On 11-10-16 it came to our attention that multiple students of the Commerce City School District including Savannah Allen had posted this hateful picture with the caption "Raise he'll and kill n*gger babies." Since this post has been made many calls have been made the Commerce City High School. Our complaints have been met with being forwarded to voicemail or being told that "She said she didn't post it, but her friends did." This response is not acceptable. Racism is a systematic problem along with a familial problem. On the front of the families we cannot make a difference, however in the system we can. This is why we are calling for the expulsion of all students involved in this post. The lack of punishment thus far shows that Commerce City Schools doesn't see this as an issue. It shows that they are willing to stand behind a racist group of children instead of heeding the calls of people that want to fight for equality and correction. Please stand by us by signing this petition to have these students permanently removed Commerce City Schools in order to show these actions are not acceptable.

This sickens me! I have a biracial child and I will stand behind him and his father before myself any day! Please take these kids out of school! I don't care who posted it. Let me see you in public! When you spoke on this you spoke on my child!
It is actually the school's job to address this, Ken. It's in their handbook that students are prohibited from making other students feel unsafe, including acts of cyber bullying. This was very obviously an act of cyber bullying and overt racism.
As a graduate of CHS, I find this totally unacceptable. School should be a place everyone feels safe. By no action being taken, the trust students feel for the administration will be gone and will not return. Show students that actions have consequences
Absolutely DISGUSTING!!! How dare you excuse racism. She should be expelled regardless of whatever thin excuse she comes up with. You are responsible and accountable for your own social media presence. DISGUSTING!!!
Deplorable. This sort of behaviour cannot go unpunished. I personally was punished more severely for doing less at this institution, which makes me question whether or not Commerce High School is racist themselves.
Please take care of this! ALL of your students deserve to be in a SAFE envoronment, and this is simply not safe!
EXPELL THEM NOW !

If there's no concequence for this and ALL parties of the account are not being held accountable for this PUBLIC TERRORISTIC THREAT then that blantantly shows this community that the school is in agreement with the foul statement.
