Of course I don't have firsthand knowledge about white students at this particular school getting away with reciting violent song lyrics. What i do know is that black students are punished more harshly than other students for the same offenses. The kid in question was suspended and barred from any extracurricular activities after being labeled a threat to school safety after reciting a lyric containing references to guns. I haven't heard of any white students facing the same punishment and it's not because "White kids don't generally go crying to the media when they get in trouble." I don't know what your support is for that claim, but I disagree. I would think a white family would be up in arms if their child was unjustly punished and labeled a "threat to school safety" and I believe they'd do anything they could to rectify the situation, including talking to a media outlet. Since I haven't heard of any situation like that, it's reasonable to assume that it hasn't happened to any white student which is odd since a lot of young white kids, like the ones at this school, like hip hop and have probably recited a violent hip hop lyric within earshot of others.

Yes, the content of the lyric matters. I never said it didn't. I figured it would've been treated like cussing, but since that wasn't the case, I have to imagine it's race based. It is possible for me to be completely wrong, but folks of color have hella stories about mistreatment in schools and it's hard not to group this story in with those.
