me at least is hardly imaginable without at least a little Nazi ideology at government level.
Also I was talking about religion which in contrast to Nazi-ideology can be benign, when practiced in private.
I wasnt advocating for surveiling everyone. I was suggesting creating an atmosphere that continuously shuts down religion just like we do with Nazism. I accept that not everyone agrees with Nazis, but our general consensus is that Nazis are bad. The same cannot be said for our general consensus of religion.
Well, as I see it, it’s only organized religion that is harmful.
These groups get their legitimacy and authority by following an ideology everyone worships. There’s a reason why Scientology is seen as a stupid idea while Christianity/Islam are “ways of life.” It’s because the latter religions are popular and they become legitimate because of popularity. That’s why I think it’s really important to shame anyone who considers themselves a true religious person, to errode that legitimacy.
Religion is like a penis. You can do whatever you want with it at home, but don’t go waving it in people’s faces, and especially keep it away from children.
“That I wasn’t basically following God’s ideals, which made me cry even more.” So a state institution imposing religious virtues on a student? How is that constitutional, something for the ACLU perhaps?
Sounds like something the US would invade a country for doing
She wasn’t the one twerking.
She was dancing behind the twerker.
wow really
Why’d they show the picture of the underaged girl in an article about her twerking? That’s really weird.
Probably because her parents allowed it.
Because she wasn’t the one twerking in the video
Yes she was. You should read the article. It mentions the girls name, which is the same name on the diplomas the girl is holding. Also putting some random irrelevant person as the image would make zero sense.
No she wasn’t. The name matches because the article and picture are both about the person who missed out on the scholarship because of the twerking video, but she still wasn’t the person twerking in the video.
“[She] was seen dancing at a private homecoming afterparty on September 30 behind a friend who was twerking”
The person you’re replying to is pointing out that they aren’t showing the picture of someone who was twerking because her scholarship was revoked for being next to someone who was twerking.
Thot patrolled
Law and Order, special THOT unit.
Wow, imagine being called a “hood ornament of the school.”
Compared to Afghanistan where girls can’t get an education, I bet these Christians consider themselves very tolerant and progressive.
Religion excels at making idiots into massive idiots, and empower them too.
Wait until they find out their religion is just bullshit
You can’t find out that something is bullshit when you refuse to believe anything you’re told that doesn’t align it it not bing bullshit.
(Or to put it metaphorically: you can’t catch a ball you’re activelly avoiding).
What the fuck are you even talking about?
Problem with bulshit is, once the pile is high enough it’s very hard to convince people that there is no pony underneath.
And this particular pile has been heaped on for centuries…
Yes. It’s on me. Dumbass
How is this allowed? Are they gonna kick people out of college because they had sex once?
Lessons learned in Afghanistan i guess. Christian Taliban
Good
