Hawaii Teacher Disciplined After Saying He Won’t Teach Illegal Alien Students

If they’re known to be illegal, they should be deported.

Via NBC News:

    An Ewa Beach, Hawaii, high school teacher has been disciplined after he wrote in a staff-wide email that he would not teach undocumented immigrant students.

    Campbell High School teacher John Sullivan on Wednesday used his work email to reply to a group of messages about parents keeping students from school due to fears of being deported, according to NBC affiliate Hawaii News Now. In his email, he expressed support for President Donald Trump and said parents who kept their students home are attacking the Trump administration.

    “This is another attack on the President over deportation. Their parents need to apply for immigration like everyone else. If they are here in the US illegally, I won’t teach them,” a copy of the email obtained by Hawaii News Now reads.

    Hours after the teacher sent the message, Campbell Principal Jon Henry Lee emailed faculty and staff to ask them not to use the school’s email system to express political opinions. He also reminded faculty that the Department of Education’s Code of Conduct prohibits teachers from discriminating against student based on their nation of origin.

He was discriminating against certain students...not for their country of origin, but on their legal status.

Zackly. Except in Hawaii, which is heavily blue, the issue isn't seen that way. Pacific islanders comprise a big part of Hawaii's population and, I'd say, there are "sensitivities" due to that heavy influx of immigrants -- whatever their legal status.

Screw the sensitivities. It boils down to whether they're here legally or not. If they're not, out they go. Real simple -- but also very, very politically incorrect.
