American student sues school district for failure to stop bullying
17 year-old Darnell 'Dynasty' Young, who was expelled in May for firing a stun gun at school to scare off bullies, claims school administrators did nothing to stop the 'relentless, severe harrasment'
Darnell 'Dynasty' Young and his mother filed a suit Friday against Indianapolis Public Schools for failure to address homophobic bullying.
Young was expelled from Arsenal Technical High School in May for firing a stun gun to school when confronted by a group of students who taunted him for being gay.
His mother, Chelisa Grimes, gave him the stun gun for protection after months of bullying.
Young said in a statement: 'The harassment and abuse I went through at Tech was horrible. I want to make sure that no other student in the Indianapolis Public Schools ever has to go through that.
'I hope this lawsuit will get IPS to change the way it deals with kids who are being harassed. Schools should protect students like me instead of telling them to change who they are.'
The Indianapolis Star reports that the family's attorneys say the district discriminated against Young because IPS not only failed to address numerous complaints from Young about the bullying, but administrators blamed Young's effeminate demeanor and dress.
According to the suit, the school district violated Young's First Amendment right to freedom of expression by suggesting he stop wearing his mother's purses and jewelry to school.
The suit claims that fellow students on several occasions threw glass bottles and rocks at Young, spat at him and used homophobic slurs.
Defendants named in the suit are Tech principal Larry Yarell, Assistant Principal Debra Barloew, IPS Superintendent Eugene White, the district and the school board.
Young and Grimes are seeking unspecified damages. IPS spokesman John Althardt said the district's attorneys would 'review the information and we will respond accordingly'.

The Young family should be suing the school administrators personally, not the district. The principal is the one who grossly failed to do his / her job, not the district. If a few homophobic administrators were forced to pay for their harmful actions, that would get the attention of these people.
I noticed in another article that a former Assistant Attorney General in Michigan was held personally liable for a harassing / defaming web site.
Why are incompetent school administrators let off the hook?
This is what happens when your school district is run by extreme right wing Republican haters who are both racist and anti-gay.
They are in fact Ku Klux Klan: people who believe that the white race is the master race and should be in control of every aspect of American life.
These individuals claim to be Christians but nothing could be further from the truth.
The day is coming when these people will be systematically annihilated because white people are in the minority worldwide. Other nations and their people have tolerated this kind of hatred and oppression from these same evil racists for hundreds of years, but that is soon to end.
It will begin in economic ways. The US is gradually going to be cut off, economically, from the rest of the world. The only thing that has saved us so far is that we have one of the greatest presidents in American history: Barack Obama.
Intelligent and well-educated people all over the world have the highest respect for our President. The only ones who don't are these KKK, like the ones who turned a blind eye to the way you were being abused in school. Sue them for several million in damages; you deserve it.
I am extremely proud of you for standing up to these totally evil people.
michaelwb, thank you, thank you, thank you! After a 12 month stint teaching English in the great Nations of Brazil and Paraguay, I have experienced firsthand the gnawing questions posed by the South American people about what the hell is going on in the USA!?! Simply put, the TeaParty (TPods) have hijacked the Republican Party (or wh scared at was left of it,,, they were dying on the vine for years!) and turned it into a Neo-Nazi right wing extremist party, who, like Hitler, will stop at nothing to wound and kill freedom and liberty as we know it. They will not win! Their ranting and raving proves it! They are running scared in true 'wrong-way-Corrigan' style. Better to pity them, pray for them... and then legally squash them like the cockroaches they are.
