Ramming said Burns told her she can't make those kinds of comments while driving the bus. "If you are telling me that I can't share my views, then find somebody else to drive my bus," the superintendent said she replied. Thompson, meanwhile, maintains [s]he was sacked because her talk with Burns was abrupt and her suggestion to be replaced was quickly accepted.

Sounds to me as if they tried to reprimand her, and she told them she could not accept the conditions of employment.

Thompson...said it is her responsibility to provide pupils with educational information.

Actually, it's not. It's her responsibility to get the students to and from school safely. No more, no less.

"It's natural for me to share facts and educate," she said. "If I'm just supposed to be quiet and not say a thing, I'll be happy to go."

If she'll be happy to go under those circumstances, what is she complaining about?

Ramming is a liar, my wife never met him or talked to him,
She never said those words, they are full of it.

It is their spin and they continue to try and spin their way out of it.

She was never warned, she asked was was approriate and never got an answer.

Pretty much. Sounds like everyone got what they wanted, so what's the big deal?
