Well, I get that. But what does EAST have to do with it?

I'm honestly curious if there's any feedback from the parents once the principal gave a logical & rational explanation afterwards. I'd also like to know if those death threats were traced back & be held accountable for. After all it is a crime to use social media as a carriage to threaten people.
Originally posted by Time-ImmemorialNo they aren't, and all the parents that threw a sissyfit should kill themselves so that adults who are able to raise a child can take their children.
So all the parents were wrong and all of them over reacted. How can this be proven? Parents when grouped together generally are right when comes to a single teachers screwup.

Ok. Here's the point. If schools & teachers had to proofread every single work sheet they handed out & then edited or censored or disregarded every topic that might offend someone...don't you think there would be very little left to teach or learn from?
I'm not here to play censor but its obvious no matter who or how we play a situation out. Caligraphy didn't start or stop with that particular illustration.
This lesson plan showed bad judgement, thats all.
Bad judgment to what?
You're kinda implying that for now on every school has to have a staff meeting every morning & decide what topics or words or phrases shouldn't be used for the day.
Yeah you had a recent shooting with terrorist undertones...so did we here in Australia & so did Paris.
Have you come across any other articles on "bad judgement calls" in school lessons?
One kid posted the assignment to his mother & his mother over reacted causing a negative chain reaction.

If u don't like it then you and your liberal kind are the ones that needs to move to some no-name island where you can praise the fake god "Allah" to your hearts content. White Christians are the ones who founded this country and won it's independence. If this country belongs to anyone it belongs to us. Trust me, if anyone's gonna be forced to leave it sure as Hell won't be "Republican White Christians" but instead your dumbasscratic kind. If you libs think you can force us to leave then, by all means, bring it, badass. *shows middle finger*
The stupid is strong in this one.
That's a bit of overreaction. Ok, maybe not a bit. The teacher is at fault though. He should've known there would be backlash when he assigned Arabic calligraphy to his students. It doesn't matter if it was intentional (as in, the teacher rebelled against American society/the school for Islamophobia or Islamic propaganda or media attention) or unintentional (he was really using the coursework to teach Arabic calligraphy just to educate the students.)

No, he shouldn't have. That people would respond like this is ****ing insane. The ones at fault are the neanderthals sending death threats over a worksheet.

Teacher knew what he was doing, the liberal agenda is trying to softly break Islamic indoctrination in, people are waking up and tired of it. How many stories are going to come up like this and how many times will everyone here jump on the grenade for the teachers and or schools.
What they are doing is wrong, there should zero teachings of any religion in any public school.
Unless people are now realizing that islam is not a religion and wanting it to be taught as a ideology and thats the route they are going.

Uh, no. They're not insane. They were simply concerned about what their children were being taught and I can't say I blame them for being so upset and yes,the teacher should've known damn well that what he/she did was wrong.
