Just so we're all on the same page, the guy whose dog was threatened was another student, not a teacher. And the person who threatened his dog may not be training to teach Special Ed, the story doesn't say. The threatened student is the one who aspires to teach Special Ed.
Doesn't change the fact that the clown with a problem should have been the one to leave but if we're going to rant, let's at least have the facts straight.
The guy whose dog was threatened was a "student teacher." He was a student with almost enough credits to graduate, and he was getting them by teaching for a semester.
Somali cab drivers still pull up to houses with blind citizens and then sneak away so as not to have to carry their dogs in their cabs... the blind are encouraged to call the company and register a complaint, but without a cab number it is difficult to nail anybody. That pisses me off. I can't imagine pulling up to help a blind person, then peeling off when I see they have a guide dog. Are you kidding me?
I *ALWAYS* buy a fresh pack of pork ribs at our local Somali-Wali (Wal-Mart) when I go... Just to watch the check out lady put on plastic gloves to scan and bag 'em.
OH... the other thing the local Minneapolis Star Tribune and the local news crews are doing, is omitting the racial description for perpetrators of crimes since it might cause discrimination against others of that race. So... if a guy of a certain race were to rape a woman, the news would give out height and weight and other descriptive details, but not race. Nice, eh?
