Teacher suspended after removing 'Trump' from yearbook
BBC ^

Posted on 06/13/2017 11:27:53 AM PDT by BenLurkin

Two students complained after their photographs were apparently edited to remove Mr Trump's name and his campaign slogan, Make America Great Again.

Another student was upset that a quote by Mr Trump that she had submitted for the yearbook was not included.

The teacher who advised the yearbook team has been placed on paid leave.

...

"References to and support of President Trump were involved in each of these incidents," Ms Dyer wrote in a statement published over the weekend.

She added that the teacher's actions amounted to "censorship and the possible violation of First Amendment rights" to free expression.

...

Third-year student Grant Berando told the Asbury Park Press on Friday that the alteration was an obvious case of Photoshop.

"I sent it to my mom and dad, just like 'You won't believe this.' I was just overall disappointed," he said about his photo, which had been edited to show him wearing a non-descript black shirt.

...

Other references to the 2016 presidential election were not altered, students say.

“Exactly. This is some truly scary stuff, and if a civil war ever does break out, leftists “educators” are at risk of being at the very top of angry Americans’ target lists”

You’re going to need a ton of ammunition because virtually every school teacher is of the same bent, having come from universities and colleges staffed by the same kind of people. If we don’t stop three things, we’re doomed as a nation: 1) Liberal school teachers indoctrinating our children, 2) Muslims killing us off and 3) Liberal politicians ( who actually are also a product of #1).

You say this as if it is a bad thing... I tend toward using the DNC voter rolls as a proscription list.

stupid tax aka public school taxes levied against their homes.

Sad that friends of friends on FB are saying this young man looks stupid. I suggest those liberals look in the mirror.

Both my dad and I matured into (says mom and my wife) good looking guys by the age of 25. OTOH, we have both also hunted down ever possible high school senior photo that we can find of ourselves since the doofus-factor was strong when both of us were 17-18. Totally uncool to trash kids on how they look at this age.

As someone who wore catholic grade school uniforms for 8 years and Jacket and tie for grades 9 and 10. I think either uniforms or respectable neat, non information revealing clothes should be worn in public schools.

Students are there to learn not preach either left or right.

Now if we can just get the schools to teach true facts? But that is another much bigger problem.

That’s true, but it is still a draw on the budget of the school that could have gone to something else.

Schools always thinking they deserve more money, their administrators wouldn’t want to spend money on something repairing damage by a Democrat (Leftist).

I might add, I find it very fitting they will have to spend this money to make up for their evil intent.

It makes it public what they did.

The left censors everything...And if they don’t agree with something, they don’t want to hear it. And they’ll shout you down and talk over you to prove it. This happens over and over and over.

“Liberals are so petty and mean, just like the children they are.....................”

Like middle school, (jr. high school in my day), students.

I've got her number!

I guaran-damn-tee you that when this teacher was in school she was an ankle kicker!

One of those mean, sneaky little girls who tortured boys by kicking them in the achilles tendon at the back of the ankle when kids were mobbed up in the hall or standing in line.

Then she would look the other way or point at one of the girls she didn't like!

Now we see how they end up when they get some years on them!

People don’t realize how evil these people are and how dangerous it is to allow these people to shape our children’s minds. Most “teachers” are facilities of Marxist ideology and they don’t even “know” it because they are irrational and ignorant (non-thinking brainwashed bots who went through the communist Dewey’s system of Mind Control).

They are exactly the same type of godless people who led the Reign of Terror in France and who piled the Jews and non-conforming “Christians” into cattle cars.

Maybe so, but my comments were in response to your posting.

The teacher was placed on paid leave.

He/she should be fired outright. The parents should demand it. If they don't, the courts should demand it.

I have a book called ‘The Commissar Vanishes’, and it goes through
all the known photographs involved in airbrushing and the
removal of known companions.

There is one fascinating person that was airbrushed out - and after
a lengthy stay at a re-education facility had his picture taken
with Stalin once again.

It is interesting, and a very large book. Not think, but large.
