Teacher Tells Student He Could Be Arrested for Talking Badly About Obama

Last Monday, a high school student in North Carolina engaged his social studies teacher in a heated debate about politics and the two leading presidential candidates. During the exchange, the teacher (an obvious Obama supporter) got very angry with the student and accused him of disrespecting the president. She even went so far as to tell the boy that he could be jailed for speaking ill of Obama.

One guess as to the political leanings of that teacher...

  1. A teacher who graduated, at least, with a Bachelor's degree.

    A teacher of "Social Studies" who should know the law.

    A teacher who seems completely clueless about what the law say --- still has a job; incredible.
