BANGOR, MICH. - A video showing a group of Bangor teachers and staff making inappropriate comments about students prompted a school secretary to resign.

The commentary, heard in a six-minute video posted Monday, Feb. 13, to YouTube, shows a group of adults sitting around a table at the Bangor Tavern Bar and Grill. Such comments from seven involved Bangor Public Schools faculty include ratings of who they'd have sex with, marry, or kill.

So.. you’re okay with them stating publicly which underage students they would Marry, Kill, or Have Sex With?
That’s acceptable to you?

The radio this morning stated none of the FKM comments were about students. Is this new information, or #FakeNews?

That is the line the school lawyer is taking. The actual students say they were talking about students with some of the comments The lawyer is actively trying to hush up the community. The community is generally uneducated, and the lawyer is trying to take advantage of that.

Are you acually defending these idiots. Unbelievable. Not sure what state you are from. Here in Michigan, it is illegal for a teacher to have sex with a student, also illegal to have sex with a minor. And it is illegal to murder nationwide.

I really don’t see the problem here. FMK just an un-PC game people have been playing for years - it’s ludicrous to interpret any intent other than to have a good time with a party game. They made these comments in private, in a private location.

Unless there is evidence any of the people in the video acted on these comments, it’s really none of anyone else’s business.

I find the surreptitious recording of nonconsenting individuals conducting perfectly legal, private affairs to be the most offensive element in the story.

Busybodies are the tip of the spear of the nanny state.

They should be held to the same standards as a Republican would be. Fired.

There’s a big difference between TALKING about having sex with or killing someone and actually DOING it. While this conversation may have been indiscreet and in poor taste, it certainly isn’t criminal.

I don’t think it has ever been appropriate for a teacher to tell a student they wanted to have sex with them ...

I would pretty much agree with you. It's been talked about by kids and joked about in entertainment (and on FR with the "not guilty" teachers) since forever, but, no. Those who work with children should just not go there, if for no other reason than self-interest - seeing what is happening to these teachers.

I think the game offers insight into the thinking as well as the sexual preferences of the player . . . and is made particularly interesting when there is NO obvious sexual attractiveness in any of the proferred subjects.

As for me . . .

Kill: Hillary--no surprise there
"F": Nancy--one and done
Marry: Ruthie--I don't see her making too many demands on me

Most of the world is a “public place”.

They were not at school and they were not on the job.

Nothing in the game was illegal.

This is stupid talk among drinking adults that you will find in every community in the USA.

This kind of behavior is one of the reasons I do not hang out in bars, because people do stupid things there.

But it was not illegal, and it was a private conversation.

This is political correctness on steroids. A man or woman cannot make a stupid comment without fear of being fired.

The point of that game is that usually none of the people named are ones you would WANT to do that to. You are forced to “choose the lesser evil”, so to speak.

Before the national teachers unions, school boards had morals clauses built into teachers contracts.

We could go back to those days. There should not be any unions for public employees.
