Rutherford County Schools said a substitute teacher will no longer be working in the school district after he was accused of posting “inappropriate, threatening” comments on social media regarding President Donald Trump.
Rutherford County Schools received several messages about David Colin on Wednesday. Colin is accused of posting on Facebook, “the only good Trump supporter is a dead Trump supporter,” on Facebook Nov. 9 at 9:29 a.m.
Colin is not employed by RCS, but is contracted through PESG. The schools said Colin is no longer permitted to work in the district.
The school district has notified PESG about Colin. The contractor indicted that it will conduct an internal investigation of the allegations immediately.
"Information was presented to us by the school district," a PESG spokesperson said. "We are investigating it."
Colin is also accused of writing this on Facebook on Jan. 16: "I spent a lot of time today thinking about the state of this mess. There are huge numbers of people that are upset, mad, angry, (pretty much every negative word), but what I have not seen is a plan. Everyone is looking for leadership to start this off, but there is no one carrying the banner. Without that we will all settle in to becoming angry hateful people and there will be no solutions. So, where do we go from here? Rallies and demonstrations are pretty much futile, since the lunatics just laugh at us knowing we haven't the guts to stand up ad take the actions needed. Writing and complaining falls on deaf ears. Not until the first shot is fired will the recovery begin."
Here is the full statement from Rutherford County Schools:
Rutherford County Schools received several messages after hours on Feb. 8 about a substitute teacher who is accused of making inappropriate, threatening comments on social media during the work day.
Rutherford County Schools contracts with PESG to provide substitute teachers, and the school district has notified the contractor that the substitute teacher, David Colin, will not be permitted to work any longer as a substitute in Rutherford County Schools.
PESG has indicated it will conduct an internal investigation of the allegations immediately.
Fox 17 reached out to Colin, who didn't want to go on camera because he says he's received threats.
Oh yeah - Ed Rooney (character)
Guess that’s his mugshot below.
“Not until the first shot is fired will the recovery begin.”
Come get some.
Acting like MeGYN Kelly.
You are correct, sir!
Good grief. Wouldn’t want that creature anywhere near my grand kids.
I actually took it from the band (having seen them on TV) which, of course, was from the movie - hence the water tower at the homepage.
I had forgotten, though, that it was probably their cover of Dexy’s Midnight Runners hit.
Johnnie and I are competing for worst screen name, lol.
Looks like his nose has been broken a couple of times....by a lefty.
Looks like he smeared his lipstick.
LOL.
That’s a F.A.G., Baby.
I don’t want him near anything!!! Except maybe an ISIS camp; seems appropriate. They’ll LOVE his hair.
He wouldn’t recognize irony no matter how hard it slapped him.
Is he trying to go for the ‘gay Leon Redbone look’?
Certainly seems to be wearing quite the spiffy hairdo. Probably has shoes and a purse to match.
Or an ex-boyfriend.
I’m your Huckleberry, David Colin...
Love trumps hate!
Freedom of speech makes it easier to spot the peaceful, non-violent, tolerant leftists.
Vandy or Sewanee or UTC will offer him a tenured slot
You wish.
