An Illinois teacher was fired for reprimanding a student for not standing during the Pledge of Allegiance, according to a report.

Vince Ziebarth, a driver’s ed teacher at Eisenhower High School in Blue Island, Ill., was axed March 16 for making “inappropriate comments” to 15-year-old Shemar Cooper, the Chicago Tribune reported.

This is outrageous, and the worst kind of "education". The student has learned that he can not only misbehave, but can get the teacher who insisted on proper behavior fired. How sick is this? Well, this is exactly what's been going on in the NYC school system since Bloomberg. The inmates most definitely are running the asylum. You cannot educate students whatsoever if they actually control the teacher's employment.

Our teachers could do about any thing they wanted to us except curse or do something immoral.

My teacher would have taken me out to the lockers to “talk” and push me into them as he gave me yellin’ to that I wouldn’t forget.

I totally agree, but as a retired teacher I saw this behavior more and more with each passing year. All you can do is set an example and pick your battles carefully as there are many parents who have a lawyer at the ready.

This POS student and his POS mom should be run out of this country. Instead, we have the schools being wrecked by garbage like this.

I could not be a teacher. Sadly,I know retired teachers who now say the same thing.

[Crucial]

I think the big problem is that the student’s name is Shemar. Likely he is black and likely he will never reach anything near his full potential because he is coddled by liberals and taught to dismiss America and things that truly matter.

Hell, I’m just totally shocked there is a class there that still recites the pledge at all.

[boycott]

Here is Shemar Cooper and his mother Kelly Porter-Turner. Why doesn't he have the same last name?

[Repeal 16-17]

The student has a First Amendment right to not stand for the Pledge (West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette, 319 U.S. 624 (1943)). Nonetheless, the kid is a disrespectful brat. The teacher should have been informed about Barnette, but should not have been fired.

The next time we hear about this kid will be to mourn his promising rap career that was cut short.

If we were winning.

What did they axed Vince?

[Scrambler Bob]

My daughter, teaching 1st grade near Watts, has been threatened by some of her students.

Not physically, but by various trumped up allegations.

She is about to quit, while she still has good standing and her teaching cert.

And she is one of the good ones.

Shemar? Worse name than Sue.... Good grief for afromerican “culture”
