"God's Cleansing Plan"




Worst testimony so far - from a verified teacher in a North #Georgia School District:

"I am planning for 27 students in my tiny classroom. They are not making masks mandatory. My principal is joking to people that this is 'god's cleansing plan'."

There are sick fucks out there and some are religious and some are managing public schools and some happen to be both.

Maybe the principal has a direct line "upstairs." Graham and Falwell can't be the only ones.

She may as well quit her job to save herself and her family. This is suicide.

But make sure his secretary is away from her desk, as they'd be another innocent bystander.
Perhaps coordinate it with the assistant, and others teachers too!

smallpox, measles, whooping cough, mumps, bubonic plague, and ebola to help with God's cleansing plan.

What an idiot.

And we send all these Death Cultists, Anti-Vaxxers, Anti-Maskers, and others who actively endanger other folks health to stay at them until we get this pandemic under control.

Hell, spend some of that obscene defense budget and buy fucking Country Clubs, Christian Summer Camps, and Rich and Famous Hotels and Retreats for them to stay at - I don't give a fuck if the ghoulish bastards live in comfort until they get Covid and die, just protect the rest of us from their brain dead stupidity and willfully murderous ignorance.

Make it a 'sweepstakes' - they can send in a pix or story or video of how they are 'bravely' exercising their 'freedumbs' and they win an all expense paid vacation...of coarse every entry wins the grand prize.



Mostly, sorta, sarcasm, but it is the way I feel today.

"competent professionals"... NOT! Some things you just don't joke about. Trump tries to do that crap also. Says he's joking when he's serious! What person (in their right mind) would even think of saying this? That principal should not have children's lives in his hands! He should be ousted!
& OMG they're not even going to wear masks with 27 students in a small classroom???

As far as putting children, teachers, administrators, support staff, and the children's families and relatives at risk...that appears to be Trump's cleansing plan.

Of course, many people see Trump as their God, so, for them, it may be as this teacher said.
But then who see Trump as God?
Devils, Demons, lesser Satans?

People talk about the world going to hell in a hand basket, but where does one go when one is already there?

There was absolutely no love in that teacher's statement; purely evil intent.

pseudo Christians sacrificed their children. Perhaps the Principal was frustrated by the decisions the politicians.

is a very 3rd Reich thing.

Death camps were meant for this purpose.

Your principal apparently thinks some people contaminate the rest of us and therefore deserve to die.
