The St. Paul Public Schools superintendent apologized Tuesday for a Twitter comment on the Ferguson, Mo. shooting that sparked a flurry of reaction, most of it negative. Authorities announced Monday that a grand jury decided against indicting white police officer Darren Wilson for fatally shooting Michael Brown, an unarmed 18-year-old black man. Soon after the announcement, Superintendent Valeria Silva tweeted, "No indictment for officer Wilson! Very sad day in America. How do I explain this to my black students?" Silva later deleted the tweet and clarified her intent. But her remark offended many, including some who agreed with the grand jury's determination and others who were angered by it.

I’m not sure some 2nd amendment zealots would agree with your never
How do I explain this to my black students?”
Don’t bring a stolen Swisher Sweet to a gun fight also stay on the fricken sidewalk, or is that too eurocentric for you.
Yes to the first part, doubtful on the second.
“How do I explain this to my black students?”
Explain that it can sometimes be dangerous to brutally attack an armed police officer. When he points a gun at you and tells you to stop, don’t charge him.
Explain to them to obey the law, and they won’t get killed.
It’s not rocket science.
I’ll say it again - you’ll never meet anyone as reactionary, idealogical, and narrow minded as an “academic.”
:-))
“How do I explain this to my black students?”
Maybe tell them about Samuel Colt and his invention that keeps larger stronger people from being able to attack smaller weaker ones with impunity.
actually, they are a thousand times more likely to be killed by a black gang banger drive by than by a cop
Yep, another “Inconvenient Truth.”
Let’s not insult law-abiding, patriotic, kind-to-their-mother morons by associating them with a demonicrat piece of liberal excrement like St. Paul Public Schools Superintendent Valeria Silva.
Explain how Wilson is a government agent, unlike George Zimmerman.
“People say believe half of what you see, son, and none of what you hear.”
It is not her job to explain this to her students. it is her job to make sure they learn three R’s, science, and history.
Publik Skools....’effing race card hustler who doesn’t give a damn about the facts. Just emotion—that’s all they’ve got.
What does that say about people who cannot contain or control their emotions?
If she can’t explain it, she shouldn’t be teaching.
Parents and others disagree with her tweet, and support the grand jury action?? They must be racists!! (sarc.)
Minnesota, rapidly becoming the Marxist, Jihadist, Gringo-hating center of northern America.
Somali-jihadists, Radical Imans, Marxists in the school system and Secy of State, and now an apparent white-hating Hispanic school teacher.
Surprise, surprise! A Trifecta of hate and subversion.
We have a winner, and Al Franken too.
