"Thousands of students across the nation walked out of class Wednesday to protest gun violence. For three of them, their school responded — by paddling them, one mother says.
Jerusalem Greer, a mother of one of the students, wrote on Twitter on Wednesday afternoon that the students would be punished with "swats" by their school in central Arkansas.
Greer wrote that the kids, who were each 17 years old, were given two options: in-school suspension — or "swats."
"My kid and two other students walked out of their rural, very conservative, public school for 17 minutes today," Greer tweeted. "They were given two punishment options. They chose corporal punishment. This generation is not playing around. #walkout.”
