Their fuck up puts the burden on them to repair the damage as quickly as possible.

But if school is not in session, they can't correct their "fuck up" until it's back in session. Hell, the father admitted the facebook post is poorly timed. Just a "fucked up" situation. There's certainly a fine line. Don't do anything, kid brings a gun to school, shoots up people. Do something, and it's an overreaction. In hindsight, it is a total overreaction, but again, if they're not in school, they can't correct it.
