9-year old boy expelled from school because he said he "didn't like Obama"
April 29, 2015
Freedom of speech breached? 9 year old boy expelled from his school for anti-Obama remark.
9 year old Jacob Wheeler attending Rosa Parks elemenary school in Los Angeles, California, was asked to leave the school and "never come back" after he made some comments that the teacher did not approve of during a history lesson. The lesson, which centered around US presidents since the 18th century along with the current political landscape, was derailed when young Jacob raised his hand and said he "didn't like Obama". His teacher responded by sending him to the principal's office, where he was then told that he would be expelled from the school for insensitive and racist remarks.
Wheeler comes from a conservative Christian family. His parents Sarah and Brad Wheeler are avid republicans, involved in local politics.
"We've always raised Jacob and his brothers to love America, freedom and the right to bear arms. Those liberties do not go so well in hand with Obama's policies, so we've made sure he knows what kind of man is running our country. We're happy Jacob stood up for what he believed in in class, but the fact that he was expelled for being a red blooded American sickens me."
We reached out to Rosa Parks elementary where principal Hugh Myrone Gaines answered our comments. "Jacob disrupted the lesson in a very disrespectful way and spoke ill of our great, revolutionary and tolerant president. We will not allow such ignorance and racism at our establishment and we don't regret excluding him one bit. There's a time and place for freedom of speech, but insulting our great African American president won't be tolerated".

Please label satire.
It’s not satire. There’s no intended irony.
It’s presented as the truth and resembles most of the so-called news that we see. Its intent is to fool ignorant readers and instigate trouble that might distract attentions from the real villains.
Most of what is called news is propaganda sponsored by the most influential political constituents. Many lackeys emulate it or otherwise praise instead of looking behind the curtain.
This isn’t satire. It’s BS.
I can’t see how it helps conservatives to pull stuff out of their...hats — and put it on the net. We really are the stupid party.
And they control both political parties while presenting candidates who obviously lie and their bandwagons of blowhards.
Absolutely!
You are correct. it is satire.
But stop calling me surly. I’ve been in a good mood all day.
Why post stupid satire if there isn’t some humor involved. Are you the one posting all the salon articles too?
Good to hear it. It was my first reaction to check, as a blood pressure preventative. These days, you can never be sure what's real and what's not.
Funeeee!
Hey, I pinged you at #34, but somehow I sent it to myself instead! OOPs! Thanks. Rita
