    These are the people teaching our children, I am not jewish but I KNOW jews were slaughtered during the reign of the Nazis and so does everyone else.

    I wonder how he would react if someone said that Slavery wasnt a factual event


    A high school principal in Florida who said that he couldn’t say the Holocaust was a “factual, historical event” was fired from his school district on Wednesday, a report said.


    Principal William Latson, who was head of a school in Palm Beach County, was officially canned from his job after being reassigned in July, CNN reported.

    This is where PC tolerance gets you..

    “Not everyone believes the Holocaust happened,” Latson said, according to email records obtained by The Palm Beach Post. “And you have your thoughts, but we are a public school and not all of our parents have the same beliefs.”

    Just the thought that a "parent" might not agree it happened means in his mind he didnt want to teach about it..

Berate berate berate YOU STUUUPIIID.... IDIOOOOT Try this stress pose. Wait, does the principle advise, or teach the classes in any way? What if it is some persecution? I was joking of course. But he says in his Official Capacity, in His Job, he Cannot Confirm, there was a holocaust?

    Good.

    If the Holocaust is not factual there are no facts. Skepticism is one thing and agenda driven idiocy another.

    It is indefensible, and I see many people not actively Promoting Holocaust awareness, particularly in Poland, which is why we send out one judge for a mass beration of a 100 at a time in some field etc, passes the Guilty verdict. Guilty Guilty Guilty, there WAS a holocaust.

    Those old films of naked people being marched To their deaths were all actors. All the skeletons and human ash were fake. All those people with numbers branded on their wrists were actors. The endless hours of audio documented from survivors and even Nazis themselves were phony. Millions of people somehow disappeared without a traced. So easy to fake.

    /boggle


    It takes a truly sick mind to claim it didn’t happen.

    I'm always amazed by those conspiracy theorists who lock on to a theory like it was a religion.

    Politically neutral? How do beliefs even enter into it? Something either happened or it didn't. Beliefs have nothing to do with the facts of history that we are supposed to teach our children. Gravity exists whether we believe in it or not. You wouldn't tell a child to test that by jumping off of a building, would you?

    We need to offer a better life to teachers. Only when we make it a venerable and well-paid profession can we weed out idiots like this guy. And he was a principal, ffs. No wonder idiocy and incompetence are on a steady rise in American society.

    Do these people believe they're to teach 'beliefs' rather than facts? It seems similar to the Seattle math situation where you can just believe the answers,

    Well, religions have as much substance as conspiracy theries so it's logical. Most people believe rubbish of one kind or another.

    I do not see this as PC but I see this as stupidity on steroids. So let me guess. So if this Anus of a " principle" will next decide that the science teachers cannot teach that the earth revolves around the sun and that the earth is basically a Spheroid and that it spins around on it's axis and tilts back and forth causing the seasons. Why because some people do not believe that the earth rotates around the sun. They better stop teaching that the earth is about 4 billions years old because many Evengentitals think that it is only 6000 years old.

    I don't know anyone who doesn't believe that the holocaust "happened" but according to an ADL poll, the vast majority of people around the world do not believe the inflated number of casualties and grisly fantasies promulgated by the multi-billion dollar Holocaust Industry.

    I strongly suspect that the number of independent thinking individuals who reject the standard holocaust narrative is much higher than reflected in this poll because of repressive holocaust denial laws that deter free speech in many "democracies".

    In other words, those who truly reject the standard holocaust narrative are unlikely to say so out of fear of reprisals and other forms of persecution by today's P.C. / Thought Police.

    ”THE WORLD IS FULL OF HOLOCAUST DENIERS”
    https://www.theatlantic.com/interna...he-world-is-full-of-holocaust-deniers/370870/

    EXCERPT “Only 54 percent of the world's population has heard of the Holocaust.

    This is the most staggering statistic in a new survey by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of more than 53,000 people in over 100 countries, conducted by First International Resources.

    Only a third of the world's population believe the genocide has been accurately described in historical accounts.

    Some said they thought the number of people who died has been exaggerated; others said they believe it's a myth.

    Thirty percent of respondents said it's probably true that "Jews still talk too much about what happened to them in the Holocaust."

    - Hindus were most likely to believe that the number of Holocaust deaths has been exaggerated.

    - people younger than 65 were much more likely to say they believe that facts about the Holocaust have been distorted”CONTINUED

    Good. As a member of the teaching profession he should be closely allied with the facts or not have a job in that profession.
