‘I hate their guts – they are all devil’s spawn’
Teacher can’t be fired for this tasteless F’book crack about kids, judge rules

A Brooklyn teacher — fired for posting snarky online comments suggesting her unruly students should drown — can go back to the classroom, a judge says.

Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Barbara Jaffe last week overturned an administrative decision to boot Christine Rubino, who taught at PS 203 in Flatlands, for posting “repulsive” comments on Facebook.

A blow to the city Department of Education, the ruling underscores the grueling process to fire teachers accused of misconduct or incompetence. Even after lengthy administrative trials, judges can reverse decisions either way, and prolong a costly battle.

“After today, I’m thinking the beach sounds like a wonderful idea for my 5th graders. I HATE THEIR GUTS! They are all the devils spawn!” Rubino wrote on Facebook on June 23, 2010.
She made the remarks one day after a 12-year-old Harlem girl, Nicole Suriel, drowned on a school trip to a Long Island beach.
When a Facebook friend asked, “oh you would let little Kwame float away!’’ Rubino post in reply, “Yes, I wld not throw a life jacket in for a million!!”

Maybe they are devil spawn deserving to be hated.

In flyover country the result would be quite different.  The large metropolitan school districts of the Northeast suffer under their own self-inflicted problems, which generally go back to either the political clout of big unions, or the corruption of most of the watchdogs, like school boards.

In Brooklyn ?

Chances are pretty good that one of her students will "bust a cap in her azz" for that remark.
