Suspended? That’s a good start. This idiot should be banned from the classroom!!
Schmuck failed to realize his First Amendment is for HIS time. On OUR time WE have a say.
The teacher is not just stupid. But hateful and arrogant. It takes all three to do what he did. Being stupid is not someone’s fault. Being arrogant an hateful when your stupid is a choice though. And it’s a very bad choice.
The Deplorables in this town need to demand the school board send this dirt bag packing; just my opinion.
This is the kind of idiot where you go to court to seek a restraining order to keep YOUR child far away from him.
And he pulls this crap at BRAGG?
Outstanding. Some responsible student came and took the flag away from the filthy POS. Give that kid a scholarship.
If he doesn’t like the Stars and Stripes,
he should come and see my Stars and Bars.
I’ll get hammered here, but I think it’s a hell of a lesson.
Do I like it ? No !
Would I have done something about it if I was there ? Probably.
In fact, I used the same kind of example in an email to the Super regarding this:

“...teacher has been suspended after he stepped on an American flag as part of a history lesson on Monday”........
He needs a lesson taught by a few marines and he may just (if he survives) change his rhetoric. If nothing else, the beating would certainly be one for the history books.
Good thing they didn’t have him teaching sex ed.
No, it’s not an example of free speech. There is no free speech in the USA. Innocent people lose their jobs over words that they spoke that someone claimed were offensive.
Try stomping on an ISIS flag in an American college and see if that’s free speech.
This is one story that renews my faith is some of our young people. Seems there were at least 3 students who were more intelligent than their teacher.
Good on those kids.
Still not sure if we should be punishing severely those who do this (depending), but OTOH, schools and others should have the right to do what they damn well want.
“I took two steps with my right foot”
He was hopscotching?
There was no other way to demonstrate “free speech”?? Like, maybe raising the flag high, maybe, just maybe? Geesh!
“Also, Fayetteville is the home of Fort Bragg.”
Just sayin’...?
“Ill get hammered here, but I think its a hell of a lesson.
Do I like it ? No !”
How is it a hell of a lesson? Do you think we need to see a murder to understand its illegality?
OUR time, OUR money (for the schools), OUR kids, and OUR buildings for education NOT liberal indoctrination!
