Ohio teacher burned cross on kids' arms

[PLC1]

MOUNT VERNON, Ohio - A public school teacher preached his Christian beliefs despite complaints by other teachers and administrators and used a device to burn the image of a cross on students' arms, according to a report by independent investigators.

"With the exception of the cross-burning episode ... I believe John Freshwater is teaching the values of the parents in the Mount Vernon school district," he told The Columbus Dispatch in a story published Friday.

I saw he is a witch and should be burned

Kids go to school to learn facts, they can go to church if they want to learn faith or told loads of garbage about science.

But its fine for islamophobics to cherry pick individual stories of radical Muslims? At least be consistent.

I dunno. Must not be any anti Christian bigots on this forum.

Maybe we can recruit some, just to make things interesting.

Burning a cross on a students arm is a bit over the top.

As for anti-christian bigots defaming christians; if christians aren't being persecuted, we really aren't living our faith.

sometimes being anti Christan just means, non Christians saying we are not Christians and have rights and don't want to be treated like our views are 2nd class.
