This looks to be a positive outcome and I give kudos to the school system for it. Especially for Massachusetts!

“Then she asked why I support a racist and a pedophile,”

The perfect response would be “I’m not a Biden supporter”

When you dig just a bit into the facts of a situation like this, you soon learn the pathetic truth: a typical classroom in an American school is run by an infantile teacher who is less mature than some of his or her students.

This virus has done a great job of shutting these “teachers’” yaps - anything done remotely can be recorded.

We let this happen to our schools, now it;s time we fix them. Complacency is consent.

Need to have more anti tenure and reformed civil service laws passed so that these commie “educators” won’t feel so emboldened to spread their tommyrot and harass students.

I’ve told this story many times before. In fact I have it ready to copy and paste because I think it’s important.

I’m a teacher myself - I teach secondary school history to older students - 14-18 year olds. I am very careful to avoid promoting my own political beliefs in the classroom - with my oldest, most mature students, I will tell them if they ask, what I think and why, but I will also direct them to contrary arguments and encourage them to independently research things.

When I was at school in the late 1960s and early 1970s, one of my teachers, who was also the school’s Chaplain was very active in the anti-Vietnam War movement, and also a number of other left-wing causes (a couple of which I even agreed with him on actually). I was considering going into the military after I left school, and I sought out the teachers I trusted and admired for advice - I had lost my parents so I relied on certain other adults. When I went to him, I expected him to tell me joining the military was a bad idea. Instead, he told me it was a good career and he thought I’d do well in it. My surprise was obvious to him, because he went on to elaborate on his philosophy of teaching.

He told me that his mission as a teacher was always to try and teach his students HOW to think, not WHAT to think. And while he was always happy on some level, when a student agreed with him, that he would regard himself as a profound failure as a teacher if all his students did so. It would mean he’d failed to teach them to think for themselves.

When I became a teacher myself, I’ve tried to adopt the same philosophy.

That teacher is a sicko and should be out of a job.

Not only did that teacher gang up on the kid, but she allowed other students to do the same.

She shouldn’t be in a position of trust having anything to do with children.

Period.

"Then she asked why I support a racist and a pedophile," he noted to WHDH. Jackson added to the station that "she also said, 'I am ashamed of any woman who voted for Donald Trump,' and I told her my mom and one of my grandmothers voted for Donald Trump."

The FBI needs to run over to the school - take names and see if they can recruit some new agents...

Another nasty, leftist, government union, pubic school teacher abusing a child.

Screw an apology, ze should be charged with child abuse, and the principal charged with aiding and abetting it. Get serious on it.

It appears like the Gloucester, Massachusetts, facility should be more appropriately named the O’Maley Demonicrat Indoctrination Camp.

Here is what happened. The teacher is a bully and she organized a group of bullies against the Trump supporter. Now, if we contacted the school and asked what the position of the administration was regarding bullies and bullying, we would be assured that bullying in any form isn’t tolerated. Sure! The teacher needs to be disciplined at least, and perhaps terminated at best.

Abolish government (taxpayer funded) schools. If parents paid directly for it, maybe they would take more of an interest in what does and does not happen there.

“... they should “stand in the middle and hear from both sides.”

Why on earth do grown adults in the ‘teaching profession’ NEED that spelled out for them?

I mean-no one who thinks any differently should EVER even BE in a classroom.

Justifies the idea I have that teachers are some of the most biased people in any ‘profession’...but probably because their college was, TOO

The President is a controversial topic now? Can you imagine if they did that with Obama?
