SINKING SPRING, Pa. —

A York County teacher is charged after police say he made threats in connection with COVID-19.

Police say Chad Gerrick, 50, a teacher at Sinking Springs Elementary School in the Central York School District, put up a plastic barrier in his classroom. Police say it was taken down by maintenance, which angered Gerrick.

Investigators say on Friday, Gerrick made threats to school officials, including saying if he got COVID-19, he would shoot them and spread COVID-19 to everyone he could.

The district says Gerrick is on leave.

""If I get COVID, I will shoot all them [expletive]," Gerrick said, according to a court affidavit. "I don't care how sick I am, I will come into school and spread COVID to everyone that I can.""

What the heck happened to these people?
It’s a disease with a 99%+ survival rate. A bad flu year.
They act like they’re going die if they get it.

Sounds like he’s trying for long-term disability based on going crazy. Otherwise, he would just wear one of those face shields with 2-3 masks under it and keep 6 feet away from everyone else.

There are a lot of mentally deranged freaks embedded in the schools.

Wow, the left has really lost their minds to the fear of Covid.

Mass hysteria is a real thing. It’s happened many times throughout history. YouTube has some interesting material if you care to look.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
