Now, I have expressed my doubts about the story of OBL being killed; but if it happens that it is true. This here is not what I call “Helping.”:
The Video: (H/T to Running Scared)
The Story via Talking Points Memo:
A Texas high school teacher has been placed on administrative leave following an incident where he allegedly told a 9th grade Muslim girl in his algebra class “I bet that you’re grieving” on Monday following the death of Osama bin Laden.
According to one parent at Clear Brook High School in Houston who spoke about the incident to a local ABC affiliate, the teacher also said, “I heard about your uncle’s death.”
The parent said the student “understood that he was referring about Osama bin Laden being killed and was racially profiling her.”
The name of the alleged victim of the comment has not been released. She is being described as an “American-born girl of Muslim faith.”
The teacher allegedly showed no remorse after Muslim girl reacted to his comments, according to the parent (who requested anonymity from the ABC station because “she doesn’t want any retaliation against her daughter or the girl who experienced the inappropriate comment.”)
“The student ended up crying over what was said to her by the teacher and the teacher asked her why she was crying and another student said it was because of what you said earlier,” the parent told the station. “And his response was, oh, OK, and just kind of smirked and giggled and walked away.”
One thing I should make clear; I do not buy the Meme that all people in Texas are bigots, nor do I believe that all Conservatives are bigots either. I do, however, feel that this damned teacher should be fired. Because, basically, she said all Muslims are terrorists. It’s the same damned thing as saying, “All Blacks are criminals.” It is the SAME damned mindset.
Also, to everyone that happens to be a Conservative out there, and you just happen to read this blog. Let me kindly inform you of something. This sort of stupidity —- is not helping. Whenever someone does something stupid like this, Osama Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda are winning the war. This is because the overall mission of that Terrorist group, was to spark war between Christians and Muslims, that is what they want.
So, Alive or dead; doing this sort of stupidity — gives Osama what he wanted —- Division.
