quote:

Racist messages spray-painted on a fence outside a Metairie teacher’s home kicked up a controversy on social media and led the teacher’s school to fire her on Tuesday.


quote:

Other messages reading “Blue-n-white lives matter, too,” and “We all matter,” remained on the fence at the relatively busy corner of Green Acres Road and Camphor Street as of Tuesday evening. Those messages are not being treated as vandalism because another resident of the home apparently wrote them, the Sheriff's Office and parish said.


I have a family member that lives near this house, and over the weekend, while driving past it, I saw the "blue-n-white lives matter" and "we all matter" paintings, and I thought, oh, this isn't going to end well.

No, my relative wasn't the snitch.

I think anyone putting / painting messages like this, right now, is so stupid that they get what they get. But, this is all going to have a blowback at some point. These messages, in the grand scheme of things, aren't terrible, and aren't worth someone losing their job. I guarantee you, that school likely has people involved that are more 'racist" than this lady, but they are smart enough to keep it under wraps.

Edit: School says:

quote:

"We conducted a swift internal investigation of the allegations against a Kehoe-France employee implicated in a public display that involved deeply disturbing and inexcusable racist speech," the school's statement said in part.

How big of a dullard do you have to be to spray paint your own home?

I guess you have to ask the school admin.

A person can literally say that they hate n******, and they're still a "racist." In quotes. As in you're trying to deny the racist label. This is who you are.

Apparently the home owner painted a message then someone else came and painted another message and it snowballed from there.

Why should one be punished for what she wrote? And why is it stupid to state the truth?

Because you’re part of the problem. The homeowners didn’t put up the disparaging comment is how I read it..
