A High School Teacher Is Being Investigated For Allegedly Accusing An "Ethnic" Of Stealing A Computer Mouse

"To the moronic, self-obsessed ethnic who stole the mouse from the back computer: the fact that you do not know both your parents, and that the so called adults that are caring for you can not afford a five dollar part because they are too busy buying drugs and coring cigars at the Shop-Rite does not change the fact that you are nothing more than a two bit thief and a waste of carbon and oxygen."

maybe this guy needs a gun to protecc da mices. /sarcasm

Ok...but what about the mouse?

Are they investigating the petty theft? Used to be, something like that was a little higher on the priority scale than offending an, "ethnic".

Noticing a common trend where some folks find more wrong with speaking out about crime honestly, even the victims of such crime; than the crimes themselves, the fact that they're happening, or that it is generally certain groups committing a vastly disproportionate level of crime in relation to their percentage of the population.

Some of us are of the crazy notion that human dignity is more valuable than ten dollars worth of plastic.

"An ethnic" is one of the more hilariously "PC"-sounding ways to be racist I think I've seen.

Explain the relevance of not being white is to this incident.
Further, explain how reducing another person to nothing more than "not being white" isn't an attack on that person's human dignity.

I imagine he was trying to narrow it down.

We reduce people down to words every time we talk about people. Would you prefer he had written a soliloquy about his ethnicity before calling him a thieving juvenile delinquent?

Right, which is why I would never say, "the clerk at the gas station" but "the white devil at the gas station" I mean it's not a totally irrelevant piece of information said to intentionally demean the person on the basis of their skin color or not being of a particular skin color.

Think there was only one kid in the computer class? Why call anyone out, call the cops.

Multiple clerks. Different ethnicities. Now distinguish them for a stranger knowing virtually nothing about them.

And remember, there are comedy skits with this as the setup.

If a student had stolen something from a classroom, and the teacher was aware of the situation back when I was in school, the teacher would have very likely mentioned the fact that they knew one of the students took something in the hopes that they might return it. If they knew the identity of that individual, they would have gone to the principle and got the parents involved.

I can't think of a scenario in which the statement made by the teacher as presented in the OP would be remotely an appropriate way of handling the situation.

Perhaps things are different where you come from. But here on planet sanity, there are good ways of handling a situation and bad ways to handle a situation. And the teacher under discussion here handled the situation quite poorly. Which is why we are talking about what the teacher said, instead of what the student did.

If you aren't capable of understanding why this is a mishandling of the situation, then I don't know what to tell you. I don't know if it's because you're trolling, are truly this socially unaware, or simply lack a basic human conscience. Perhaps some combination of the three, or another factor.

Totally mishandled. No argument there. But this dude is probably going to get fired. That's planet SJW, not planet sanity.

Seems pretty funny to me, considering he didn't know who stole it... Everyone is an "ethnic" something anyways -so he's right about that.

...Also, calling the parent's of the mystery child a drug addict is actually meaningless, considering he has no clue who they are.

How do you know the person who stole it wasn't "white"?

Is planet sanity a dogwhistle for planet racist now or? It's hard to keep up.
