A North Carolina high school teacher reportedly has been suspended with pay after she was captured on video shouting at a student who questioned President Obama and suggesting he could be arrested for criticizing a sitting president.
The Salisbury Post reported Monday that district school officials suspended the teacher in the course of their investigation into the incident.
The newspaper, which first reported on the YouTube video, did not identify the teacher in question, who is reportedly on staff at North Rowan High School. The video does not show faces, but the heated argument in the classroom can clearly be heard.
"Do you realize that people were arrested for saying things bad about Bush?" the teacher said toward the end of the argument, telling the student, "you are not supposed to slander the president."

WITH PAY, yeah I am sure she is upset, just before summer getting out early. Great system we have
This is the kind of trash teaching our children! No wonder so many parents want to home-school their own children. It's one thing to encourage them not to do something but to out right lie to them is another. They should fire the teacher immediately.
The teacher and school should be sued for violating the student's civil rights.
Needs to be banned from classrooms and restrained from being around anyone under 21 - permanently. This type of ignorance should not be rewarded or tolerated.
1:52 I agree but we will lose 80% (conservative estimate) of our teachers if we do that.
Most, if not all are in the tank for the Democratic socialists now in power. Exactly why do you think we have 2 generations of imbeciles walking the streets incapable of communicating well enough to hold down a simple job?
LIBERAL teachers.
Yes, I agree she is ignorant and bias. She needs to write a letter stating she is sorry for her racial tone towards white children; suspended w/o pay for 30 days, and attend cultural diversity program-taught by White Folks, and out of court settlement to those white kids for $500,000 dollars each kid affected by her racial demeanor
2:13 - That would be a good thing; maybe the schools would start teaching again.
sith pay?? that's just a vacation.
2:13p, Well said!! There are so many teachers, and I use the term loosely, just like the one in the news. They graduate from state colleges that cater to minorities and just push them through. Most of them can barely speak the English language, let alone teach basic courses to children. Then they get "tenure" and their job is done. Then they collect a big pension, medical benefits, etc., that WE are paying for. I am hoping to hit the lottery so I can send all my grandchildren to private schools where education is a top priority!!
The teacher was bullying.
Whoa... this is a video of ONE teacher. There are a lot of GOOD teachers out there!!! Get involved in schools and you will have the pleasure to meet the men and women who work from 7am to 5pm everyday (plus at home on nights and weekends) in order to help children with unsupportive and uninvolved parents succeed in life. Stop complaining... actions speak more than words.
SPeaking of teaching, do you know they hire an Ebonics interpertor to translate essays at UMES so the teachers can grade the papers. REALLY, ebonics, so spelling and grammar mean nothing. What a freakin joke.
if i spoke ill about my president, from 1962-1973, my teacher would have spanked me, and i would have deserved it!!!!
from 62-73 teacher taught from a book not just their liberal agenda.
Reminds me of Ms. Brooks, my old civics teacher at Parkside. Such an awful, racist human being! Yet she was a tenure? Boggles my mind!
