"The misogynistic, homophobic, racist warmongerers in the classroom there in Collier Countyand there are plentyhave nothing to worry about because the School Board shares their views."
The same day, the Naples Daily News runs a letter to the editor from an Edison Community College employee asserting "It is simply outrageous to imply that professors are pushing 'propaganda on a captive audience' as [Professor Thomas] Sowell states [in a previous column]. As a student, it may be challenging to learn new things and open one's frame of reference to new concepts, but this is in no way being subjected to propaganda."
I guess it's not propaganda when you're "pro-peace, pro-worker, pro-environment."

I've heard Florida's public schools are awful.
At least they have the sense to suspend this lousy excuse for a teacher.

I heard the same thing; Florida public schools were awful - and from numerous sources. I also heard their state child protective service are one of the worst as well.

I am "pro-peace, pro-worker, pro-environment"
I want the US to kick ass on the bad guys so my kids can live in peace.
I want the US economy to rock so the businesses I am invested in can give lots of good jobs to the workers who merit them.
I love the woods, especially when I am flying through them at 100 mph on my 2-stroke snowmobiles.
The guy in the article is a watermelon, though. Green on the outside, but red communist in the middle.

He's trying to get in touch with Ward Churchill's speech booker...Get out there and spread anti American hate and many Universities will clamor for his services.

Someone should forward this to that teacher in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

At least they have the sense to suspend this lousy excuse for a teacher.If only because he was foolish enough to get noticed....

You are correct. I spent a few years living down there and my parents currently reside down there. What distinguishes Florida from other places is that even the affluent districts are AWFUL.

Thats what my friends say. Even areas where they have money, the public schools still stink.

I'm around classrooms all day and teachers offices. I'm a media specialist at a FL CC. Everywhere I go all I see is buckets full of condoms in the hallways and offices. Or I'll hear teachers spewing, angry political rants in their classes. We also host a high school on our campus. Nobody cares. This guy had to be really over the top gonzo to actually be sanctioned in FL's permissive, highly politicized education environment.

Regardless, this piece of hate-America filth should have been fired. Public "skools" are no place to be continuing the work of Baldur von Schirach.

This clown can go to Brooklyn and get a job at JHS 51 where his anti-American, anti-military views would be mainstream and where Principal Savier Castelli would defend his right to involve his students in his anti-Americanism.

My teen-aged daughter baby-sat an unusually bright Collier County public school fifth grader over the weekend. He informed her that "every time you turn on a light, an animal dies," ANWR should be absolutely off limits, and global warming is a scientific fact. He confirmed that's what is being taught in the government schools.
Between extreme environmental kookism and the non-existence of academic excellence, Florida's government schools make it easy for caring parents to choose homeschooling.

This guy was so far beyond the pale that he actually did get fired.
I take no comfort from that, however.

Florida's public schools are not awful, they are not good enough to be awful.
Seriously, Colier County is opposite Broward and Dade. It is on the west side. It is a red county where much single home developement has occured.

Yes, my wife and I (and later, our kids) used to go to Collier County (Marco Island) every Spring, in late April.
I'd never move there. Well, maybe to retire.

Notwithstanding Collier being a distinctly "red" county and despite one crusading school board member, the local education establishment has the same ideology here as elsewhere.
