Give me a break.  I see the tacky quotes you put around the word teacher.  I see you implying I am ignorant and a racist.  How many Black people were shot by cops last year?  How many died?  What were the Black people doing when they were shot?  How many Black people were shot by other Black people?  How many died?   How many White people were shot by police? How many Black people were shot by Black police?  Yes, it is a free country for everyone.  We are free to work, free to collect government handouts, free to commit crimes or not, free to support our children or not, free to take advantage of a free education for 13 years or not, free to criticize our president and other politicians or not, free to lie or not, free to call people out for lying, and on and on.  We are even free to reject victimhood and become enormously successful by our own hard work and ambition. All of these actions have consequences, whether positive, negative or otherwise.  I pity you, Patricia.
