Officials at the Florida school where 17 students were gunned down during a mass shooting on Valentine's Day are investigating allegations a teacher compared pro-Second Amendment student Kyle Kashuv to "Hitler" and called him "dangerous."
The comments were allegedly made by Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School American history teacher Gregory Pittman, an outspoken gun control advocate. Pittman's reported remarks came after photos posted to social media showed Kashuv visiting a gun range with his father.
“School leaders take all matters involving students and staff seriously,” Broward County Public Schools spokeswoman Nadine Drew told Fox News. “They are aware of the allegations and are looking into the matter.”
Kashuv, a junior, posted a photo and video from his first time shooting a gun with his father, a veteran of the Israel Defense Forces, on Twitter last Friday. He told Fox News host Tucker Carlson that photo led to an interrogation from a school official and a report from the Broward County Sheriff’s Office, which found the tweets to be “non-threatening.”
Pittman and Kashuv went back and forth on Twitter, where the teacher said it was “bad” for Kashuv to hold a gun and said Kashuv was just doing it to get “attention.” During a class discussion days later, Pittman allegedly began disparaging Kashuv, who was not present.
A junior who witnessed the rant told Fox News that Pittman “was a bit angry” and launched into a tirade Wednesday during the last 10 minutes of class after one student brought up the Twitter exchange.
“It was basically a hate fest,” the student said. “They were just saying means things about Kyle. He talked about how he was right, and how Kyle was making an ass of himself.

But but but, wasnt Hitler the one who took away guns? LOLOLO
Minor+hostile work environment = $$$ for student. Where are the lawyers?
Well, that’s end of that teachers career as she’ll be fired.
/sarc
Yes because isolating and BULLYING is fine, it’s the Gus that are the problem...right?
Actually Ma’am, Hitler was a gun grabber. Y’know, just like you.
A lot of what I learned about modern liberalism, I learned from teachers’ unions.
Hitler wrote the book on gun control.
...calling Pro2nd student Kyle Kashuv ‘Hitler’ in class
It would have been funny if the student had responded back,
“you are projecting.”
‘Cause it would have been awkward to have called him Mao, Pol Pot or Stalin (other notorious advocates for wholesale civilian disarmament along with Hitler).
The Left are Godwin’s Stepchildren
“But but but, wasnt Hitler the one who took away guns?”
The Weimar Republic did that.
what do we expect of the easiest degree to obtain in college, other than perhaps sociology?
This useless so-called teacher is both an asshat and a coward, making disparaging remarks about the young man when he was not even there to defend himself.
Apparently, “outspoken gun control advocate” is now code for “coward who can’t make a logical argument so he resorts to abusing his position of power over others who are not even present”.
Exactly. Apparently this so called “teacher” never took any history classes in high school and “college”. He’s clueless.
Oh look. A high school history teacher who doesn’t know his history.
And they wonder why our schools are a disaster.
It would have been, except the student being attacked was not even present during the attack. This alleged teacher is lower than low.
“But but but, wasnt Hitler the one who took away guns? LOLOLO”
Being that his father is former IDF I’d wager that he is Jewish. Would it be hate speech to call the young Jew Hitler?
...Kashuv, a junior, posted a photo and video from his first time shooting a gun with his father, a veteran of the Israel Defense Forces...
Leave it to a lunatic liberal to call the son of an Israeli Defense Forces veteran, “Hitler.”
