Ha...It's not the same when it's a teacher. Having worked in a school, I have to say the general professional standard is that ANY interaction with a student, should be kept professional. Even if you don't want to look at this as something they should get actually fired over, it is a severe lapse of the district to not take it seriously and investigate. The responsibility of any teacher is to educate, and in the K-12 setting, to attempt to ensure their students safety whenever they are having contact with them. If he doesn't want the responsibility of trying to keep his students safe based on their facebook comments, don't friend them.Duncanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09310155707358424696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137969430227385820.post-24354858368995737052011-10-28T15:00:32.281-07:002011-10-28T15:00:32.281-07:00why fight over it one of my best friends is lesbia...why fight over it one of my best friends is lesbian and another ones gay they say you should just be proud of who you are and turn a deaf ear to comment such as these what do you stand to gain from suicideUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08500336238276087754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137969430227385820.post-51670466402524761512011-10-28T14:43:29.074-07:002011-10-28T14:43:29.074-07:00@ unknown - so i can't yell "free beer&qu...@ unknown - so i can't yell "free beer" at a football game, but an employee of THE STATE has the right to advocate for all gays to commit suicide in a public digital forum? people seem to forget that freedom of speech doesn't include libel or slander and i'm pretty sure this falls into libel. and even if its not he's still condoning violence towards, not just a student, but an entire community of people. and oakland is a recent reminder that there is no such thing as free speech. you must pay for everything that you say in some form or another, be it a tear gas canister the head, or losing your job. this case isn't all that dissimilar from the lawyer that harassed the student body president.literarily fuckedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08885673714079035349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137969430227385820.post-44134660315006943942011-10-28T13:42:53.037-07:002011-10-28T13:42:53.037-07:00hey I don't take sides on the matter because i...hey I don't take sides on the matter because it says in the bible I should judge or condemn. but I am studying towards being a politician and no matter how wrong and distasteful what he posted was it is a matter of his views and opinions which goes under freedom of speech. there are limits to what you can say like don't scream free beer at a football game but what he said was wrong and that's his views and because its his personal account I don't believe he should be punished for what he said just accept who he is, a crazy mental close minded person who somehow got a teaching licenseUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08500336238276087754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9137969430227385820.post-62309187802729924722011-10-28T13:41:10.358-07:002011-10-28T13:41:10.358-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08500336238276087754noreply@blogger.com
