Get their names & photos, put them on a list and never hire these people ever.
People, especially young people who are still learning what it means to be a person living in a society, deserve a second chance, and sometimes a third. This whole thing is disgusting, and as the grandchild of holocaust survivors I really struggle to not let these displays of bigotry completely ruin me, but your idea is also pretty upsetting.
People can and do change their beliefs, especially at the age these offenders are. I thought some pretty nasty things in high school that make me look back in shame. But I’m not that person anymore. I grew up, like most humans do. These students deserve to be punished, but that punishment needs to be serious education about why what they did was so awful. Putting them on a blacklist doesn’t help anyone, but it would help their hatred fester.
We could deport them they way they have decided to "deport" all the brown people they are bigoted against. I have no sympathy for these racist freaks. They deserve all the public shaming we can give them. Educating bigots is fruitless 90% of the time. These people hate "woke" but can't even tell you what "woke" is. And they designated Antifa as a "terrorist" organization, that they can't even tell you who heads it, where it's located, or what they have done to earn the designation of "terrorist". And yet these nazis kidnap people off the streets of America. Who are the terrorists? Some people will change when they grow up. But the deep seated hatred & bigotry many display is something most of them will not "grow" out of. Racism is an illness, a cult, and one of the stupidest things Humans participate in.
