Latson’s lawyer, Thomas Elfers, told the school board: “These are the facts. He is not antisemitic. He believes the Holocaust is factual.”
Elfers also said Latson was being punished for a “poorly worded email”.
A handful of school staffers and parents supported Latson at the vote, with one teacher saying there’s “zero evidence showing wrongdoing” and that “this is a textbook example of a witch-hunt”.
If he believes the Holocaust is factual and said what he said, he should not be allowed within a hundred miles of school student.
However, I was not referring to his spineless and incompetent behavior but to the reservoir of nazism in this country, as evidenced by the parents' complaints.
Then there's plain old racism. https://www.ajc.com/news/buffalo-wild-wings-fires-managers-after-black-diners-asked-move-seats/OYP3x7pmni0LEuO6J5vAzN/
I note that Buffalo Wild Wings fired a shift manager. That's who makes the big bucks. I'd say a shift manager in Naperville is pulling down 18, maybe 20 large a year.
I had a curious encounter with an anti-Semite today. As I was entering a grocery store a woman rushed up and said, "Excuse me, where is the German food in this town?"
That is not an absurd question. This area was settled by Germans and some of the churches hold annual sauerbraten dinners as fundraisers. One was to be held this week in a town about seven or 8 miles away, i believe, but the closest restaurant that advertises itself as a German place is an hour away.
It occurred to me that perhaps she was asking about the church dinner, but I didn't know where that was, so again I said, "I don't know."
She had seemed a bit distracted all along and now said, "Is it east or west?"
This didn't make sense, because the town isn't big enough to have an east side and a west side. and when she immediately followed ed up by saying, "Is it East German or West German," I started to say, "Get away from me, crazy woman," but before I got out more than a couple of words, she said, "Bye, Jew," and ran off.
This sort of thing is rare with me and I wouldn't put it forward as an example of Basic American Values. I suspect the woman was unhinged in the usual sense as well as in the special sense that applies to all Jew haters.
But mental cases manifest themselves culturally. Distracted women accost strangers about German food because of something they picked up in their environment.
MAGA!
ReplyDeleteThis kind of stuff used to be quite open when I was younger. Now it's not respectable to be a public jew-hater.
ReplyDeleteDamned PC culture!
