Two Carrollton High School seniors were expelled Friday and won’t be allowed to graduate after a racist video they posted online went viral.

In a statement, Carrollton City Schools Superintendent Mark Albertus said the students’ behavior was unacceptable and “not representative of the district’s respect for all people.”

“The racist behavior observed in the video easily violates this standard,” he said. “They are no longer students at Carrollton High School.”

The video, initially posted to the social media platform TikTok on Thursday, went viral after showing the two teenagers using the n-word and making disparaging remarks about black people.

1. Nice. Some kids are getting pretty smart with some of their crap. These two managed to get...

thrown out of school (and not graduate too) all before they are 18 years old!!

Sarcasm...pretty pathetic if you ask me. I wonder what role models these kids had? Obviously not very good ones.

3. Role models? Probably Trump, Stephen Miller, Bill Barr ...........

4. And the internet never goes away; unlike their job prospects

2. It's hypocritical not to apply racism standards to all people...

5. PI wonder how long it will take them to realize just what happpened to them? Righr now,

they're probably thinking "that punishment wasn't bad. Hell, we were done with school anyway."
