Why the Teacher's Union, and the parents, and the School Board allows such principals to retain their positions when they allow such a permissive atmosphere in their school that teachers are beaten is bewond me.

The Puerto Rican students wanting an education (most of them), the parents of all students at that school, and the tax payers who will most certainly have to pay the inevitable judgement are also "victims".

Such conditions are probably more common than we know.

Does anyone know of similar problems? If so, I would like to know, and I am sure the FR community would, too.

There is no freedom of speech in this country. If you speak the "wrong" opinion, you can lose your job, you can be passed over for promotion, you can be vilified. Freedom of speech does not exist only for left wingers and PC morons. If you don't like my opinions, STFU, I don't care.

People can't take hearing what they don't like anymore. And may heaven help your soul if you are white and you dare speak out against the actions of a "minority".

This is an interesting case. Its always a worth observing how wonderful tolerance is when one isn't a member of a protected class. I hope this teacher wins her case.

This is not just a "free speech" issue, but also calls into play the right "to petition the government for a redress of grievances," which is also in the First Amendment. Can you say big bucks under 42 U.S.C.S. Sec. 1983? Sure, I thought you could.

" She also mentioned her problem with the presence of Puerto Ricans at her school – both students and teachers. "

I don’t’ know what that’s about. WND has a way of presenting half the truth.

If she said something really racist, not just anti-illegal immigrant, which it probably was if she complained of PR teachers, then she should have been fired. Schools have morality standards. A teacher lost her job here in Key Largo a few years ago for getting pregnant twice without being married. (And no, they didn’t want her to abort it.)

Poor dear - she should have slept with some students instead. Then she would have been suspended with pay.
