While I don’t condone what this teacher did, he was doing it in his off time from school. Those in public jobs have to be mindful of how they portray themselves to others and their own children. As long as he is not bringing his political beliefs, personal life, sexuality, religious beliefs into the classroom, he should not be disciplined for freedom of speech. Are the optics bad? Yes, but freedom of speech is more important.
I like freedom of speech also but to be a teacher and portray violence. He has better read his teaching contract. I am sure it said something in there. Seen it before.
