    Should students be disciplined for saying racially-insensitive things outside a school setting that ends up being shared online? It's not clear from the posted article if the photo was from a school-related event or not.

    This doesn't prove anything, but this Broncos player indicated it was taken at HOMS, which is the middle school.

    Denver Broncos safety Justin Simmons also spoke out against the photo on Twitter, saying he will not be doing anything for the school until disciplinary action is taken against the students.

    "This disturbing picture was sent to me from a friend. This picture was taken at HOMS where I used to compete when I attended another middle school down the road," Simmons tweeted

    In the original article I didn't see the names, pics or even the pic in question of the students posted. That would mean it would be even harder for the already small chance that a post on Clutchfans would affect the futures of those students.

    All of that said I hope this doesn't mean that these students are expelled. This should be a chance to educate them and others about why stunts like these are hurtful and hope that they learn from it.

    I blame the hip hop community of today and their emphasis on autotune and not moral and ethical rap like Public Enemy
    And lack of movies that taught morals like boyz in the hood

    today it would pronounz in the hood

    Yeah we're not going into the lake at our house. Any lake in Florida, you have to assume that gators could be in there.

    Bigger risk sending them to school could be a shooter in there.

    Sadly true, especially in public schools (fortunately, they are in a hopefully secure private school).

    Homeless people don’t want shelter
    They want drugs
    And this dude just wanted money for swimming to fetch some frisbees

    alligators don’t care about the reason why he’s in the water

    I'm sure DeSantis will protect them and find a corporation to go after.

    I’m sure he was, he should have been in California mowing yards with an electric mower if he really wanted to make money for drugs
