20-Year Catholic High School Teacher Gets Fired for Questioning Whether George Floyd Couldn't Breathe
2021-03-26
[Right Scoop] In Ohio, a teacher was recently axed over issues concerning the death of George Floyd.

As reported by The Columbus Dispatch, Bishop Ready High theology instructor Deborah DelPrince shared her thoughts on what caused George’s May 25th passing beneath the knee of Minnesota Officer Derek Chauvin.

According to Deborah — as expressed during a virtual class meeting on February 24th — it’s not so certain the man couldn’t breathe.

Deborah was remarking upon a student’s screen — it featured a photo of LeBron James sporting a shirt with the phrase "I can’t breathe."

#12   Too bad Floyd neglected to mention the drug overdose to the cops.

If memory serves, he did tell the cops he had put fentanyl up his bunghole.
Don't quite recall the slang term he used. (not my scene, if you know what I mean)

#11  #9 Is that why he was given a golden casket?

Floyd was doomed by his own choice before the police were even called.

As I recall, they noticed and called an ambulance.

#6  Child #4 attended Catholic school near Bishop. Capitalism and Conservatism flourished while liberalism was tolerated. Good place for my kid. Seems like all employees were on short term contracts.

#4  Catholic school teachers don't have tenure. At least, I have never heard of them having it. Private schools are often stupid, but not THAT stupid.

#3  Wokeness trumps all tenure rules evidently.
