An online petition has gathered more than 1,300 signatures on behalf of a popular Virginia high school teacher who was kicked out of the classroom earlier this month for using a racial slur.
The petition claims history teacher Lynne Pierce, who is white, did nothing wrong when she uttered the “N-word” during a discussion with her students at Heritage High School in Newport News about racism, derogatory terms and the nickname of the Washington Redskins. Heritage is 90 percent black.

100% of people who sing (sing along) with crap (rap) or hip hop music say the word multiple times a day.
Trying to make a correlation between the word Redskin and n-—ger is pretty assinine. She should be fired for stupidity
I was first introduced to Doritos hauling hay in Texas. That was back in to good old days before I banned Doritos after they came out for LGBTWHATEVER.
If the teacher had been black, she would have had the freedom to say the n word.
Free people can say any word they want to. They also don’t have to write “the N-word” when they mean to use the word, “nigger”.
And why is it that the people who are the most outraged by the use of the word are the very people who use it the most in their music?
I had to sub for a teacher who’d assigned a book with the n word - rats were the main characters, title on the tip of my tongue. I often wonder if that was why she played hooky that day. I saw it coming but decided to read it out loud anyway. I don’t play silly PC games. Of course, a Katrina trash kid tried to get hyper. Tried. Didn’t succeed.
She should have just had one of their rap songs they all love shimmying to at that word, and played it at the proper time(s).
And why is it that the people who are the most outraged by the use of the word are the very people who use it the most in their music?
Because...as good an answer as any...
