A photo of four elementary school educators in Southern California smiling as they pose with a rope fashioned into a noose has led to their and the school principal's suspension and sparked outrage among some black parents.
"The Palmdale School District holds all employees to the highest standards and expectations," Maldonado said in a statement to NBC News on Friday."We will not stop until we find out exactly what did occur. We will not tolerate this type of behavior in our schools." “I feel like he’s not safe here," Misty Evans said of her son, a student at Summerwind."It brings you back to slavery days."“My son is leaving today, and he’s not coming back to this school until they are fired," Dillard said., at 58.6 percent; whites make up 22.1 percent, and blacks 12.5 percent.
Education no common sense. People need to stop posting some things if they like their job.
RevJJackson Would they be smiling if they hung themselves.
Why does a noose automatically signal racism? What next ban rope sales? Untie all boats that are moored?
I'm sure that was not made to show some kind of disrespect to blacks . You blacks need to relax , a noose shouldnt mean shit to you guys , you never saw anything even close to that in your time. One lady said she felt like she was back in slavery days. You never been a slave
Everyone is calling for them to be fired and without knowing the background or reason why it was done When I was a kid our teacher showed us a noose it's history the knots represent first 13 colonies it wasn't racist it was a history lesson it killed innocent people of all color

That certainly falls into the 'What were they thinking?' category. Would love to hear their explanation.
Suspension They should have been fired on the spot!!!
Fire them immediately, when they can't make a living maybe they will understand how wrong it is
Stupid to be offended by this. It wasn’t just blacks that were killed this way. wildwest deserters
Soooo whats next? Role playing.. Little Suzie come to the front of the class & lets play you get to hang!!! Friggin idiots!!😡
Where do they find these people? Dumbfounded!!
Should be fired.
What were they doing with it? What's the purpose for the picture?
Silly democracy still pissed republicans ended slavery
TrumpTard alert! TrumpTard alert!
Maybe the rope was in reference to the Obama administration and their punishment for their treason? Some people see racism in everything, it’s in my experience they are the onnes that are racist.
what if it was a pic of overweight humans holding candy bars? Sugar kills more that those nooses ever did. Or smoking cigs, talk about setting and example for the youth.
The most Racist states in United States are run by democrats. California and New York. The sanctuary states. May be it’s time to start reporting political affiliation of these racists. Won’t surprise me 90% vote democrat
What is wrong with people!?
Id like to know what they where taking the pic for? You know before you jump to conclusions.
Que genewilder: on a boat of never knowing. No one really knows where its going. All words spewed out of mouths is just shit flowing. No one actually knows where we are going.
They should be fired
Newsflash. Nooses have used to kill people of all colors for hundreds of years. In some areas of the world they are still being used today. Declined.
If a teacher is going to act that way and mock a horrible part of our history, they shouldn't be a teacher. Plain and Simple. A teacher signs up to respect all cultures, races, and religions without bias. Signed, a teacher.
Hangings were not exclusive to one race.
