Communism murdered 100 million innocents in the last century, and this teacher teaches his students to adore communist icons (Fidel and Che). What if he had posters of Hitler and Himmler on the wall, and the cop did the same thing. Any problem?

My problem is not with the desired end - of getting this teacher to quit promoting communist ideals. My problem is with the means - of a cop using his badge to pursue a political agenda while on duty. I belive it was Lenin, after all, who said that the end justifies the means. Are YOU and other posters now agreeing with that? It sure seems like it...

Communists and Fascists both used Western legalistic paralysis to invade like a social virus and conquer and enslave.

A society which finds itself totally hamstrung to the extent that a single cop is pilloried for "outing" a pro-communist high school history teacher is a society on its way out.

The local PD didn't form a jack boot brigade and begin to spy on teachers. This one cop took it on as his own personal mission. Hate him for it if you want, but he was just one fallible human, trying to correct an atrocity by shining light on it.

I never heard the libs condemn any of the tobacco industry whistleblowers for "stealing" documents, which they did. They were called heros, and Hollywood made movies about their virtue.

Communism is a thousand times more dangerous to than Big Tobacco.

The cop is a hero. He may be fired, he may be sued, he is still a hero.

He nationally exposed a communist agent.

Conservatives believe that Conservative Ends justify any Means whatever.

Liberals believe that Liberal Ends justify any Means whatever.
