The unidentified teacher was suspended with pay after making the comment on February 24 as outraged parents fumed to the Merrillville School Board.
'This is what he thinks about our kids,' one parent said at the Tuesday board meeting. 'I'm not getting over this... now we see this coming from the president also.'
Parents in the school district angrily voiced their complaints at the board meeting, as the Gary branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has launched an investigation, the Chicago Tribune reported.

“I’m not getting over this”
Please allow me to translate:
“I just found a winning lottery ticket because I’m gonna sue”
Maybe you should have raised your kid better instead of raising a pongid.
when we would go to the zoo or the circus, my dad would stare lovingly at the monkey cages. when my dad was in the Navy in Japan, they had a good luck monkey chained to a store and so my dad and his friends got drunk when he was like 19 and they let the monkey go and they were running the monkey around in the streets on his little chain, and so the Japanese people wanted to put them in jail, but then the.MP’s came and apologized and took my dad and his friends back to the ship and they didn’t do anything. My dad always loved that story.
most of my dad’s stories began with the phrase,” and then I got drunk and…”

A loud fight erupts on an airplane between a mother holding a baby and the passenger sitting next to her. The stewardess tries to calm the situation. How about I bring you two free drinks. Would that make you happy? The two quiet down and say yes. The stewardess relieved that she defused the situation says, I’ll even bring a banana for your monkey.
This is nothing new. Howard Cossel was fired back in 1983 for the very same crap.
Awwww!!!!
I can just fully imagine my parents, broke, early 20’s with 2 toddler girls 11 months apart, sighing and wishing they had monkeys instead!!!!
That's nothing new. I will always remember the moment when I was in the 5th grade when a large black girl, a classmate obviously older than the other 5th graders, tried to stab an elderly white female teacher with a pencil. I can still easily replay that moment in my mind.
Sometimes real education doesn't come from books.
Don’t forget the white assistant to the mayor of Washington DC that lost his job for using the word “niggardly”.

Remember the woman in Pa (I think it was, or NY?) who complained because the city busses had ‘Ziggin’ Zaggin’ written on them and she saw it backwards in her rearview mirror and claimed it was RACIST? And, yes, the city took a knee.

That was on a train and Flip Wilson told it first on his show.
My memory isn’t that good.
Had to look pongid up, love it.

“ oh, by the way, the superintendent said that they take things like this very seriously. I wish they would take educating their students seriously”
I have seen or encountered many that seem to put color over all. They are dead serious about it.
A really sweet girl I graduated with got a suspension for telling a girl that she didn’t want to dress like a “hoochie mama”. She ended up with taxpayer funded paid vacation I suppose. But there’s a price to pay for actually caring.
Monkey in a zoo are more behaved than “students” in ChiCongo. /spit
“when I was a kid, my dad really wanted a baby monkey but it was incredibly expensive and you had to have a license so he never did it”
I remembers seeing as a child advertisements in the back of comic books for spider monkeys. I believe you could order them for $59, which I obviously didn’t have. No matter how much I begged my parents, no dice. I think I had images of training it to do my chores.
My Grandma used to fuss at us during childhood, saying we were ‘acting like a bunch of Wild Indians!’.
We thought it was funny, and yes, it was.
T’was funny b/c it was true.
Side note: We used to watch “F’ Troop and liked that show.
