Wow:
A Beaver Dam Middle School teacher is on administrative leave after school officials discovered a photo of her with a gun on Facebook.
Schools superintendent Donald Childs says a concerned staff member brought the photo to the district’s attention.

I searched the teacher name for images on Google, and while I am not sure this is the image, it was the best match I could find. In the image, the teacher (?) is not pointing the gun at the camera, so this could possibly be a photo that is not the one in question. Further investigation by those with greater google-fu is urgently requested.

If this happened to a union member, it would be interesting to know how the union handles it. Would they claim, for once, that the second amendment protected this teacher’s right to keep and bear arms?

I wonder what they do to Armed School Teachers up there?

If we let pictures of teachers carry guns, they could (through incompetence or rage, gun owners are known for both) do serious harm to pictures of our kids, and THEN where would our yearbooks be?

I smell a lawsuit. If I were this poor lady I would filr suit in federal district court so fast they would be crying before the ink was dry!! This is a clear violation of her 1st amendment rights not to mention her 2nd. It is also discriminitory in nature and could be concidered profiling. If she doesnt SUE shes crazy!!
