High school teacher tells student he can be arrested for criticizing Obama

Joe Newby Spokane Conservative Examiner

After criticizing Mitt Romney, a North Carolina high school teacher yelled at a student for asking a question about Barack Obama, telling him that he could be arrested for criticizing Barack Obama.

Sarah Campbell wrote at the Salisbury Post Saturday that the heated exchange began "with a classroom conversation about a recent news story detailing Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney allegedly bullying a classmate in prep school. It turns into a heated, sometimes confrontational debate."

“Didn’t Obama bully someone though,” one student asked, referring to an incident in Obama's memoir, “Dreams from My Father,” in which Obama admitted pushing a girl when other students called him her boyfriend.

“Stop, no, because there is no comparison,” the teacher said.

According to the teacher, Romney is “running for president," and therefore does not deserve the same respect as Obama, who "is the president.”

“Listen, let me tell you something, you will not disrespect the president of the United States in this classroom,” she said.

She went on to tell the student that he "will not" say what he wants about Obama, and asserted that it was a crime to "slander" the President. The student responded by recalling that many spoke ill of George W. Bush while he was President, and such arrests would violate the Constitutional right to free speech.

I’m glad we don’t have ignorant teachers like that in NJ! /s/

"See right here. The law says that it is a crime to criticize ME."

...or search for any documents pertaining to my background.

[beaversmom]

Good idea...then I would promptly pull him out of such a system that would have a “teacher” like her in it.

I guess Rush better not show up for work today? I think he might needs to quickly leave the country where there are no extradition treaties?

Sounds like some parents are doing the job that Public Schools won't do - filling their kids' heads with a bit of truth and common sense. Libs HATE when that happens...

obvious that the kids in her class know that she is a joke

Kids' BS detectors are generally a whole lot sharper than adults. Particularly HS kids.

And, being 16 means that your not as fettered by political correctness, either.

Thanks KeyLargo. Obama’s a lying, foreign-born, Muzzie asshole. How do you like that, teach’?

“Listen, let me tell you something, you will not disrespect the president of the United States in this classroom,” she said.

"DON'T YOU BLASPHEME IN HERE!"

[MrB]

“Listen, let me tell you something, you will not disrespect the president of the United States in this classroom,” she said.

So, what did you have to say in your classroom while Bush was president?

the teacher don’t know about free speech

[yldstrk]

Some loser put out a whole movie about Geo Bush’s assassination during his administration

[MomwithHope]

That audio was unbelievable. How can any learning take place in such an undisciplined environment? It did not sound like a class at all. No one showing anyone else courtesy to speak, just a free for all. That teacher is so ignorant. She probably took part in all the Bush hating rhetoric when he was president. But NOW we can’t say anything about Obama that she constues to be disrespectful. Plus trying to spark fear in any dissent with arrest threats. The parents of those kids should raise a stink. And how long will it be before cell phones are banned from classrooms? We might as well be living in Venezuela or Cuba.

...you will not disrespect the president of the United States in this classroom,” she said....

Disrespect the office? No. Disrespect the {expletive} occupying it right now? H*ll yes! I have absolutely zero respect for hussein. I choose to disrespect him at every opportunity.

She went on to tell the student that he "will not" say what he wants about Obama, and asserted that it was a crime to "slander" the President.

So much for free speech. ;-/ While slander is a crime, there is a burden of proof that the someone is making false accusations about the person being slandered. Since hussein himself admits to the incident in a published work, that hardly qualifies as false. Well, then again, given hussein's rather loose association with the truth. (mostly in avoiding it) ... if hussein said it, then it probably didn't happen.

That poor twit is completely out of control of her class. They are much smarter than she is, and they're running rings around her and laughing at her. If there is indoctrination going on here, it is to convince kids that Obama is the candidate of helpless fools.

I don't like the talking out of turn and the challenging attitude toward the teacher. Then again, she broke that covenant by showing disrespect to the students by trying to teach her opinion instead of the subject. And unfortunately, it sounds as if she's so dumb, she wouldn't know the difference.

“Apparently the entire msm along with most of the republican party agrees. What else explains their inability to even timidly go now where they once boldly and routinely went against “Dubya”?”

Savage: Romney following McCain’s losing strategy

GOP’s 2008 nominee was unwilling to confront Obama on character

Published: 3 days ago

The political gurus who advised Mitt Romney to condemn a plan by a “super PAC” to use Barack Obama’s influential relationship with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright against him in the 2012 campaign will lead the presumed Republican nominee to the same fate as John McCain four years ago, said talk-radio host Michael Savage.

“Romney’s finished,”

Communist Progression Ping.............

The father of the student wrote:

Timothy Rogers · Salisbury, North Carolina I'm the father of this student. My son and two other students in this class have been attacked daily from this teacher, and the rest of the class, for their conservative political views since the beginning of this semester. I told him to stay out of the political conversations, but she said that if he didn't participate he would receive a bad grade. This teacher is politically ignorant! I teach my sons to respect other people’s political opinion, but she has no right shoving her opinions down his throat! Since this day, I have had to remove him from North Rowan High School and am going to enroll him at RCCC to finish his education. I am outraged that she can conduct herself in such an unprofessional manner and receive no disciplinary action. THIS IS NOT OVER! I will attempt to contact Rush Limbaugh this week.

Communists have no fear. They are indoctrinating our children in schools, nothing new. What's new is that their threats to advance their REEDUCATION agenda are out in the open! They know that the Communist Administration will protect them!

The DoR (Department of REEDUCATION) has to go, teacher's union and all unions have to go. They can't be allowed to launder our tax money to reelect the Communists and their 0Marx in the BathHouse who'll turn into an 0Stalin this summer.
