Im not saying its right, but after cycling to work past a school I can understand…
23? She’s a kid herself ffs!
Substitute teacher story: at my high school, a sub teacher called Mrs. West (who every student agreed was the Wicked Bitch of the West, absolute cunt of an old woman) got fired for telling a black student, “my grandparents owned your great grandparents.” I don’t remember if that kid was acting up or not, it was horrible, but we were glad to see her go.
Maybe at your current age but that’s pretty old from a 16yo kids perspective.
I don’t support anyone doing anything like this, it’s pathetic and unhinged, not to mention just fucking weird.
That being said, I get it.
You get being a racist cunt to kids? Jesus fuck seek help dude.
It’s a joke, dipshit.
I don’t get it. If you’re that annoyed by kids then why would you intentionally put yourself in a room with a bunch of them? I don’t like loud kids either but that’s exactly why I’m not a teacher or pretending to be one.
Somebody has to tell the little fuckers what’s what.
Some do it for the money, some do it for the love of the game.
We had a first grade teacher who grabbed a kid by the back of the hair and repeatedly slammed his head off the desk. Happened a few times. Tied another kid to his chair and didn’t let him go to lunch. She’d slam her apple pointer inches from your face, at least until she broke it one day.
But it was first grade. We knew it wasn’t right, but just not how wrong it was.
Why a POS like that ever wanted to teach kids is beyond me.
Happened a few times.
Uh… What? That’s the part that just doesn’t compute for me…
I ate in a certain teacher’s room during lunch in middle school. I was well liked by teachers because I enjoyed school and behaved well. My best friend was a trouble maker because of unmedicated ADHD.
One day he comes to the classroom during lunch to see me, and the teacher goes “Oh hell no” and drags him out of the room. Confused, I go out into the hallway and see him dragging my friend down the hallway by the ear, screaming “You’re useless, and you’ll never amount to anything! Everyone knows you are garbage! Just give up!”
It felt weird because they were so nice to me, and the unmitigated aggression seemed to come out of nowhere. I didn’t understand for years that some people are just broken inside. I did stop eating there.
Anyway my friend is a successful chemical engineer now.
Yeah, ADHD is basically a cheat code for getting bullied by teachers. I had some who were great, but I can’t think of a year until high school I didn’t have at least one who clearly had a problem with me

I mean… props to her dedication I guess. I wish I could care that much about things.
Let her live her best life.
Sounds like she was hurling racial slurs and segregating them.
So many people revealing how they actually feel about children here. Gross.
It was a fucking joke. It’s obviously not OK to do do any of what she did.
The only comments in here when I first came was people celebrating this woman abusing children.
“It’s just a joke, bro” only goes so far these days.
Yours was the only one I had seen actually saying something about the story in question when I first came across this thread.
It made me feel kinda gross that that was the first place most peoples’ minds went to.
This community is “Not The [email protected]”. It is not really for serious shit. If you don’t recognize a comment saying “living her best life” about someone who is abusive towards kids as a non-serious comment, then sadly you need some sort of help getting the stick out of your butthole.
Also, just to be clear and make sure that you do not take this comment seriously: I do not mean that you have an actual stick inside your butthole. In fact, I have no opinion on your butthole, like at all.
Sure it’s NotTheOnion, but that doesn’t make the articles posted here any less serious. I’d say this community highlights the downright absurdity that is modern society, but that doesn’t mean the stories are lighthearted fun.
tone indicators would be very, very, very helpful
especially when the other comment here was just “Queen.”
I can’t time travel. I won’t see comments that are made later than mine as I type it in. And regardless of the certain oneway direction of time, I still wouldn’t be responsible for any other comments that I didn’t make.
Also, no. Get the gist of a “Crazy news from all over the world” community. I’m not going to put a “THIS IS A JOKE” in front of my obvious jokes. Some people on the very edge of the spectrum might not get it, but that’s just a price I’m willing to pay.
And that other op is still kinda defending their original comment too.
Don’t bother. Velma is a pro at getting offended.
With so many jokes about how “consensual and willing” 14 year old girls are, how could I not?
