So the Hate America First crowd is now “another culture”? OK.
WHAT other cultures? Did they immigrate here? Then they WANT to be Americans, right?
unfrickenbelievable. Fire the principal, get rid of the teachers union, disband the Department of Education and crap like this won’t be happening like it is which would have been absurd to think about 20-30 years ago.
I’d love to see the look on her face if everyone in the assembly stood up and sung it a capella.
Fire the SOB.
Now.
A principal a pimple on the festering sore of public education.
Principal Greta Hawkins has just saved someone a lot of time and money investigating just exactly who the village idiot is.

Greta Hawkins is vindictive and malicious towards everyone who is not in her close circle of trusted employes until she decides they are no longer useful to her. What advice would you give to a teacher working with this principal? Don't work here. Find another place as far away as possible. For your peace of mind and job security.

“We don’t want to offend other cultures,”
People say this as if THEY practice American culture. They are mistaken.
Defund the NEA and bust the teachers unions. They are a disgrace!
Her remark, “I’m black, your previous principal was white and jewish. More of us are coming.” should have not ended with her being reprimanded, she should have had a permanent vacation. If a white principal was working in let’s say Newark NJ where there is a high black population in the school, and the white anglo saxon principal said, “I’m white, your previous principal was black. More of us white people are coming.” It’s not hard to figure out what would happen to this white principal in Newark NJ. He’’d be fired, and Sharpton and Jessie Jackson would scold him and make him pay resitution and reparations for the “damage” he caused to the children and “every black person in America”. That white principal’s reputation would be ruined for life and imagine the death threats he would receive. It would likely be worse than Zimmerman’s death threats.
Justin Beiber’s baby? I thought the punk was queer.
She is worthless. All she has going for her is her color, which she wields like a sword.
Thank you teacher unions for letting scum like this flourish and run unfettered among children.
Contact info for their school district supervisor?
Who does the racist anti-American freak answer to?
Uhhh, as much as I despise unions, the actual article accuses the union of unfairly attacking the principal (that is the district's excuse for not listening to the complaints... because she is being "targeted" by the local union). How some of you can turn this into an anti-union screed doesn't help conservatives or union-busters at all. It just makes us look like idiots, when we bash the union for doing the right thing here...
Five classes spent months learning the patriotic song, which skyrocketed in popularity after the 9/11 attacks and the 2003 invasion of Iraq.
It was to be the rousing finale of their musical show at the June 20 commencement. The kids, dressed up for their big day, would wave tiny American flags — which, as the lyrics proclaim, “still stand for freedom.”
But Hawkins marched in on a recent rehearsal and ordered a CD playing the anthem to be shut off, staffers said.

Haven’t been to Brooklyn in a long time, but I imagine that we underestimate the power and scope of the “proud immigrants”.
Maybe the problem is not this cowardly principal but the people backing her.
She can’t be acting on her own, I don’t think.
“I’m black. Your previous principal was white and Jewish. More of us are coming.”
This is one of the outcomes of electing an affirmative action president. This message has become common from various black constituencies. All that you have to do is show up and you will be annointed. E pluribus unum seems like a long time ago.
