I don't recall you consulting me on your English curriculum...

...so how 'bout you keep your nose out of self-defense matters?

The American Federation of Teachers, like everybody else on the planet, has apparently issued a statement of their position on what they think just happened in Florida.

My step mom was a union teacher; my father was not.

Made for some interesting dinner conversations.

Isn't this the same Union who thinks that have Armed Security Guards to Protect their Asses from Random Nutjobs is a BAD Idea, and that it's much better to round up Kids into a nice package so as to make it easier for the Goblin(s) to slaughter them?

Oh, I wonder how many Armed Guards are on Duty at Union HQs around the nation?

Quoted for accuracy:

"...the antithesis of what we teach our children in schools..."

Correct, and positively chilling.

I don't mind if you want to critique my Freshman Composition class's textbook. The more eyes, the better. :)

They keep trying to get me to join, and I keep telling them to pound sand. The local union president got pissed at me last fall when I told him to quit emailing me election propaganda and that my inbox was for business only.

Got in a heated argument the other day just because I stated that Zimmerman shouldn't have even gotten out of his car. Even tho I also stated that the jury would find him not guilty of the charges. This was a week before the verdict came out. The only point I was trying to make was that the whole thing could have been avoided.
Bet GZ is thinking the same thing bout now.

So American teachers decry racial profiling?

Have they a position on affirmative action, race-based scholarships, single-race frats/sororities and other race-based activities in institutions of higher education, as well?

Or does their interest in racial colorblindness stop after their students pass age 17?
