HempsteadSchool where the teachers are arrested for sexually abusing children in the school and the school superintendent is under investigation. BetsyDeVosED what are you doing with all this corruption in one school district

With a predominately black student body those beast kNew what they were doing . Fire them all! not reward with paid vacation

Wow....and they want to give teachers guns....

It is beyond comprehension that such a display could even enter a normal person’s mind?

Solutioneer72 Basically a slap on the wrist with some vacation time.

Teachers are not supposed to be STUPID!

Same

Another stunt by Jussie Smollett

Who does this?

Intent people! There are SO many other situations where there are actual racists and systemic racism. Focus on those or you will look like the Little Boy Who Cried Wolf. This is a lapse in judgement by a few teachers. If I saw this on a shopping webpage I would laugh at it.

No sense of humor

Are these teachers from Virginia?

Omg

I really don't get this. Are they saying that they want to hang themselves because of some of the students or are they saying the kids should go hang themselves? I get the link to lynchings but honestly I can't fathom what would possess them to put this up.

Wow...Paid leave after ☝🏽?

Why are they being paid?

MSM are working for Russia and Democrats! Working to destroy America !

These teachers should be fired immediately!!!!!! This stuff must be stopped!!!!

They need to be fired! Joke or no joke, they lack maturity and judgement which are required when charged with caring for other peoples children.

They should not be paid while on leave. They should be fired.

Why are they on PAID leave? They should be fired

Who would be this dumb ? Doesn’t anybody have any common sense anymore

Paid leave? Not fired?

DaveRodecap It may not be the children that associate the message, but NEVER is this a way to ENCOURAGE any sort of positive response. SHAME. WE CAN DO BETTER.

MrAndyNgo please keep an eye on this as another possible fake hate crime.

These teachers should never work again.

Awwww HELL NO!!! StopTheHate stopracism

How did I end up following NBC

Those teachers need to be forced back to college for history lessons.

WTF... this was actually done by teachers!?

Should not be paid leave.

I want to see their voting record.

Should be fired not on leave

Were they dimms?

'The Base.'

WOW!!!!

Calm down people. There isn't a body under the nose. Sheesh

WTF white ppl!! U don’t know NOOSES R offensive?!? 😡 “The noose images were part of a larger collage ... at Roosevelt Middle School, which has a student body that is almost entirely black and Hispanic. The collage showed two nooses and also featured the words 'ha' and 'yes.'

WTF were they teaching⁉️

Paid leave? They should be kept after school and placed in detention where they’ll write, I deserved to get fired, 10,000 times each on a blackboard!🤬

Same reason why white NFL players didn’t support Colin Kaepernick, because they don’t believe that cops target blacks so they don’t see that there is a problem with police murdering blacks.

They should and probably will be fired!

My employer who owns CNA Investments in Dallas, GA tried to put a Guillotine noose over my head to demonstrate how it can decapitate a head.

Community's opinion here could be political. I want to know what those teachers are saying in their noose message. Let us all joined hands, in the name of Jesus Christ, to treat ALL humans with dignity and respect, and under our constitution punish the law breakers. Thanks NBC.

They are recruiting very early

So they get paid to leave... that’ll show them! What posses someone to hang nooses around a class full of minority kids? That’s some fucking racist bullshit right there. But it’s okay, we pay our teachers instead of disciplining them.

Teachers are the best. Listen up students. Pay attention and respect.

Why are they getting paid leave?

Solutioneer72 Those teachers should be in jail awaiting trial.

Real or a hoax. Maybe they did it to raise attention. Jussied

Over-sensitive, flake responses.

Should have been fired

MIDDLE SCHOOL they have cell phones tooo..so they will take pic n show it to mommy n daddy!!!

*Paid leave! You terrorize our children and get a vacation. Israelites

A noose is no joke, EVER. Whether you've had a relative or friend that was lynched, or had a loved one commit suicide through hanging, you know that this is something that is never funny.

They should all be fired. Disgusting

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 power + deceit + division + conflict + SaulAlinsky + Democrats = SOCIALISM. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 Don’t be a UsefulIdiot! MAGA

Terminate them. They are part of the problem in this country. It is reprehensible for children to have to see. Please terminate them.

kkk everywhere~

GermanT61734220 Paid leave rewarded with vacation?

The noose does not discriminate based on race, creed, or color. The noose is the universal symbol of death, and thankfully is more often used as a prank during the more scary parts of the year.

Disgusting.

And they teach our kids. No wonder the world is becoming dumber

Awful just awful.

I wonder who had access to the classroom 🤔

Welcome to America

So a racism vacation

Omgosh I hope they were just extremely stupid about suggesting teachers wished to hang themselves going back to school and not more Trump inspired racist BS

People are so people.

Crazy how teachers get the same punishment for this as cops do for killing innocent unarmed people 🤦🏽‍♂️

poor example..

Now are we sure about this we don't want to turn out like Jussie again lmao

No good! 🤦‍♀️

yyyyYYYIIIIIKES

Huh?

HOAX!

What were they thinking😯

Trump has enabled racist to come out of the woodwork like cockroaches.

Paid leave? How about unpaid leave until they fired? And than no pension...

So did the teachers make this or was this something students taped to the wall?

Possibly a felony.
