High school student suspended, arrested for saying only 2 genders (Canada)

Missing the fact that the reason he was kicked out was for stating a fact that some snowflake didn't like.
Then arrested because he went back to school without recanting the statement that he believes there’s only two genders.
Snowflake? Or science?
So if he denied evolution, gravity or anything else, should he still be left to be in school to spread such BS?
Just as you missed the fact that he was not arrested for his statement, which is a right, but for his action, the crime of trespass.
Whatever you need to tell yourself to whimper about how oppressed y'all are.
As a Student or as a Teacher?
In this case, he’s kicked out because of his beliefs as a student. It’s not like he’s teaching others….He and the other students are there to learn if they’re not kicked out for their beliefs.
They don’t kick hard-core Christians out of school because they don’t believe in dinosaurs, do they? “I believe the world is only 6000 years old.” (?)
“Well sorry there little Johnny, but there is empirical evidence that the world is a little older than 6000 years and that’s what I’m teaching” would say the Teacher, under normal circumstances I’m assuming, & then the teacher would present the empirical evidence…. And then they go onto spelling, and then they go onto arithmetic, etc…
Valid counter-point.
I would think that a student who kept professing publicly that "No, the Earth is only 6000 years old" would have issues, for example.
But as been pointed out, he wasn't arrested for his 'beliefs', but trespass.
So even if Hypothetical student of 6000 years was told to leave, came back and still professed that belief, the school would, as with this student, have every right to get that kid arrested for trespass.
Precisely. Not sure about Canada, but in the U.S. schools are in loco parentis. The rights of students are roughly the same as the rights of minor children with respect to their parents. That's why they're not allowed to come to school armed (for now).
I'll accept that in Canaduh, it's all one-way: freedom-loving Cons who grant freedom and love to schoolkids without regard to what they're saying or doing, and Nazi-Commie Kenyan Muslim Soshulists oppressing good, decent White kids. Hell, what do I know? I've never been in a Canadian school.
Down hereabouts, though, it goes in all directions.
Or, as Heinlein put it:
"A man wouldn't go into school teaching if he didn't enjoy exercising cheap authority. It's the natural profession of little Napoleons."

Leastways that's how it is down hereabouts. I'm sure it's different in Canaduh, where there is only pure good and pure eee-vil.

Link to the "truth" please.....or is it true just because you say so?
Facts do matter, though. It is because someone doesn't believe the facts that this kid got kicked out of school.
