MONSTERS IN THE CLASSROOM:NYC TEACHERS UNION REINSTATES ALLEGED MOLESTERS

What are parents to do when their child comes home from school with stories about "this creepy guy in my class" – and it turns out to be the teacher?

That’s a very real concern for parents with children in New York City public schools, where 14 teachers of highly dubious character have been reinstated to the classroom – and two others have been given "desk duty" – thanks to appeals by their powerful teachers union, the United Federation of Teachers.

NYDailyNews.com reports that 16 teachers "kept their jobs after being brought up on egregious charges, some sexual, some involving excessive personal familiarity with students."

A few examples:

Gym and health teacher Willie Laraque was charged with bending a male student over a desk, leaning in to him and saying, "I’ll show you what is gay." The Daily News reports Laraque is back in the classroom after paying a $10,000 fine.

Norman Siegel, a high school teacher, was accused of pressing his genitalia against a female student’s leg. Siegel only received a 45-day unpaid suspension, "although the arbitrator found that the girl’s charge was likely true" and that Siegel "was previously accused of a similar offense," the Daily News writes.

There’s also a case involving Edward Cascio, a gym teacher who accepted pornographic pictures from a student – of another student. Cascio was back at work after serving his three-month suspension.

The district tried to fire these individuals, but the UFT appealed the decisions to arbitrators, who gave the teachers their jobs back.

-—What if all the years of energy, work, dedication, and caring exerted by well meaning but Useful Idiot government teachers had been directed at closing down the government schools and organizing a system of universal privatized education?——

Isn't that the same as asking what the earth would be like if it was square instead of round ?

All the conjection about what ifs is meaningless

What is important is being vigilant in protecting homeschooling rights as the socialist school system eventually collapses when funding dries up...every home scholar will be targeted

Should decent, hard working, caring people work in abortion centers, order the supplies, and hand the instruments to the abortionist, on the hope that they might reach a few women and save a few babies?

Nobody who works in a abortion mill is a decent person...

You aren't actually comparing teachers to abortion mill personnel are you...?

If you are ...you have a serious perception problem...

You do understand there is a difference between outright evil from the very pit of hell like a nurse watching a baby being ripped to pieces in the womb and feels nothing and a teacher who pays union dues to the NEA and doesn't care...

What would you call forcing a child to think and reason godlessly? Personally I call it pure evil.

Yet...Every government owned and run K-12 school in this nation is godless in its worldview. A child must think and reason godlessly just to cooperate in the classroom. How could it be otherwise? If this isn’t evil then what is?

Personally, I believe that we are now a critical junction in our nation’s history. I seriously doubt that our nation can survive one more generation of voters subjected to this godless indoctrination. And....This is the consequence for our nation. What about the consequences for our nation’s children? Look at the illegitimacy rates. Thirty percent of child born to women under thirty are born to unmarried women.

It is time to call government socialist-entitlement schooling what it is: EVIL.

And...Those who establish it, and open the doors to it are also cooperating with evil.

Too bad the parents will not organize against this perverse view of the world. I would challenge the teachers when they would say crazy stuff when my kids were in school; sometimes my kids would challenge them by themselves. I raised 5 conservatives.

The gay activists at the schools come on with an authoritian and violent reaction when parents or teachers object. It’s really strange...mentally ill.

I was working with a man in Mass. once who was opposing radical sexual behaviors of school officials which boiled down to him going up against the teachers union in the Mass. State House. They left a message on his phone recorder that they were going to rape his kid(s). They named his child or children - can’t remember that detail on the number of children he had. They were in the schools with his children so it’s not like he could protect them from harassment and rape.

It was wierd but it did not stop his work. Most parents would be afraid and not take the chance of having their children targeted for harm like that. It will probably take a lot of kids being harmed before the courts step in to stop them. But in the meantime they are trying to legalize sex with children, often naming it “children’s rights.”

Yes...look at the threats in CA when Prop 9 was up for the vote. There are some crazy/violent gays out there, no doubt.
