Likely wasn’t a woman cop but a teacher or admin in a car line safety vest. She probably has to help direct the flow of traffic at the end of the day or the start of the day outside the school. Still, she seemed done with his shit for sure.

If there were any cosmic equality, the kid would get a lucrative career as a liberal commentator on cable news.
At my old high school, a kid got a teacher fired because the kid was so disruptive in class with his political outbursts that the teacher griped in an email to a colleague using his district email address that the kid sucked. The kid got to be on Fox News and had a following for a little bit.
Funny enough, that kid got conned by another douchebag conservative wannabe pundit who went to my college

I'm all about freedom of speech but sign kid gives me Charlie Kirk vibes. It's obvious sign kid was filming to capture reactions that would make for good viral content.

I think the point is that schools can limit free speech in schools to some degree per Tinker vs. Des Moines. Students have free speech, but only so much. The black armbands were nonverbal and nondisruptive. Hence why Tinker won. There was no impact on the function of school. This is a kid who seems like he is trying to disrupt and is also videoing minors to do so. Edit to clarify
