BREAKING NEWS - A public school student was just punished by her teacher for complaining about the teacher making his class watch Farenheit 911 in Attleboro, MA
Just heard on the Howie Carr show on WRKO
The father of that student just called to say that his daughters teacher brought in a DVD of F911 and told the kids that everything in it was true. He punished the callers child for complaining. The attorney father and Howie are going to follow this up with a State Rep and the Governor.
It is R rated!

That teacher ought to be out of a job - immediately. There's no excuse for this.
bttt
Tell ya what- if the teacher FORCES the class to watch FarenHYPE 911 and fire him...that would be fair:)
The NEA probably applauded the decision to fire a teacher for dipslaying a picture of W with the other Presidents but will go to the wall for the Michael Moore acolyte.
Yes, I agree. Fair and balance, present both sides, and boot the teacher out.
The school board needs to be involved in this - and fast...
Any more details on this so we can write to the friendly school board and show our appreciation?
School name?
Now there's a fine critically thinking product of some great & wonderful college ED Dept.....
And they are "teaching" your children.......
We are doomed.....
The DVD just came out today.
So, this teacher bought the DVD, took it to school, showed it to his class, the child told her dad, the dad complained to the school, and the teacher punished the girl for complaining...and this all happened TODAY?!?
I doubt it. This couldn't happen due to school system bureaucratic inertia.
The guy that called in was probably a whack job, wait for proof folks.
Man, I am in the wrong business. I could have made DVDs and webcasts to help parents undo the damage of a public school education and/or supplement home schooling.
Too bad I am too old to start this up.
Whoooo Hooooo! The teacher picked on a kid with a lawyer for a father .. not good for the teacher.
Did it just come out today where you live or everywhere? It is possible that the teacher A: lives somewhere where it came out earlier, or B:She somehow got a hold of it with her connections.
Hard to imagine smarminess meters for Kerry and JabbatheMoore.
Today is the nationwide release date.
I suppose he could have ordeered it from Amazon and it came in the mail yesterday. This all seems like it happened pretty fast, though, don't you think?
Public Skewls are a cesspool of liberalism!
It does appear to be a bit of a stretch, but you never know. An interesting story anyway, and it doesn't sound all that unbelievable. It is almost inevitable that something like it will happen.
It's easy if you try.........
That's 'pistil and stamen'.
Check your profile page too Pikachu. Got a spelling error there as well.
