North Carolina Student Berated For "Criminal" Act of Criticizing Obama... Suspended, And Harrassed
Suspended from school. Of course.
The kid was harassed, his sister says, by the teacher's relatives, who attend the school. His request to finish the year by home-schooling was denied (naturally).
[T]hey gave him a suspension on his school record for videotaping in the classroom -- the first suspension ever issued for such an action, despite the fact that other students have also videotaped on school grounds.
The young man’s sister stated that assistant principal Antoine Brisbon said to her brother, “That was a very stupid thing you did. You have damaged the school. Our staff is taking a beating because our phones are nonstop. This is all over the country.”
No, the teacher damaged the school; the kid just exposed it.
So tell me once again how teachers and the NEA are "all about the children."
Yeah.
