    Not to stereotype, but we are shocked a teacher named : Mohammad Jehad Ahmad might support Hamas and harbor hatred of Israel?

    Debra LaFave coming immediately to mind. Although what she did was clearly illegal it still cracked me up when the student with whom she had a sexual relationship was referred to as "the victim". Just my opinion and speaking only for myself, I think that every straight male student would have loved to have been victimized by Deb. By the way there was a real victim; it was he husband. In case anyone may have forgotten since the relationship for which she convicted occurred almost 20 years ago Ive added a pic.

    I think a middle school kid being statutorily raped multiple times by a teacher is a real victim, whether he felt like a victim at the time or not. But I understand there’s a different standard practically if the adult is a woman, heterosexual, and at least semi attractive.

    There's only a certain group of people that doesn't trust teachers. I think we all know who we're talking about

    Righties don’t trust teachers but they fully trust the police, who are even more corrupt and slimier than teachers. Lord make it make sense LOL

    Some of us “righties”don’t trust any of them. Maybe a better explanation is the phrase “trust but verify”.

    City's post above is useful. Many of our "famed" institutions - such as Harvard - had significant student groups protesting Israel and defending Hamas' recent attack on civilians.

    Does education mean you're smart?
    Does education mean you're wise?
    It depends on what and how you're being educated.

    Righties never express doubt for police the way they do for teachers and politicians. Very weird loyalty they have to that band of corrupt misfits.
