Stuff like this really brings out the lefto loonies. The idea of internment camps is starting to look more attractive.

The only reason he's in hot water in Kalifornia is that he violated the fire code. Had he taken it outside, he probably would be principal by now........

Apocryphal or not - teachers are not allowed to endanger students. In most districts, open flames in the classroom are not allowed unless cleared by the principal; even then, they are intended to be for science projects/candles/small flames. Large open flames endanger the building, endanger students, and could possibly set off asthma attacks in asthmatic children.

If this story is true, I'd suggest attacking this story from the point of endangerment and lack of regard for asthmatic/allergic children. I don't care what his supervisors think about his freedom of speech, they won't be able to defend him starting a large smoky fire in an enclosed classroom...

I heard it too, yesterday on KFBK.

I heard he was a black muslim teacher -- a really militant guy.

Heard he burned the US flag, saying "Babylon is falling -- it got what was coming to it."

I think Del Paso Heights is not exactly the garden spot of Sacramento. Antelope, Roseville and Natomas are much nicer.

If true then the title SHOULD have read "Teacher fired...".

Black muslim, huh? He're comes Jackson and Fuzzhead and that other guy...Dergottheshitz. Freedom of speech...freedom of speech. Is there freedom of speech when you're being paid to teach a curriculum in the public schools? What exactly is treason?

Notice that the SacBee is carrying absolutely nothing about this major story:

</font size> SacramentoBee Local News

Search window is located at bottom left of screen.

I heard the whole story on the radio yesterday.

What the H*LL is he doing in this country if he hates it so much? Stuff like this makes me so mad.

Thanks I wasn't sure. Since they (KFBK) broke the story yesterday I wonder why the Bee didn't pick up on it. Maybe they ran out of ink??
