LAS VEGAS (KTNV/CNN) – A mother says comments by her son’s teacher about President Donald Trump’s immigration policies made some middle school students cry.

Laura Llamas filed an incident report Monday after her son told her about his math teacher’s political remarks, which happened during a lesson.

"He was like, 'My teacher mentioned that she supported Trump's policies on deporting illegals because illegals are the ones that bring drugs into the communities,'" Llamas said.

Parents say the comments caused some kids to start crying, prompting the teacher to apologize.

“Everyone was just shocked because they didn’t expect their teacher to say something like that,” Llamas said.

Llamas hopes the teacher will be disciplined.

“We have to stop this. This can't happen in our district at all,” she said....

I wonder if a Mexican teacher in Mexico would be fired for saying something similar about their immigration procedures? And I wonder how much property tax Mrs. Llamas pays?

Wow.

This is like the FIRST TIME, I have heard of any teacher, in any school, in the entire country, who wasn’t a flaming liberal.

Anywhere.

We need to fire a couple million leftists, then a couple more million leftists. Then fire a couple thousand leftist principles. Then hire about a million teachers whose primary mission is to TEACH.

Then we can worry about this comment.

But not one moment, before that is all done.

Leftists have been running roughshod all over American education forever.

Time to turn that around. 180 degrees.

Now.

But if she were slamming whites just for being white the school would give her a medal.

You notice he’s a STEM subject teacher, not PE or homosexual studies or art?

You can’t shield them from the truth forever; unless they plan to be liberals.

No, kids. Of course illegals don’t bring drugs into the country. Why, it’s a magical tooth fairy riding unicorns that bring them in.

Talk about your special snowflakes in training.

“We have to stop this. This can’t happen in our district at all,” .......

A teacher states a fact and the neighborhood gets upset about the truth. The parents “fix” is to discipline the teacher and not address the drug problem. Granted the teacher (in a math class) should not have brought politics into the classroom. I would venture a guess that 75% plus in that class are illegals.

Let’s do the right thing and send this family back to Mexico where their child won’t have to be upset by what a teacher says.

What a perfectly worthless piece of journalism.
Complete hearsay. No comment from the teacher, just second hand from the parents of the crying students and unrelated support from another party who happens to be a Trump supporter.
Garbage.

Teachers should never discuss complex political issues with 4 yr old students. It makes them cry.

Also, do not forget to take the poll there as well:

How do you feel about President Donald Trump's immigration policies so far?

Good. I feel the country is getting safer and more secure. 66%

Bad. The president's policies have been too strict and are hurting the country. 27%

Indifferent. These policies won't change anything. 7%

One does not apologize for the truth. It would be interesting to see how many of those offended students have parents with criminal records and/or are illegals.
