Flag-stomping teacher has no regrets, wants student punished
Fox News ^ | September 21, 2016 | Todd Starnes

The teacher who desecrated the American flag inside a North Carolina classroom told me he has no regrets and wants the student who photographed him to be punished.

Lee Francis, a first year history teacher at Massey Hill Classical High School in Fayetteville, has been placed on administrative leave while the school district investigates the incident.

The flag desecrating teacher is lawyered up and proud of his actions.

The patriotic student who took a picture and rescued the flag will probably be punished.

Picture at the link if someone wants to post it.

Did you think reeducation centers would look like reeducation centers?

As a retired teacher and administrator, I would fire him. I don’t know the back east but in Arizona I could pretty much let a first year teacher go pretty easy.

No contract for you!

It’s a micro-agression that offended some of the students. What if the teacher stomped on a Koran or a replica of the AIDS Quilt?

Blame the student for the ignorant teacher?! Not likely. Give him credit for fast thinking to film the unpatriotic action of the teacher. Fire the teacher!

WTF is wrong with these people?! You took photographs of me engaging in unprofessional behavior and I want you to get in trouble for it! I think we have people who have lost their reasoning compass....

Anyone who desecrates our Flag should be shot. No excuses.

Fire that SOB and place a personal note in his file that he no longer holds the capacity to teach impartially due to his bias and prejudicial against non-black students.

Why should these particular students be punished for desecrating their teacher?

““There were some laws broken as far as photos of me taken that violate the county’s policies – and issues that could be considered defamation of character,” he said.”

I knew a lawyer who used to say crap like that just to get a retainer.

Well, he is a negro, so he believes he has a free pass to do what he damn well pleases, and you be racissss if you object.

The kid took the pics did it for purely racissss motives, of course.

The thing is the teacher said he was proud of his actions so why should the student be punished?

The teacher is angry for being exposed......
the student should stand his ground. If actions
are taken against the student he has options too.

Picture at the link if someone wants to post it.

Maybe he was auditioning for an Obama look-a-like contest.

He said the student who snapped the photo of the flag desecration “broke the law.”

“I believe that child does need to be punished in some way – absolutely,” he said. “I can’t take a picture of them and in turn they cannot do the same of me.”

Pretty twisted deflection of the indefensible. More than just a look-a-like.

So, if there were no Pictures and the Student reported his Behavior to School Administration, would the Teacher admit he did it?

Why do I think he wouldn’t admit to it. It’s kind of a stained Blue Dress scenario.

The dude is a real POS that’s for sure.

I’m curious, don’t the Parents of Children exposed to this kind of Idiocy get involved? If my Kid came home with a story like this, I would be in the Principal’s Office the next morning looking for blood.
