Racist Teacher's Aide Has Been CANNED! Posting Recklessly on Social Media Is a NO NO!

Jane Wood Allen a teacher's aid in Georgia was fired for her racist and disrespectful comments about First Lady Michelle Obama.

Jane Wood Allen posted these comments on her social media constantly and consistently referring to the First Lady as a Gorilla. Saying quote: "This poor Gorilla. How is she going to function in the real world, by not having all of her luxurious vacation paid for anymore? She needs to focus on getting a total makeover (especially the hair), instead of planning vacations! She is a disgrace to America!"

But Michelle Obama isn't the only suffer this disgusting treatment. An article about Muslims leaving if Donald Trump will the president surfaced on Facebook as many do (side note: I'm leaving too. I can't and won't be a part of this nonsense). Ms. Jane goes in again saying: "BYE! Don't come back! You have no business in the USA anyway!" But does she stop there...Oh no! She continues her bull**** rhetoric.

Jane decided to continue berating the First Lady. Upset that Michelle Obama is one of the most admired women in the world. Jane's argument was she wasn't a "REAL" first lady. She used and abused her title because she went on trips every other day. And wasted tax payers dollars. She also claims she's the worst example of a First Lady ever. And then proceeded to call her a Gorilla again. According to BET.com, her facebook has been removed but she had plenty of other anti-minority posts on her page.

Now when people started sharing this it went viral FAST! Twitter, Facebook people were mad and shared this woman's name and tagged her job in their posts asking for this woman to be removed from teaching because of her racist views. I'm sure there were plenty of reports on this woman's page as well. People also tagged the district she worked in, the school, shared the posts over and over again until someone was contacted.

Once the school district, Forsyth County got wind of her conduct online she was canned! Last Friday, Jennifer Caracciolo a spokeswoman for the school district made this statement: "Our schools are closed for fall break this week. We have and will continue to address this issue with the employee next week. Racism and discrimination are not tolerated in Forsyth County School." By Monday Mrs. Wood Allen was relieved of her duties at Chestatee Elementary. The School District also stated: "They are committed to ongoing staff training on the acceptance of all individuals."

This is not the first person to insult the first lady is such a disrespectful manner and go viral. In July there was a woman who tweeted her disdain for the FLOTUS. Lisa Greenwood, a former loan officer for Home Point Financial in Anne Arbor, Michigan decided tweet and I quote:

"@FLOTUS beautiful??? Seriously she is an ugly black bitch"

Well with this tweet it sparked a fire storm. It was shared millions of times and went viral. Many people contacted her place of employment voicing their concerns and she was eventually let go. Home Point Financial moved quickly to resolve the growing the concerns via twitter, stating:

"The individual who made reprehensible comments regarding last night's speech by the First Lady is no longer employed with Home Point Financial. Home Point Financial does not agree with nor condone such comments, which were made on the individual's Twitter Account. We hold true to our WE Care philosophy - our responsibilities extend beyond the workplace and into our communities."

A lesson in social media conduct and basic human decency: You can not like someone, voice your opinion and stand by it without insulting and disrespecting them. You also need to find another field to work in. Don't be a public servant like a teacher when you know you have a seriously ignorant tolerance to people outside of your race. Times haven't changed much and if you ask me with the invention of social media it has allowed people to get out of the cloak they hide under and let their true feelings come out. But understand when you spew UNFOUNDED hatred you are setting yourself up for the slaughter. I'm sorry that she lost her job. But you have to be tolerant especially when you are going to be teaching some of the very same people you harbor hatred for.

Furthermore the notion that Michelle Obama does nothing but take vacations is just false. She's a harvard lawyer who happens to be the FLOTUS. She works hard to promote health and encouraging children to become healthy individuals. She has countless programs that she has spoken for and continues to rally for to this day.

Look it up:

LET'S MOVE!- A nationwide initiative to promote healthy eating and fitness!
Let Girls Learn - A global wide program focusing on foreign nations and helping to open the doors of education for girls around the world
Joining Forces - A joint iniative including Vice President Joe Biden to help military spouses
Reach Higher - A program to encourage young adults to seek education beyond high school

EDUCATE YOURSELF PEOPLE BEFORE YOU SPEAK THAT WAY YOU DON'T LOOK AND SOUND LIKE A FOOL!
