Kids I care about have gone to these things. Grown adults are showing up to harass - “roll coal” in the kids faces, throw things from cars.

Mustang public schools suspended all children who walked out, with support of the governor of Oklahoma.

People almost seemed to get a hard on at the idea of hurting these children in Facebook comments.

They totally just only did it to the students who were fighting guys!

One parent is furious that her son had to go to the hospital because of this.

Monique Goudau’s 12-year-old son, Keenan Pettis, is in the sixth grade at Will Rogers. She says he was outside protesting against ICE with his classmates when a fight broke out between students near the football field.

Keenan says he wasn’t part of the fight, so he and other students went back into the school to keep protesting. That’s when he says campus police pepper-sprayed him.

“I don’t really remember it. I was just, it was.... it was just hurting, I don’t know,” said Keenan.

We can definitely believe law enforcement in Tulsa!
