[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would you be supportive if the teacher took a knee?[/quote] No.[/quote] While I agree it is not appropriate for a public employee to take the knee in the course of doing his or her job (or really to discuss personal political opinions in the course of performing their public job duties), [b]I would hope the first poster here was not trying to create an equivalence between a student's right to protest and a teacher's role as a public employee (versus as a private citizen).[/b] I would whole-heartedly endorse either acting as a private citizen to express their concerns in a lawful way. For students, that could involve taking the knee or staying seated during the pledge. For a teacher, that could involve staying seated at a game that they attended as a private cititzen. [/quote] LOL I believe PP did see both roles as entirely equivalent. [/quote]
