Plinkey posted:Don't kids still not have first amendment protection in school? I thought that was a thing? 1A protections are not as broad within school (the most obvious example to my mind is that dress codes are allowed within certain limits), but the right to not say the pledge has been made pretty explicit (West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette ).

If you’re a loving teacher, something you should be very aware of is that black americans cannot “go back” because they were involuntarily ripped from their homes and prevented from even telling their kids where they came from.

Not sure about there, but around here you only need a bachelor's degree to substitute teach. You get like... a thirty page packet of guidelines that boils down to 'don't hit the kids and follow the absent teacher's instructions'. That's it. No class, no interview. I'm not condoning what the sub did, but I'm not surprised that they were unprepared.

Our homeroom teacher was pretty much 'do whatever during the pledge it's not up to me, just be quite and non-disruptive' and one day we got an over the top ex-solider something in his 60s sub that blew up at half the class that stayed sitting. Yelled for all of us to get up and respect the flag, everyone did except one kid and the teacher got physical with the kid and dragged him to the principles office. Then the sub had to come back and appologize to the class. e: He wrote of bunch of right-wring screed op-ed in the local paper for a while after that.

I'd assume some combination of: a divorce, refusal to pay taxes, a bad deal from the 2000s secure fencing act, maybe a bad insurance settlement or something, and the market crash in 2009, all of which gets inextricably tied in his mind to the illegal, invading browns. I like to imagine he threw his life savings into that wall gofundme and rationalizes it as having had to because those dastardly illegals must be stopped. Like those nuts that sent everything they had to tv preachers because they said the end of the world was close and they could buy salvation

It's weird though right, she fled a "dictatorial regime" which "didn't tolerate dissent" came to the US and immediately tried to enforce a dictatorial regime which doesn't tolerate dissent, except apparently this tyranny is the good one. It blows my mind how often the victims of persecution seem to come to the conclusion that it's not so much persecution that's bad as making sure you're the one doing the persecuting.

jobson groeth posted:I live on the other side of the planet to the USA and can still tell you that your constitution protects children from being forced to recite the pledge at school. If you really loved the constitution like you said then your would know this too. Maybe, if the case goes up through the system to that point but I assure you there are plenty of schools throughout the country where all the kids without a note from their parents are disciplined for not standing and reciting it. The religious exemption thing for Jehovah's Witnesses and whatnot is pretty well established but 'don't feel like it' will cause problems in a lot of places. Especially like this with a substitute - there isn't much of a vetting process for subs, it's entirely possible she legit had no idea (not suggesting that makes any of this OK) e: whoops there's a whole other page!

I assume there's some kind of background check but I know when he got laid off my brother was subbing within a week or two of filling out paperwork.
