SPENCER, NC -- A North Carolina high school teacher has been suspended following the release of a YouTube video in which she is heard yelling at a student in class and telling him it's wrong to criticize President Barack Obama.

The Salisbury Post reports that Tonya Dixon-Neely's class at North Rowan High School was discussing Obama and Republican candidate Mitt Romney when the conversation turned to accusations that Romney bullied someone as a teenager.

Does anybody here search before posting?
I’m glad this story’s getting legs, but a lot of good comments and info are on the other threads.

The “public school”, including the “charter school”, is BY FAR, the largest, most expensive, most subversive, and most destructive entitlement program in the country.

The “public school”, including the “charter school”, is better understood as the “government school collective”.

It is silly to imagine that you can fix the public schools, because the very concept itself is communist.

Any child that comes out of the government school collective with their moral compass and common sense intact does so in spite of the government school indoctrination, not because of it.

If you want to win the culture war, have lots of children (see my tagline) and homeschool them or form your own school cooperative with your church or synagogue and like-minded friends and relatives.

Nobody loves your children more than you do.

Nobody can teach your children like you can.

Your children would love nothing better than to be taught by you, if you start doing so before they are corrupted by the government school collective.

It is hypocritical for you to submit your children to an authority with whom you fundamentally disagree. And your children will know it.

If you have children, make whatever sacrifices you must to get them out of the public schools.

DO NOT FEED THE BEAST!

Especially not with your own children.

And DO NOT TAKE GOVERNMENT “EDUCATION” MONEY!

He that pays the piper calls the tune, and that’s especially true for any government “education” program.

Under Act 10 in Wisconsin, hopefully this teacher could be fired! But now other teachers’ union dues will be used to “protect her rights” i.e. tenure.

This teacher is a horrible example of adulthood, much less the education profession. She has little grasp of leadership in the classroom, basic grammar, or the US Constitution.

Nonetheless, I am sure that she will be reinstated as soon as the crisis dies down.

Hopefully he can spend some of it on new tires and maybe a paint job for his car.

The AP sure whitewashed the story details.

Suspended with pay. Damn, that’s some ballsy administration in that school district.

Has anyone else noticed that the Oba-zombies are starting to crack under the strain of having to constantly defend this A-hole?

The yelling was the least of it.

Listening to the audio, it is clear she is completely unqualified to teach Social Studies, or ANYTHING ELSE!

Everything liberals touch turns to crap.
There was a time when education was a priority and people in the business could be respected.

That was a long time ago.

Wonder if she is going to spend that time going on tour with Trayvon’s mother.

Yes, they felt the pressure so being sneaky, deceiptful lefties, they suspended her with pay and that means they rewarded the diversity racist freak with a paid vacation.
