As a Californian, let me put it like this.
I am not a zoomer, but I did have a cellphone in high school. A lot of the gang banger mexicans would harass me on a daily basis. My useless family did nothing and the even more useless school board did nothing. So one day I finally had enough and pulled out my phone and called the police. Every single one of them was searched, citations were issued, a couple violated their juvie stuff, and the school had a lot of egg in their face.
I was never bothered again but every member of the faculty knew be my name and hated the very sight of me. White people retaliating against Mexicans is exactly why they don’t want kids to have cell phones. But I’m sure the commie lectures being recorded is another thing. Speaking of that, I once got detention for criticism communism and saying there were no good things about communism or the Mexican government in a school paper.
