The predictable result of spending too much time in the right wing echo chamber. It all sounds so reasonable when you hear millionaire media celebrities spout the same crap 24/7 on Fox News and talk radio.
In the real world, not so much.
You would never hear this on Fox. You would hear this in the real world.
Maybe it's time to state the obvious--this woman is too stupid to be teaching anyone. Seriously, anyone who doesn't know by now how much trouble you get into by posting inflammatory things on social media does not possess the brains it takes to be a teacher. This woman is better suited as a Walmart greeter, where she will not be required to have to think.
Maybe she can be replaced with some of those minority candidates who can't pass the discriminatory NY teachers' exam. Now that would be racial justice.

If I was a teacher I would not have a facebook account.
Teachers in my local school district don't. I live about an hour's drive from McKinney.
There's a standard clause in the handbook much like the one in Frenship but it goes a little further.
in addition, the teachers are told at every back-to-school convocation: "The decision to maintain a social media presence is yours. Just remember that every comment you make will be scrutinzed - not by us [i.e. school administration] but by your students, their parents, their neighbors, and the community in general. And they hold you to a very high standard."
There are about 1300 teachers in our district and as far as I know, not one has a FB account under his/her real name. Some have Twitter accounts but only post informational things like reminders of school events.
She deserved to get fired. I truly do believe that the attitudes and biases of teachers in the classroom is one of the direct contributors to the academic gap in our country in regards to race.

So she can kiss that pension goodby (need 30 years or rule of 70)
Her post was up less than 24 hours.
School was pressured to fire her.
And to tell you the truth, I've seen worse posts here on C-D. It's people's opinions/rants/vents. But I would never think to hunt down their identity and then proceed to get them fired from their jobs.
I actually have thought about doing this. Many self-proclaimed teachers here don't need to be teaching youth who state extremely prejudicial and racist thoughts. But I'm too techy dumb to do something like that. If I wasn't though, I would.
A Lubbock Texas teacher was fired after posting on Facebook that the pool party shows the need for segregation. I'm amazed at the CLM stuff people post publicly using their real names.

How can a grown woman, an educated professional, be so f-ing stupid as to post something so horrible on social media. What an absolute fool, yet people do this all the time.
I’m going to just go ahead and say it … the blacks are the ones causing the problems and this ‘racial tension,’” Fitzgibbons said. “I guess that’s what happens when you flunk out of school and have no education. I’m sure their parents are just as guilty for not knowing what their kids were doing; or knew it and didn’t care.”
“I’m almost to the point of wanting them all segregated on one side of town so they can hurt each other and leave the innocent people alone,” Fitzgibbons said. “Maybe the 50s and 60s were really on to something. Now, let the bashing of my true and honest opinion begin….GO!”
This Lubbock Tx. teacher has never been to Craig Ranch in McKinney Tx. Average home $550.000 minimum sq.ft. 3200
Black or white, these kids are not uneducated, or impoverished.

I don't feel they should be fired. They need to be educated.
Everyone has an opinion. A government cannot punish you for that opinion. A private business... YES.. Not a government, funded with tax dollars.

Were the teacher black and stating that the white man is the Devil on Facebook, would you be as accommodating?
