Zounds. I just saw his picture. I didn't want to say it before without evidence, but perhaps this was a case of "ugly white kid with no friends trolls black teacher who was spraying the Obama koolaid all year long. Maximum lulz obtained."

I had a description of what I estimated her to look like typed up, but i removed that from my post because it might seem insensitive.

I don't have any belief it was a beauty contest.

Life is a beauty contest. People who type stuff like you typed have already lost. *Tosses epic man-locks in the wind and saunters away*

But I'm just sayin, I was on the kids side until I saw his picture. I'd yell at him too.

To sum up my response.

If a kid puts forward a bigoted view, I ask questions to see if they'll consider it in a new light.

I never give my political leanings away and I never speak in favour of one or other party. In my view, that's the professional way to approach it. That teacher was being unprofessional and it seems like they need some time off to get their head straightened out. On the other hand, the kid should be disciplined for being disrespectful.

Da Boss has the correct way of it.

I opened 'topics started by Frazzled' and was unsurprised to see 6 topics naming Obama directly and highlighting the President in some negative fashion on the first page alone, that's disregarding the anti-democrat or anti-Biden or anti-liberal posts.

Give it a bloody rest.

Evidently you didn't actually read the thread.

As you say, give it a rest.

Yea I didn't listen to it either. Nothing incorrect in saying the kid wasn't a punk too. His pic confirms it.
