Let's see. I don't know if these are true or not. But, if a teacher ever did these to my kid? I'd knock his teeth out. Her's too if the teacher is female.....
1. I was on the front page of the local newspaper for my political volunteer work and my teachers noticed. One of my seven teachers made it very clear that she dissaproved of my civic engagement. In a period of two months, my Geography teacher frequently would take me aside after school for a few minutes and tell me how stupid, wrong and misguided I was for being Republican.
2. He spent the remainder of that period lecturing us about how much he hated Scott Walker and explained all the reasons why. He said, most small business owners and workers take off Fridays and summers. According to him, small business owners go golfing every Friday. He also said many businessmen work fewer hours than teachers. He explained how his pay was too low to support his family. He told the class his pay was so bad he had to paint houses in the summers. During this discussion, he was swearing and saying how wrong it was for anyone to support Walker. Students were telling him to stop, and he wouldnt.
3. He then gave me a book to read about Abraham Lincoln. He told me that good politicians read a lot. Then he said, I dont think Scott Walker likes to read.
4. The same English teacher who had lectured to almost 30 students about a month earlier took me aside during class again. He started talking about Mitt Romney and Scott Walker and his views on them. He reiterated how much harder he worked compared to my dad, a small business owner, which he had no knowledge of. He went on to ask how much my parents made because he wanted to compare it to his salary.
5. Later during the apology, he started to talk about Walker again and how much he hated him. He just couldnt stop. At the end of the conversation, my teacher asked you know how you went down to the principals office? I said yes, and he said I dont give a sh*t. I asked why, and he went on to explain that he was friends with the principal so it didnt matter to him and he wouldnt get in trouble because of their friendship.
6. When I presented in front of the class, he asked if I supported the Tea Party. I said yes. He rolled his eyes and told me believing in the organization was weird." He also told me he knew nothing about the Tea Party.
7. For about five minutes, she called all Republicans racist. According to her, she had never seen such discrimination against a president and President Obama has been the most ill-treated president in the history of the United States, all because the Republicans don't want a black man in the White House.
Edit:
I have to be very professional at work. I expect teachers to do the same.
