Milo Yiannopoulos planned to publicly name allegedly undocumented
students at UC Berkeley, endangering them. Debate over. Shutting
him down was legal and necessary and UC should have done it but
they were probably unaware of his intent. So locals and students
did it.
Here's a good example of what happens if teaching staff does
something stupid like that.
SAN JOSE — An Oak Grove High School PE teacher who allegedly told a student that he might be deported once Donald Trump is president has been placed on leave and is under investigation.
The teacher, who hasn’t been publicly identified, spoke to a student who was refusing to stand as the national anthem played last week on the campus, Superintendent Chris Funk said.
The teacher asked the student to stand. When the student refused, NBC Bay Area reported, the teacher said, “Good luck with being deported now that Donald Trump is president. … You guys had it better here than you will over there.”
Other students witnessed the incident. One told NBC Bay Area, “We just stayed seated, quietly, respecting everybody, not saying any rude comments whatsoever.” The student added, “I was actually shocked and angry because I never thought I’d hear this coming from a teacher.”
A student reported the incident to school officials, Funk said, and the East Side Union High School District intervened by placing the teacher on paid leave.
Funk said that the teacher has been in the district for some time. Pending the outcome of the district’s investigation, the teacher could receive a letter of reprimand or be suspended, he said.
In the aftermath of the election, the district has posted a letter on its homepage, saying that students deserve a secure environment to process the election results, and asking teachers to remain neutral, share information, listen to both sides of any issue and create a safe space in class and school for discussion.
“No question that some of our students who are undocumented are concerned about deportation and what’s going to happen to their families,” Funk said.

In the state of California anything that might be construed as inculcating hate in students can be banned. Even the color or brand of clothes allowed on school property (Red/Blue/Ben Davis et al) that might cause hate between various sociocultural factions. (Blue-Norteno family roots/Red-Sureno family roots)
Schools have pretty much free say over what is permissible within their facilities and with their equipment and ALWAYS have. In the 60s I can't even recount how many students were disciplined for publishing non-hateful anti-war content in school newspapers, by rote... That right has been consistently upheld by every court these cases appear in.
ANY potential disruptor to school business or safety (according to the local board of edu) is simply and effectively banned. And considering most neonazi organizations are considered hate groups, promoting it is a no-no on school property. Promoting racism is certainly a no-no, and whether the students Moron was going to "Document" are "Undocumented" according to his wrong opinion, they ARE attending UCB LEGALLY and have a right to be protected from his vilification on school grounds.
