On Thursday, 11 Alive reported that a substitute teacher in Fulton County, Georgia has been fired after a video was leaked of him engaging in an "expletive-laced, racist rant" against President Obama in a classroom.
The teacher, who was not identified but appears to be Middle Eastern in origin, furiously blamed the former president for drone strikes, saying that "f**king Obama ... bombed the sh*t out of my country."
“I don’t think someone like that should be allowed in a school setting. He decided to compare Obama to Hitler and called someone the c-word in school,” he explained.
“It’s very disturbing the kind of language that was being used in a classroom," Gerald Griggs, Atlanta NAACP's first vice president, told 11 Alive. “School is not the place to have that kind of vitriol conversation with young people. That’s why we’re concerned, and the definite racist overtones that were coming out were very, very concerning.”
