In schools a students speech can be restricted on the basis of interfering with the pedagogical process. Simply put, if you say or act in a way that interferes with others ability to learn, you can be punished.
I looked into this case and right now this story portrays one side of it.
1. No recording or verifying of exactly what the exchange between teacher and student was has happened.
2. The student was not suspended or punished in any way
3. The content of the speech was NOT the issue, the class was simply told to be quiet and something was said
4. When told to be quiet the student protested and a disagreement occurred concluded with the student removing them self from the class.
We should always give both sides time to tell their story before rushing to judgment with pre-conceived notions of what happened.
