In a supposedly progressive city, words are violence but an actual massacre is justified

“How is raping girls freedom fighting?” I asked. What I thought was a simple question turned into multiple people, including the coach, continuing to justify the rape of Israeli girls. It seemed that they were astonished that I would even try to say that the rape of these innocent girls is wrong.

The respone to it of her coach and classmates sounds sickening.

I hope her article gets LOTS of attention from school administrators.
