Quote: ozarkian wrote in post #11I agree with the teacher and school on this one. Write whatever he wants? I'm not sure that was the assignment. Obviously he went over the line of decency and good taste. And the thing is, he's not a young student so he should have known better!
Over the line of decency? and good taste?
yeah I agree, I'm just not certain at all that our culture knows what that is anymore.
Yes, TM, but this guy is 57. Too old to not know better or have been exposed to decency and good taste.
I don't know. It was a journal assignment over a period of time, not an easy and he was not reported until his editorial letter to a local paper regarding his defense of the second amendment.
Well trying a case via newspaper reports is impossible!!!
If you've ever been interviewed for a story you know what I'm talking about. It is ridiculous what comes into print vs what happened or what was said.
But based on what I have read on this guy, I do think he is a family nuisance, a creep and a moderately out of control intimidator, a bona fide outlier.
So zero tolerance and all, creating a threatening environment these days, one where ordinary people feel threatened is enough for a call to the office as a warning. If the behavior continues then action is warranted. We don't really know how this was handled, even if we read it in the newspaper ....sadly.
Half of America has bowed to Baal. Political expediency now drives all the libs decision making, NOT the moral appropriateness or even the legality of their actions.

You have to remember I am living in Massachusetts. We have crossed over that line long ago and all that is left of the word decency is a memory of the good old days.

No we don't, but the benefit of doubt does not go to the teacher or the school as far as Im concerned. Fact is he was vocal pro second amendment and libs hate that
I'll be glad to be wrong, but I won't side against him based on what I've read so far.
