Not in a Texas school ... right?

Or maybe so....

Professor Under Investigation for Allegedly Forcing Students to Make Anti-Gun Posters | TheBlaze.com


This is one way they show more support for something than actually exists. At least try. At least the school is 'investigating' and the face book page was deleted, but after the damage was done.

Who ever said this doesn't happen in Texas schools? Doesn't matter where you are if you let a liberal democrat in they are going to start screwing stuff up.

While the teacher was probably within her academic rights with the assignment, using student work without permission may be problematic. Her point of thinking of it as a job, where graphic designers get assigned to do things that they may or may not support is a good point. But, in the real world we can change jobs. In college, changing isn't as easy. Her class may be required and students pay to be there. They should have had an option. This assignment or that assignment.

Now me, my design would have included something like, "I'd rather be found dead and raped, than have to explain shooting the bastard."

Just as an academic exersise, it would not have been an issue, but using it to promote her agenda online, etc... is totally wrong on a lot of counts.

I like your idea for a sign

I'd have drawn a picture to the effect of "We shouldn't have guns because that would make the next holocaust more difficult".
I'd probably make sure i had lots of JBT's stomping women and infants.
I'd get first accused of anti-semitism, but i would be happy to let real point sink in! Anyone can be the next "Jew".

Sorry, but this stuff bugs me: brainwashing our next generation of leaders, one art class at a time.

An article I read yesterday "reported" that what this teacher did could actually bring criminal charges.

http://dailycaller.com/2013/04/10/p...tudents-forced-to-design-anti-gun-propaganda/

The article said that as a teacher at a state school, she is an employee of the state; the article also said that state law prohibits an employee of the state to use their position to "interfere with or affect the result of an election or nomination of a candidate or to achieve any other political purpose."

Whether the article is correct or not I don't know. I do know I wouldn't want to be that teacher right now.
