This fad of calling out for vengeance on people that do something you dont agree with is getting out of hand, people act like spoiled little brats.

Actually, yes, you can fire a person for publically expressing their opinion. It happens all the time.
And since these individuals that are expressing their support for a pedophile are in a public position as well teaching our children.
They should be fired. They’re dolts. And since they are defending a pedo, who knows what crap is spewing from their mouths when they are teaching?

So is there like a pro pedo movement out there now?
It looks like they are militant if they do exist.
This is what you get when you allow the gay rights to have center stage and get their way, now it's just a nudge for other sexual perversions to want their rights too. There's a pedophile somewhere wanting to marry kids, teach kids at kindergarden the pedo lifestyle, be able to adopt children as a pedo etc....

The parents of the victim don't believe the teachers defending the pedophile should be allowed to go on teaching.
Sorry but you cant fire someone from their career for expressing an opinion on a particular case or a person involved in the trial, however distasteful that opinion is.

Isnt it funny how that is?
I havent defended the pedo and I havent defended his supporters.
What I did defend is their right to express their opinions regarding their belief in his innocence and their opinion that his sentence is to long.
So, basically I defended their right to free speech without fear of losing their jobs and somehow that equates to me defending this guy and pedophilia.
Pathetic

I know it is far easier to live in the over simplified world of black and white, but what the OP fails to see is both things are possible.
The OP is falling for this false polarity: If you don't favor stoning for child molesters you are in favor of child molesting.
The folks who are supporting the teacher have a TOTALLY different experience with him and that is reasonable. He has made a truly awful choice to be sure, but the fact that folks support him isn't beyond reason.
What is truly unfortunate is folks have been mind controlled into believing that one mistake, of any sort, means not only jail forever but the history books must be changed to remove the person from ever existing.
Then again, maybe it is a safer, more simple minded world where anyone and everyone who errors is simply shunned. Before you reply with the "but child molesting is different" please refrain, I am not in favor of the act, I am also not in favor of the act being used as a way to exhibit "hang um all" righteousness, as is the last bastion of the simple minded.
