While certainky not everyone may agree with her opinion, she has a right to her beliefs, and free speech, and certainly should not be fired for this.

Yet liberal teachers are constantly posting the most vile propaganda and hatred. Happens all the time.

Exactly!!

We Texans best get on boards...school boards, that is.

Although, in my neck of the woods, the school board races sure seem rigged.

speaking of Texas it was Plyler v. Doe out of Tyler that gave us illegals mopping up a huge portion of our tax dollars to educate them.
This fateful ruling should have been where she cast her ire.

Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.

Whatever the politics or situation, it's stupid and scary for anyone to lose their job over petitioning the Government to do something lawful. I don't know if as a teacher she had any civil service, union, or tenure protections but to outright fire a public school teacher in a matter of days doesn't even seem possible.

The Fort Worthless ISD board just created serious liability for the ISD and for themselves.

The teacher should sue in federal court for violation of her First Amendment rights. She should sue the ISD and the members of the board jointly and severally. The board is a government agency and cannot fire someone for exercising a constitutional right in a public forum outside of work. She will win and should immediately place liens on the homes of each of the board members that day. She should be able to force the sale of those homes to pay the amounts the board members and the school system owe her.

If a government entity fires you for expressing an opinion, isn’t that censorship?
