DOWNINGTOWN >> He decided he’s done.

Downingtown STEM Academy administrator Zachary Ruff, who became involved in a heated exchange during an anti-abortion protest last month conducted by two teens outside the nationally ranked school, has resigned.

Ruff, dean of student life and academics, resigned to the Downingtown Area School Board members on Thursday afternoon, according to district officials.

So the big bad homo that felt threatened enough by teen GIRLS to scream obscenity and abuse in a lame attempt to assert his alpha status has finally run off while flapping his hands?
Aw, poor butthurt baby.
I like how the article appears to try and make him sound like a party we should be sympathetic towards and instead comes across as making him sound like a complete wimp.

Resign? I'm deeply disappointed they did not fire his "gay as the day is long and twice as sunny" butt. His personality is far more distasteful than his chosen sexual orientation. He is abominable.

As I understand it, it was an “exchange” in which he screamed obscenities at them, and they remained calm.

Have a feeling they told him to resign and to so to ASAP or else he would be fired in a major way. He did this to avoid another more trouble.

Once again, it demonstrates the paradoxical truth that “academics” are often the most rigid, bureaucratic, narrow-minded, and ideological people you will ever meet.

Where are all the Conservative men? Why aren’t we beating the holy-hell out of these a-holes when they try to bully people?

Because you’d go to jail for assault, and the news would play it up as “Conservative orc brute beats up holy knight of the TRUTH”.

Not really.
You let the leftist throw the first swing and get it on video.
Then press charges.

Good riddance. They should have fired his fat butt before he had a chance to resign, but I’m sure they gave him this option to remove legal issues and end the matter quickly.

The Downington Area school district should invite the protestors to speak at their school. It won’t happen...

My expectation is that this emotional teacher who claims he is gay is hitting on his male students...

Anyone else agree?

Sadly, by resigning he now has the option to find work elsewhere.
And he’ll likely continue his behavior there as he learned nothing.

Hmm.

What are the odds more “STEM” is going to negate the due penalties a culture has inflicted on itself for worship “STEM” in the first place?

Romans Chapter 1 indicates...

They’re not good.
