One student was expelled and three others were suspended after they began circulating the petition as an alleged joke.

A federal judge has determined that four high school freshmen in Kansas City, Missouri, must abide by their school's punishments after they began circulating a petition to bring back slavery.

U.S. District Judge Stephen R. Bough ruled that the students, one of whom was expelled and the three others suspended for 180 days, must accept their punishments. In his decision, the judge determined that, although the students are expected to receive irreparable harm to their reputations, their claims would not hold up efficiently in a higher court, KCUR reported.
