Parkland Student Kyle Kashuv Subjected To Intimidation By School Admins & Police

[Trigger Time]

No, slapped across the mouth and THEN fired. I'm not one for violence, but the occasional open handed slap to get their attention is sometimes warranted.

Bingo. There are still things in this world that are worth defending and if need be facing arrest over. Make em count

Well. Everthing is literally Hitler.

Calling someone Hitler is the new "cry wolf".

Im pretty young.. and I would state that MOST of my teachers political afiliations were known openly. Or at least it was not hard to figure out. This is highschool im speaking of and it wasnt THAT long ago.

In the words of Mr. Dylan, the times they are a changin. 1982 seems like just the other day, but in some ways it was a millennia.

That's 36 years ago! That's dang near a millennia. Think of everything that exists now, that were impossible to even conceive, or the stuff of science fiction, back then.

Exactly.

I was in high school in the 1970s. I’d be hard pressed to guess any of my teachers’ political leanings. Things were pretty divided in the 1960s, and early 70s during that cultural revolution. In the 60s I was too young to be politically aware. But I remember enough to know what’s different about this political revolution.

The 60s and early 70s were more violent. But schools, the media, and business pretty much remained neutral outwardly. Contrasted with now, the most influential people are very willing to overtly use their platforms as tools to further their ideologies. Teachers in K-12, professors, administrators in education; newscasters, reporters, pundits, editors, in the media; CEOs down to individual contributors in business, especially social media companies, are all willing to use their positions to openly further their goals.

And Chip is right. Tenure would not have save a teachers ass for calling a student a Nazi like that. The teacher who ranted about Kyle isn’t fit to teach.

That’s the problem with aging. The older you get the more watered down a year makes in perception of time.

Ditto. But since I was at a rural Howard County school, I doubt much nonsense would have been tolerated. It seemed like they were more concerned with math, science, literature.... than political indoctrination back then...

Child of the 50's/60's. Graduated in 68. Dress codes were strictly adhered to. Hair length, clothing, shoes you name it and there was a code. It was followed. Period. There seemed to be an order to things we have lost sight of these days. Teachers were for the most part respected and listened to. They also did not attempt to indoctrinate us. They taught. Not every one of them were good at the job as with anything but school was a safe and orderly place.

If a teacher called a student a NAZI he/she would be shown the door with great haste.

It's wrong.

Has it replaced "RACISM!" for now?

 

[chipbennett]

In a sane world, a teacher calling a student in the school "Hitler" would be grounds for immediate firing.

Special shoutout to the INGOer who (edit) neutral-repped me, claiming that my standards are "all over the place" for making this statement, because (for some reason?) Kashuv's account isn't trustworthy: a second student now corroborates the original student's comments:

UPDATE: A second member of Pittman's class has now told The Daily Wire:

I was in class on April 25th with Gregory Pittman and near the end of class the discussion led to Kyle Kashuv's tweet about going to the gun range. Pittman expressed that he could not speak badly about Kyle because he was specifically told by administration not to. Pittman began talking about what an ass Kyle was and called him "the next Hitler" and said that he was "dangerous" and something needed to be done about him.

(Nevermind the fact that my statement included no assumptions about this specific teacher making any specific comments, but rather what should happen if the statements were true.)

Gee, imagine that.

I was expecting something like that to be the case based on his late name (sounds Russian to me). People who throw Hitler and Nazi comparisons around so freely rarely stop to think that the person they are attempting to marginalize may have been affected by, you know, the real Hitler and real Nazis.

Now here's the kicker: I'll bet the school compels the teacher to apologize, but only because of this revelation (assuming it's factual). In the absence of it, my money says they would just let it happen, but the political correctness/social justice hierarchy has just been invoked unexpectedly by an injection of reality and they'll have to "do" something to maintain their institutional SJW creds.

You didn't put in bold the section you were responding to, so someone needs to chasten you...

According to the teacher's tweets, the school has already instructed him to stop tweeting at Kashuv. Of course, he takes that to mean no "@" tweets. He still talks about Kashuv in his tweets. Regardless: it seems that either the school has at least a modicum of understanding of teacher-student interaction propriety - or possibly, they are merely aware of their liability.

You are correct, however since my GAD (Give A Damn) broke a while back, I'm more or less immune to chastening.

Sounds like CYA move from the school's lawyer who knew it where such stupidity inevitably leads.

Oh, by the way. You, Chip, are a Hitler-like Nazi and a racist. It had to be said.

More of an "in conjunction with " thing. When they run out of names they resort to violence.
