Teacher on leave after urging Facebook friends to ‘report illegal aliens’

WashingtonTimes—

A Washington state elementary school teacher has reportedly been placed on leave for a Facebook post urging people to report “illegal aliens” to Immigration and Customs Enforcement during Thursday’s nationwide “A Day Without Immigrants” strike.

The Prosser School District, which did not identify the teacher, said it is investigating a post that generated a number of “angry and concerning” emails, phone calls and visits from parents and community members.

“Earlier today, the District learned that a teacher at Keene-Riverview Elementary School had posted on her personal Facebook page a message that appears related to undocumented immigrants,” the district said in a press release Friday. “The post may be considered hostile and/or offensive on the basis of national origin.

  1. problem is congress has continually passed illegal alien laws since 1950 or so to pacify the voters, only to ignore or not enforce them. That is what brought us to this. And we sat here and allowed it to happen. Conservatives were calmed, oh goody, we have a law, then voted for the mccains and mcconnells of the DC cesspool who promptly ignored them.

    the law is the law. Unless you are a liberal.

  2. B….b….b…but, I thought that “see something, say something” mantra from the last administration meant we were supposed to report crimes and / or suspicious activity. This teacher saw flagrant crimes being committed by people and said that others should report the crimes they saw as well, and now she is put on leave for simply following the “see something, say something” rule?

    Where are all the Obama acolytes rising up in support of someone that is simply following their stated policies (like Janet Napolitano)? The school board should be tarred, feathered and run out of town on a rail (or deported).
