In A Bind

I’m friends on facebook with a teacher at the high school I graduated from. He’s a respected teacher and does many art shows for the community. But he posts a lot of political content and the other dat he lashed out on someone who disagreed with him on gun reform. Basically this teacher pulled up old posts on this person and posted it in the comments Of his post and called this person a gun extremist.

I get the fact his facebook is set on private Teachers should be allowed to post their beliefs

But what I do not believe they should have the right to call out someone like that. What if I was a parent or another parent saw that and demanded the kid should be pulled from his class. Can he handle a student that has different political beliefs or does he squash the Republican views?

To me its a gray area of teaching.

But I stand by my view that calling someone out like that when your a public servant is misguided and ugly.
