And that local complaint was filed by another moron who can't think for shite..
You'd think you'd at least TRY to post accurately; from your own article:

According to the family, when the teacher was asked to give an example of equality, he said, “When you hang one black person, you’d have to hang them all. That is equality".
During the investigation, the teacher told administratorsthat statement was made in the contextSoutherners would respond to people who went to the South to promote equal rights for African-Americans. He said the Southerners would respond, “We treat them all equally. We hang them.”

The teacher WAS NOT defining equality as "hang em all".
He was describing the racism and hatred civil rights workers were met with when they came down south.
But I understand your commitment to half-truths. Carry on.

"The Confederate Flag" can mean this flag or that flag or that other flag. Stop being a little bitch.

I can guarantee you that this teacher was "retired" for a plethora of reasons and not simply because he displayed the Confederate Battle Flag in class. That was probably the straw that broke the camel's back.

I helped terminate three social studies teachers at a large suburban high school earlier this decade and each one had several years' worth of evidence on file. Schools tend to move too slowly in termination and not quickly for one reason.

That's the flag the Dumocrats will be flying when President Trump's first 100 days are over.

Of course it's pure conjecture, if your sole source this article, which couldn't to link the the local news stories. It also coincidentally misspelled his name so you can't find the local stories without the correct spelling.

But of you read the local news stories (linked on previous page), you'll see there was a formal complaint files against him regarding "hanging of all blacks equally."

Now if you go by the complaint, it appears somewhat racist. If you go by his story, he was just providing an example of what "Southerners" would say, so he's presented a stereotypical and insulting view of Southerners.

So one one hand, he could be racist; on the other hand, he could have bigoted views of the South. At the very least, a history teacher should be able to provide a better example, especially since, you know, the whole civil rights movement was based on equality.

But of course, he can't give the example of the Southerners argument of equality, as if there weren't numerous supreme Court cases and laws dealing with "separate but EQUAL."

Let's assume this is the accurate story, and that seems quite plausible anyways.

So you think it's appropriate to tell students that, "Southerners viewed equality as hanging them all?" So he essentially generalized an exteme viewpoint to the Southerners; now that sounds like ignore liberal indoctrination.

Beyond that, as a History Teacher, he thinks of that then, you know, a major historical movement and the whole idea of Seperate But EQUAL. That's just terrible teaching.

You link an article which:

1. Doesn't spell his name right (can't Google him for more information unless the name is correct.)
2. Doesn't provide any link or citation to the local stories, even though their briefly mentioned.
3. Doesn't include information about a related incident and complaint two months earlier.

Talk about half-truths.
