    The Grafton Police Department, north of Milwaukee, has not identified the seventh grade teacher they say told the students that he had 17 guns in his basement and that he wasn't afraid to use them. :fuckin-deserve:

    The John Long Middle School teacher, who police say is Jewish, was angered by the drawings and also threatened to send his daughter to students' homes with a baseball bat, :cure-for-fascism:

    :jesus-christ:

    Dude wanted to go Inglorious Bastards on the kids.

    Still should have been a teaching moment. Kids and all. But what a reflection on the parents of these brats.

      threatened to send his his daughter

      He was our last hope.

      No, there is another.

      Maybe this is a silly distinction but the fact that he threatened to send his daughter with a baseball bat instead of go himself makes me go “Nah man did nothing wrong”

      Like, yeah, threatening a middle schooler with physical violence for drawing a swastika is probably not great. You shouldn’t threaten children, you’re an adult. But he’s threatening to send someone on their own level!

      Moments where its appropriate to threaten to kill kids are probably rare at best. I recommend you don't do that, even if they're being shitheads. The other rule he broke was forgetting that it's only ok to make threats of gun violence (implied by open carrying or explicit by actually verbalizing your intent to shoot someone) if you're furthering some rightwing goal.

      I've seen teenagers. Trying to be earnest or gentle often just invites mockery, especially if you're talking to them in a group (since being genuine can come off uncool). Sometimes it can get under people's skin.

        Exactly, and they often know exactly what they're doing and know they can get away with it because some lib is going to go "they're children! they're children!" if you say or do anything in response.

        He shoulda slapped the shit out of those kids. Not the first time its happened and the cops would be more likely to charge him for that than some abstract terroristic style kinetic threat that theyll try and fail to give him 143920809548594032 years in burger hell for

          Yeah this will go down as some epic fucking school legend where these edgy badasses got their Jewish teacher in trouble because THEY drew swastikas. I expect that school will see a lot more swastikas from now on

    I taught in a "minority majority" school that had so few white students, they couldn't use them as a demographic group for anything because you could narrow down each student, basically. We're talking single digits, count on one hand white students in a school of 1.5k. I liked it there, once I moved to a majority white area, and subbing for a while, I decided that kind of teaching wasn't for me

    "But then he picked up the piece of paper and went on a ramble about how that's bad and that's a disgrace to his people. He started mentioning the N-word and how that was worse than writing the N-word on the wall." yeah gonna disagree with him there. still did nothing wrong.

      Part of me is thinking this teacher is also a zionist and this really just boils down to :fash-infighting:

      ehhh maybe. I sure wouldn't bring that up, kinda cringe, but, it's arguable- it's definitely on the same tier, both are a serious threat of violence, etc etc. I can't really decide if I agree but it seems not crazy at least

    Social Fascism moment.

    Thälmann und Thälmann vor allen, Deutschlands unsterblicher Sohn.

    My criticism of the KPD is that it wasn't ruthless enough. My criticism of Thälmann is that he A. wasn't "rootless and cosmopolitan" (1!) enough and B. enjoyed going outside and fighting Nazis a little too much (2).

    (1!) cf. a certain 99-year-old New Yorker

    (2) Can't think or fight fascists when you're dead
