NC Teacher Screams at Student: It’s Criminal to Criticize Obama


http://www.breitbart.com/Big-Government/2012/05/20/NC-teacher-screams-student-Obama


”One student says, “Didn’t Obama bully someone though?” The teacher says: “Not to my knowledge.” The student then cites the fact that Obama, in Dreams from My Father, admits to shoving a little girl. “Stop, no, because there is no comparison,” screams the teacher. Romney is “running for president. Obama is the president.”

The student responds that both are “just men.”

The teacher yells -- literally yells -- that Obama is “due the respect that every other president is due … Listen,” she continues, “let me tell you something, you will not disrespect the president of the United States in this classroom.” She yells over the student repeatedly, and yells at him that it's disrespect for him to even debate about Romney and Obama.

The student says that he can say what he wants.

“Not about him, you won’t,” says the teacher.

The teacher : “Do you realize that people were arrested for saying things bad about Bush? Do you realize you are not supposed to slander the president ?”

The student says that it would violate First Amendment rights to jail someone for such sentiments. “You would have to say some pretty f’d up crap about him to be arrested,” says the student. “They cannot take away your right to have your opinion … They can’t take that away unless you threaten the president.”

Clearly, the student should be teaching the class, and the teacher should be reading the Constitution more often.”


RRD:”Now Robert don't make too much of this,these crackpots crop up & they're suspended or fired....”

No she has not been fired,or suspended,the school board says this is ”a learning experience”.(fn1)

Indeed it is;though not quite in the way that the school means.


The school--North Rowan High School in Spencer North Carolina--needs to be sued.Students sue over being told that they must say the pledge,they sue over prayer,they sue over Creationism,they should sue over this.

And the School System Administration?It should be wiped out at the ballot box(If at all possible.I don't know the political makeup of Spencer North Carolina,it may be liberal)
But suppose they're Republicans?
RINOS you mean?
Replace them with people with some grasp of the Constitution of the United States.


And if there are any Progressives reading this and brushing it off,reread the exchange and replace the words Obama with Bush and Romney with Kerry and ask yourself whether or not you would respond by brushing off such behavior by a Republican teacher.


I would respond the same way--on principle--to both;would you?

(Note:my purpose in posting the photo is not to equate Obama with the murderous thugs of 1984,or to imply that he was behind this,but to illustrate the Orwellian character of the teacher's worldview)

Video stirs debate on teacher's actions in North class Salisbury, NC - Salisbury Post

http://www.salisburypost.com/News/051912-North-teacher-on-video-qcd

”After reviewing a video in which a North Rowan High School teacher tells a student he can be arrested for speaking ill of President Barack Obama, the Rowan -Salisbury School System said it can be a learning experience.”

”Although two students provided the name of the teacher, the Post is not publishing it because officials within the school system would not confirm her identity and she could not be reached for comment”
