I don't see what is worse, teachers telling kids to vote for somebody who wants them to keep working, or owners/CEO's of large companies telling their employees that they had "better" vote a certain way or else their jobs might go away.
How deplorable only one side does this.....
I don't pay someone to shove sunshine up my ass. But I'll be happy to listen to someone's admonitions for a paycheck.
And using children?
I still don't see what is wrong, although I probably wouldn't have talked to students about the presidential election but rather focused on the Superintendent of Edu and Governor of Indiana.
And threatening people about their jobs isn't cool, period.
Fine. You send your children over to my house and let me have them 8 hours a day. You won't mind if I fill their little heads with something that is in opposition to your worldview.
Jeez, relax. Teachers were too busy fearing for their jobs under Tony "not the cool one" Bennett and his testing and merit based pay to campaign much.
Besides, you haven't met my 2nd child, he has various food allergies that make him lose his mind and be ultra-violent. I'll be sure to not send that list with when I send him....
I'll relax when people like you stop thinking that you can have my children.

You are ignorant if you can't see the difference.
Yes, I know, your opinion means a lot to me.

Why in the world is a band teacher discussing politics with students? That's a very odd way to teach band.
It's not the role of public education to reinforce whatever worldview each child's parents happen to hold. That's not education; it's indoctrination.

I'd be fine if they remained neutral. The problem is that they don't.
