LAUSD Mel Gibson High School- UPDATE - "You're Fired"

It appears that the LAUSD reads MTRMedia.com.  The San Francisco Chronicle has reported that Patricia McAllister has been fired from her part time teaching position!

Los Angeles school officials say a substitute teacher has lost her job after making anti-Semitic comments during an interview.  In a statement Tuesday, schools Superintendent John Deasy condemned remarks made by Patricia McAllister during a protest rally last week.  In an Oct. 12 interview with Reason.com at a Los Angeles rally, McAllister said "Zionist Jews and the Federal Reserve" need to be run out of this country.  McAllister worked as a day-to-day substitute teacher in the district.

Deasy says that although freedom of speech is a protected right of public employees, the LAUSD can't set a good example for students while tolerating disrespectful, intolerant or discriminatory behavior.

I could not have said it better.  Now wait a minute…that is what I said.
