Wake teacher suspended after Facebook comments
The Raleigh News & Observer ^ | 02/15/2010 | Raleigh News & Observer

Posted on 02/15/2010 11:42:19 AM PST by crymeariver

Melissa Hussain, an eighth-grade teacher at West Lake Middle School in Apex, wrote on her Facebook page that it was a “hate crime” that students left a Bible on her desk and how she “was able to shame her kids” over the incident. Her Facebook page included comments from friends saying that the parents of Hussain’s students were “bigoted, stupid and uncaring.”

In any other institution besides government schools, she would have been fired. Hopefully, they’ll can her, but her likes are widespread in the school systems.

“... following complaints about disparaging comments she made about her class, Christianity and Southern culture on her Facebook page.”

Never quite understood why some people choose to live in the South then think it’s fashionable to bash it. If you don’t like it, do us all a favor and leave.

Teacher aside, where was the principal in all this?

I mean what was the intent of this course, in the first place?

And why in God’s name did he allow her to teach a course about Christianity if she was so hostile toward it?

Hussain has been suspended with pay ... he said he couldn’t discuss the reason for the suspension because of employee confidentiality rules.
Suspended with pay = vacation.
Even though she works in a public school, even the taxpayers, aren't allowed to know why she was suspended.
BTW, her attitude will never change - she's an agent for the "Religion of Peace."

Here is one of her poems:

Political Haikus

October 4, 2009 in Poetry | Tags: haiku, Iraq, War on Terror | Leave a comment

Political Haikus

Politics happened
to slip into this haiku
dirtied your form, no?

World Trade Towers fell
two wounds from terrorism
made in the U.S.

No terrorism
like U.S. terrorism:
foreign policy.

Bin Laden, Saddam,
terrorists, communists—just
distractions for oil.

Secret brotherhood:
Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein,
George Bush, Colin Powell.

No need to elect
presidential candidate
George pays to be boss.

Texas grows cacti
and presidents who think they
own the whole damn world.

Preschool rules apply:
White House needs to learn to share
don’t steal others’ toys.

Liberty for some.
Justice for capitalists.
Freedom from conscience.

The Department of
Homeland Security: Here
Lies Justice, Freedom.

Advice for Third World:
lazy, dumb barbarians,
be greedy like us.

First World manual:
steal from the poor, help the rich.
Robin Hood was wrong.

World Bank, W.T.O.:
weapons of mass destruction,
should be dismantled.

We know Iraq has
weapons of mass destruction—
we have the receipts.

I.M.F. stands for
Ivy league Men Fucking globe;
profits before life.

Don’t you feel so safe?
Homeland Security is
watching you right now.

Best to turn off brain
when turning on C.N.N.
a load of bull shit.

Patriot sounds like
Idiot, sounds like Zealot,
sounds like a Robot.

Patriotism:
We killed of humanity
but the flag’s still there!

Sweatshops in China
making flags on overtime
for U.S. ego.

Corruption: U.S.,
I.M.F., F.B.I., and
World Bank, W.T.O.

History, take two:
New Rome looks like the last one.
Kill, plunder. Next: fall.
