(JEWISH GROUP) Vermont Teacher Fired for Demonstrating Nazi Salute to Third Graders

THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP!! RESPECT!

A Georgia Elementary & Middle School substitute teacher was fired Thursday after demonstrating the Nazi salute for a group of third grade students, according to a district official.

Franklin West Supervisory Union Superintendent Ned Kirsch wrote to parents Thursday night that the incident involved a "long-term substitute" interacting with students who were walking to the cafeteria.

"The children were standing with their arm out in front of them and the teacher was modeling the position," Kirsch wrote. "She then raised her arm slightly and said, 'And now we say, Heil Hitler.'"

"I'm at a loss on the whole thing," Kirsch told Seven Days on Friday. "People are shocked. People I've spoken to are at a loss for words." He declined to identify the teacher.

leaving the class and we were supposed to say it back. I knew nothing about nothing so I did it but I heard from a friend, who was Jewish that their parents were really upset.
