Grand Prairie counselor fired after comment on WFAA's Facebook page

GRAND PRAIRIE -- Karon Wright, a middle school counselor in Grand Prairie ISD, has been "immediately relieved of all duties," the district said, after an offensive remark written from her Facebook account on WFAA-TV's Facebook page in regards to the explosion in West, Texas.

"It's amazing how the 'whites' get angry when Obama speaks," the comment read. "Oh well....its most of the whites who is getting blown away. So they will soon be wiped from the earth. Lol"

Wright denies she wrote the comment, and said her account was hacked.

The district said in a statement they found the statement to be "highly offensive, insensitive to the tragedy happening to our friends and neighbors in West, and disrespectful to the very human bond that we share with the people of West, especially those who have lost their loved ones."

The comment has since been deleted, but a viewer sent us a screengrab from their phone.

I wonder what the average percentage of people’s lives that are lived online today.

Wonder what it will be in 10 years... 50.

They’ll wait a few weeks for the storm to blow over and hire her back.

But,but ,but she’s Black so it can’t be offensive or racist. It’s just affirmative action.

She did get fired. Here is the statement from the school district.....

GPISD Announcements (Grand Prairie ISD) A statement posted on WFAA’s Facebook page purportedly by an employee of this District has been brought to our attention. We find this statement to be highly offensive, insensitive to the tragedy happening to our friends and neighbors in West, and disrespectful to the very human bond that we share with the people of West, especially those who have lost their loved ones. The employee whose account appears to be responsible for the post was immediately relieved of all duties. Our thoughts and prayers are with the West community.

She said her account was hacked. It should be very easy to determine that if Facebook would reveal all posts of hers, plus timestamps of password changes. what was posted just before and just after? Or, can she tell us who she handed her phone to, to make the post?

When someone claims their account was "hacked" there will be plenty of evidence that is was/was not and can be cleared up either way.

Facebook keeps a log of the computers and IP addresses used to log in. It should be easy for her to prove, IF true.

I bet we’ll be waiting a long time.

Oh, that's too difficult for "the folks," as O'Reilly calls us. We're all too dumb to figure out things like that.

But everyone understands "hacked," which is one of those racist code words for White Voodoo.

Racism is evil no matter what the skin color is of the monster who practices it. She has no business counseling kids. Dr. King must be rolling in his grave.