This place can unfortunately host some terrible fucking takes. It needs some balance.
Ive been on this platform for years and I don’t think I’ve seen that ever wtf are you smoking.
I’ve seen that particular conversation twice now as a matter of fact. I’m not the only one either.
There’s a lot of sexism and such that’s allowed to flourish here and no one says anything.
That’s why I say something now.
people revealing how they actually feel about children here. Gross.
I’m sorry you feel children are gross, but you be you.
Was she or it sounds like she was?
The article says she was.
Sounds like she was, then.
Queen.
She hurled racial slurs at children.
Who hasn’t?
Maybe she’s “Taking it back”
Jones, a former student at the school, is said to have scouted the premises for a week before carrying out the stunt, getting past security by blending in with other students.
She then accused of returning on a day when eight teachers were absent and ‘got lucky’ as only seven substitutes had signed in, before going to a classroom set up by another teacher, who stayed with her for 20 minutes.
However, after that teacher left she allegedly proceeded to organise students by race and gender, insult them using racial slurs and derogatory statements, and use explicit language — as well as playing loud rap music and bragging about being OK with going to jail.
A 16-year-old boy in the class told authorities that she also called one student ‘fat boy’ and told two white pupils that ‘they were the type to start school shootings’, Independent reports.
Meanwhile Fox6 News Milwaukee reported that Jones was said to have asked if any of the students had a vape or marijuana as the class ‘was so f****** lame and annoying’.
She was reportedly escorted from the school after students raised the alarm and principal Doreen Badillo became aware of what was going on.
So much security theater just to allow someone like this to waltz into a classroom to openly berate children.
Who tf has this kind of time on their hands for such petty bullshit?
Seems like the childfree communities are leaking…
Childfree communities hate parents. Children are just their poor choices manifest.
That’s very idealist of you, and that’s how it should be, but it’s not always that way
It actually is nearly always that way until parents come in to those spaces and start deliberately misinterpreting things and claiming the straw men they’ve built are saying hateful things about kids. Most parents see hate in any refusal to glaze them for their choice to become parents. And they nearly all see hate in not being impressed by or wanting to coo over their little vacation souvenirs.
I don’t have kids, likely never will given the state of the world, but the absolute vile shit I’ve seen from child free communities ensures I’ll never use that label.
Ok. Whatever you have to tell yourself.
My partner has been in some child free communities and i saw a lot of people hating on kids. Most of the stories she’d relay were about kids being annoying with minimal mention of their parents.
My old boss was super into those groups and would post just vile, hateful stuff about kids.
I do think that child free groups are mostly about hating kids, in practice.
I wouldn’t have nearly as much disdain for those communities if they focused on bad parents instead of attacking children.
This is easily the third time today you’ve said something correct and insightful and been downvoted to hell.
The fuck is wrong with Lemmy?
The fuck is wrong with Lemmy?
This is a male-dominated space and some of them really don’t like outspoken women.
working for a school district it’s pretty strange it got that far. I get yelled at if I cross a campus and I don’t have a badge on
So much security theater just to allow someone like this to waltz into a classroom to openly berate children.
I don’t see the “so much” security theater you’re referring to, and it seems like she got very lucky. She appeared young enough to blend in with the other students but also appeared old enough to be a substitute teacher and had attended the high school not that long ago (and conveniently lived right across the street).
During her scouting the week prior, she “heard other staff in the main office talking about the substitute teacher agency and told the secretary she was a substitute”, so she had that established ahead of time. On the day she went into the classroom, eight of the approximately 70 teachers were absent, and one of those positions happened to be unfilled by a sub (something she couldn’t possibly have foreseen).
Incidentally, unrelated to your comment, here’s the local news source instead of the trash tabloid Metro.
Do you know what schools have implemented in the effort to cut down on school shootings?
That’s the security theater I’m talking about. The security theater that should have caught this woman. If she had a gun, there would be a lot of dead students right now.
If she had a gun, there would be a lot of dead students right now.
Milwaukee public schools use metal detectors.
