A first-grade teacher in Washington was placed on administrative leave after urging people on Facebook to report suspected undocumented residents, school district officials said.
Cheriese Rhode, 29, allegedly posted a message last week encouraging citizens to inform Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents of those believed to be in the country without proper documentation.

The reported missive was posted in connection with last Thursdays A Day Without Immigrants boycott, during which businesses closed and children were kept home from school to show the importance of immigrants in the United States.
If this offended you in anyway (sic) do me a favor and unfriend my American a--!!! the post said.
The message spawned phone calls, emails and visits to the Prosser School District, where 62 percent of students are Hispanic, the Tri-City Herald reported.

Due to possible safety and security concerns, as well as concern for disruption of the school environment, this teacher has been placed on administrative leave pending (an) investigation, Prosser Superintendent Ray Tolcacher said in a statement.
Please be assured that the views expressed by this teacher on her personal Facebook page do not in any way reflect the views, beliefs or values of the Prosser School District or its administration or Board of Directors, Tolcacher said.
The post was later removed from Facebook and the teachers page appears to have been taken down. She has not responded publicly to the districts statement.

Black Lives Matter tahirts are okay.
Happy we are a nation of laws not okay.
She made the mistakes of having a conservative political option and being white working for the leftist state.
So, she has been essentially fired for urging people to obey the laws of this country.
I smell a huge payday in her future, millions to be exact...................
PING
Meh. Truth. That’s so last millennium.

Translation: She may be fired for following the law. Public schools are cancer, pure and simple.
God I hope you’re correct.
America needs to realize we have an imigrant problem.Those who came here legally are mixing in with the illegals it appears. They are circumventing our laws and folks do not realize the cost. Those that came legally do not assimilate and act as though America has unlimited resources to which we do not.
America is in debt and cannot afford to keep taking those from other countries tries that do not want them. We are taking others cast offs and draining our resources. WE have a lot of young people that have been brainwashed by a education system that is also draining us dry. AMERICA SEEMS TO have lost her mind.
WE DO NOT HAVE UNLIMITED RESOURCES AND CANNOT TAKE ALL THE WORLD’S CAST OFFS.

I certainly hope so.
Is there a reason why ICE can’t be there checking papers on the way out? I am sorry, but we spent the past eight years worrying that BHO might at any moment use the insane expansion of the executive branch to crack down on people who followed the Constitution. Now the Left pretends to be worried that it will be used to deport non-citizens? Welcome to our world. If we aren’t going to use those mechanisms to get our country back, let’s dismantle the behemoth federal government.
“So much for freedom of speech outside the classroom. This is not an illegal or immoral post...”
I think she just hit the lawsuit lottery. Bankrupt the school district and its residents.
Good.
For too long illegals have walked around with a feeling that they can operate with impunity and even publicly flaunt that fact.
Anyone who is on the wrong side of the law should feel a natural sense of anxiousness and apprehension. That feeling should hover over them like a cloud.
Meanwhile the teachers I know have to be subjected to constant left wing posts by their fellow teachers on Facebook.
Most teachers cannot afford to take legal action in defense. It is time conservative lawyers let it be known they will defend aggrieved teachers and others who are attacked by leftist administrations, pro bono.
Is this any different from your neighbors reporting you for saying something they don’t agree with?
We don’t want “brown shirts” going around “telling on” people. What would we say if a teacher at the same school was fired for saying something negative about Trump?
I’d be applauding but we can’t have it both ways.
Maybe thew ACLU?..................
