Social media remarks from three Lee County teachers in response to the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk have been made public. <\/p>\n
In response to a records request, The School District of Lee County is releasing the content of three social media posts by system teachers. WGCU News is not identifying the teachers by name.<\/p>\n
One posted, \u201cWhat\u2019s that about the cost of the second amendment being \u2018some gun deaths every year\u2019? Bye Charlie\u201d with an applause emoji and three fire emojis.<\/p>\n
Another stated, \u201cI pray Charlie receives whatever God sees fit,\u201d with a smile emoji. The same teacher posted, \u201csounds like he made a sacrifice that was worth it for him.\u201d<\/p>\n
And another wrote, \u201cI\u2019m so sorry but \u2026 to put it lightly. This did not sadden me in any way shape or form if you know what I mean,\u201d along with a smile emoji. The teacher also re-posted another user\u2019s comment, \u201cYou deserve a break. Stop healing. Choose violence. Go bat*&^% insane. Do it for the plot.\u201d<\/p>\n
Superintendent Denise Carlin has recommended all three employees be fired. The school system says one teacher has resigned, one has left the state and the other has until Nov. 4 to contest the decision.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Social media remarks from three Lee County teachers in response to the fatal shooting of Charlie Kirk have…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":21021,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[14],"tags":[209,211,210],"class_list":["post-21020","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cape-coral","tag-cape-coral","tag-cape-coral-headlines","tag-cape-coral-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21020","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21020"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21020\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21021"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21020"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21020"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21020"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
