  • these people were a bunch of idiots! i was there they looked like retards. none of them knew what was being protested, some of them said uniforms, others said war. i think they should have been expelled all those people were a bunch of pot heads and the only reason they were there was because they didn't want to go to class. And it was a poor choice of a time to protest and it was completely unorganized, there are better ways to organize a protest then to randomly sit down during a lunch hours.

  • protest are always awkward, many people w/ different motivations trying to be heard and enact change. This is what a democracy looks like. I applaud the effort.

  • I think this whole thing the student at morton did last year was funny my brother was one of the kid that they did not show ut he helped to start the sit in i just wish the morton west student body should have done something on the annniversay of this event but we did nothing but a regular school day

  • you're right--the students who came together at Morton to protest know how important activism is. But it is never to late. Your comment here helps remind people that Protesting injustices keeps democracy alive. Thank You.

  • I agree. to comment on their superficial appearance and assumptions about their lifestyles misses the entire point of participatory democracy completely.

  • it's proof we have a say so in the world.. I'm the one talking at the beginning.

  • Lawl at comments of assumptions

    Only the people who were fighting back to get back into school know the truth. So go on, make rebuttals of witnesses who didn't actually fight the school politically to get back into school. Morton West was defeated.

  • lol i herd it was to protest uniforms not war this hole war thing was just to stop them from getting expeled

  • Maybe this will help for the future. There is a time and a place for everything. this happened at school, a place where you are to learn. NOT PROTEST!!!! WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!!! remember 9-11!!!!! TRUE AMERICANS WILL NEVER FORGET!!!!!!!

  • I went to Morton West & East from 1957 to 1961. Then I graduated from Morton Junior College in 1963. I was drafted into Vietnam and did not complain, I spent 2 years there.
