Florida Judge backs antisemitism coverup

There is a considerable Jewish presence in the ACLU so that is presumably why they are the ones pursuing this. It is a disgrace that the schools seem to think that Brownshirt behavior is a yawn. That they refuse to reveal their records makes it worse. It shows that they are trying to shield their antisemitic students from court prosecution over the racist attacks.
"The ACLU’s battle to obtain school records surrounding a 2009 incident in Collier County, Florida, referred to as “Kick a Jew Day,” have failed. A judge has dismissed the group’s lawsuit, which sought to obtain records detailing 10 middle school students‘ discriminatory plans and behaviors as well the school district’s investigation of the incident.

Two years ago, on November 19, 2009, the children decided to imitate a “South Park” episode — with a twist. While the fictional cartoon characters in the show targeted red-heded individuals with a “Kick a Ginger Day,” the Collier County students apparently did something similar — an effort to target and kick Jews. In the end, they were punished with a one-day in-school suspension, which some critics believe wasn’t enough.

Since the incident, the ACLU has continued to seek the documents in an effort to look further into the incident. While the group cannot refile the case, it may be heard by the Second District Court of Appeal. Once the judge signs the final order, the appellate court may offer a different decision regarding the students’ education records.

“Kick a Jew Day” events have occurred in other middle and high schools across America as well. Last December, a similar incident unfolded at Vestal High School in Vestal, New York.

And what happened to the Local Law Enforcement Hate Crimes Prevention Act of 2009, that was adopted and signed into law as part of the 2010 Department of Defense Appropriations Bill (H.R. 3326)? That gives the Feds power to prosecute hate crimes where local authorities are remiss. But that clearly has not been done in this case. Incautious words by conservatives get great attention but actual physical attacks on Jews and East Asians in the schools are ignored.