This video specifically shows what Rufus King (this high school) does. You’re assuming her having a gun wouldn’t have changed this, but it would’ve. Because part of that “so much security theater” is scanning people who enter the school.
Do you know what schools have implemented in the effort to cut down on school shootings?
Yes, see the video above.
And per the school’s own admission, teachers recognized her as a former student and didn’t say anything at the time.
There’s also many ways around metal detectors, especially when the school shows that they don’t follow protocols anyway.
I mean a former student definitely can be a substitute teacher
And per the school’s own admission, teachers recognized her as a former student and didn’t say anything at the time.
If you’re drawing that from:
Since our first communication, our initial investigation determined that this individual involved was a former student recognized by staff. [emphasis mine] She was not a substitute teacher. We did involve our Milwaukee Police Department school resource officers (SROs) the day that this occurred. The district’s Title IX coordinator was also notified. In addition to any police actions resulting from this situation, the district is continuing with its own investigation.
It seems extremely clear that what the letter is saying isn’t that the staff saw her impersonating a substitute and looked the other way; it’s that once the students reported her, staff who worked there were able to identify her as a former student.
If this isn’t what you were talking about and I’m missing something, I apologize.
Schools are more secure than airports. It’s not just theatre.
She got away with a lot because people did recognize that she belonged there and she was unarmed. And she still got lucky.
Her lawyers have said she suffers from bipolar disorder
I was waiting for it, and there it is, very last line of the article.
This is clearly the behaviour of someone havinga mental health crisis
Agree to disagree. This seems like perfectly reasonable behavior.
😂
Jesus Christ. Lady we all hate kids but not enough to make an identity out of it.
It seems if she was being honest about why she did it, she’d have said she enjoyed an opportunity to be racist.
Most people I know that hate kids make that their sole identity and personality.
Nah, just outliers.
Everyone hates kids.
Most people like a kid. A kid is cute.
Kids? Nope. Hell no. Ask any k-5 teacher.
I don’t believe that for one second. Your comment is in reaction to seeing a c/childfree post once every couple weeks. I know because every angry response in those threads is someone (almost certainly a parent) using those exact words. People barely make hobbies they’re actively obsessed with their personalities. People do not make their dislikes into personalities. Sure. Like 100 weirdos ever have. Not worth talking about though, let alone pretending it’s everyone who doesn’t like kids. I don’t like most kids and yet I barely ever even talk about that fact. Literally only ever comes up when some parent (the actual problem) is letting their little shit behave poorly.
“Welcome, newcomers. The tradition of Festivus begins with the airing of grievances. I got a lot of problems with you people! And now you’re gonna hear about it!”
“My son tells me your company STINKS!!”
Creative but still a terrible person to insult children to their faces.
For real. Gotta make fun of those little snots behind their backs.
Shits*
Idk man one of my kids is really stubborn about poop. I’ve seen this kid take shits with the girth and length of an Arizona Iced Tea can. I don’t know how the fuck he manages, but nothing about those shits are little.
Lmfao
With increasing restrictions on minors using social media, assholes have to get creative
I’m going to walk into my organisation and pose as an executive and cuss out everyone there. Thanks for the idea.
Jones is scheduled for a preliminary court hearing on October 20 and, according to the Independent, could face a maximum 21 years in prison if she is convicted.
WHAT? 21 years just for pretending to be a teacher and hurling some slurs? Even murderers often get less.
Jeffrey E. Likely had less and actually harmed kids.
Slightly off-topic, but Epstein actually was a high school teacher, back in 1974 when he was 21. He taught high school kids math at the Dalton School in Manhattan, hired by the guy that ran it, Donald Barr, despite Epstein’s lack of a college degree. (Donald Barr was the father of Bill Barr, the US Attorney General under Trump 1.0, and also the author of a science fiction novel about a planet ruled by oligarchs who engage in child sex slavery. You can’t make it up.)
But Epstein only lasted the first academic year. His behavior was so sketchy that they were about to fire him at Dalton, when one of his student’s parents got him a new gig at Bear Stearns. I have never run across anything substantive on the specifics of why he was in trouble at Dalton, just rumors of non-professional behavior and too much attention paid to specific female students.
