One example came from a special education teacher at King Elementary School in Framingham, Massachusetts.

The video, which has since been deleted, was preserved by Libs of TikTok with the caption, “THIS person teaches YOUR children.”
In Naples, New York, another public school teacher allegedly called Kirk an “aspiring Goebbels” on Facebook and wrote “Good riddance to bad garbage.”
Charlie Kirk was shot once in the neck and died in the hospital. The shooter ran from the scene and was still at large Thursday evening. The FBI released photos of the suspect, who they said appears to be college-age.
At Fort Bragg, North Carolina, department of defense education activity teacher Kristen Eve reportedly wrote on Facebook, “He was a garbage human being. I won’t mourn him for one second,” followed by, “We are at a point where things are going to have to get ugly, get messy, maybe even get violent, to change this dumpster fire of a country.” She also added, “Voting is NOT ENOUGH,” “f—k the high road,” and “f—k that guy.”
By Thursday, school officials began to respond. In Greenville, South Carolina, social studies teacher Wynne Boliek wrote “America became better today. There I said it.” He was fired, with the school district confirming his dismissal.
In Iowa, Oskaloosa High School said it was “taking steps consistent with district policy” after art teacher Matthew Kargol allegedly posted “1 Nazi down.”
