Happy to see this. The problem with calling people racist, bigoted,or prejudice is it doesn’t always apply. Disagreeing doesn’t equate to being a bigot.
You cannot disagree with someone's existence- and not be a bigot. Lets be clear on that. Theres no agreeing to disagree on whether someone should have rights.
@Benley Nobody is disagreeing with their existence. People are tired of being told they have to ignore reality in order to appease someone's feelings. They already have the same rights as everyone else. What they really want are special privileges. Let's be clear on that.
@@Benleyy actually a bigot is someone who pushing their beliefs. Not believing in gender theory is a lack of belief. So the people telling others they have to act as if they share those beliefs are by definitions, bigots
TG Parent “needs protection”. Really? Who is responsible for delivering that protection? Who has made this determination that he actually needs protection? Protection from what? What has the world come to? Everybody’s somehow a (self assigned) victim. Nobody has the right to demand that others deliver benefits or special treatment to them simply because they have deemed themselves a victim. So sad. Get a life and start demonstrating personal responsibility.
Transgender people are the #1 victims of hate crimes/murders in this country. As recently as Matthew Shepherd's murder- assailants could claim a "lgbt panic" defense. No child should have to worry if they will be respected and accepted when going to school- these are the foundations of development. Grow up.
They need to give parents a choice about how they’re taught. Those who want their children to be sterilized at a young age should be able to choose affirming schools. And those who don’t want their kids heads filled with lies and misinformation should be able to choose non-affirming schools
@@PastorShayne no- they're not, lmfao. Male and Female are sexes, which is different from gender. Nobody is denying the existence of chromosomes & sexual organs- which have to do with sex.

Never thought in my life I would ever see a news organization take a side against free speech. The parting comments by the news anchor fail to realize that the teacher was the one being targeted. But as usual, those doing the targeting always get played as the victims.
Dear trans activists, You do have every right to use whatever words you choose to identify with. You do not have the right to insist that others use those same words, and the more you try to force this, the less people will want to interact with you. You are not helping the global trans community any more than ISIS has helped the global Muslim community. You need to evolve beyond this and learn to practice tolerance and respect for those who do not share your views. Full stop.
So your name is Noelle and that is how you choose to identify yourself and how you choose/like to be addressed , right ? How would you feel if someone you had to have regular contact with disrespected you every time , refusing to call you by the name you use to identify yourself and instead addressed you and introduced you as "Gertrude" or "B!tch" or "Dingbat"? Would you "evolve beyond it " and practice "tolerance" and "respect" to/for that person ?
@@Mike_Stramaglio Just fyi - I do think that teacher's remark about using preferred pronouns being a "sin" was excessive, and it did not help his argument, especially if he teaches in a public school. I hope he didn't say this to the child or to the other students.

I remember one of the deans at my school said I technically don't have free speech while I am in school because in speech class I made a comment during a group discussion that the majority of households in an inner city community are single-parent. In the discussion, this was just a comment to add onto what we were talking about, and not actually the full point of the discussion, which was about education reform in city schools. We were mainly talking about standardized testing during the discussion. Then the one black boy in class (there was one other black girl but she didn't speak about this) said that my comment was racist. At that moment I didn't know what to say at all because this was back in 2017, I was a junior in high school and I had never come face-to-face with something like that in my life. Maybe it's because I live in a mostly white Christian community, but it doesn't matter. Anyway I was told to go to the dean's office. My speech teacher told me later that she knows I didn't anything wrong, but she sent me down to make the kid feel better. I kind of apologized to him next class, but I still stood my ground and said that I never mentioned race in the comment. Looking back, I know now I should have had some kind of statistic ready so my comment would have some kind of support, but statistic or no statistic it's still bullshit that my comment was racist. And all my friends, some of them liberal, when I told them about it they were upset about the way I was treated. I will never forget when that dean told me I don't have freedom of speech in school. In a government funded public school, no one has free speech because "equity" and "inclusion." EDIT: Just wanted to bring up some stats about single parent homes in case anyone was wondering: www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/detroit/2018/12/01/gm-layoffs-detroit-single-parent-families/2125741002/ Detroit Free Press said in 2018 that Detroit has the highest single-parent household percentage at 72%. tradingeconomics.com/united-states/single-parent-households-with-children-as-a-percentage-of-households-with-children-in-baltimore-city-md-fed-data.html Trading Economics shows a graph with single-parent household percentages in Baltimore ranging from 58% to over 63% in the last 10 years.
I don’t think it’s racist but I also don’t think it’s very relevant in discussions about school reform either. Poverty has more to do with it than marital status as the social ills associated with these communities aren’t typical in single parent households above the poverty line. Most of us raised in single parent households don’t fail in school (I have an advanced degree and an income well above what is average for white men but went to schools that were very well resourced too) so I do see why it was controversial. He probably took it as you saying that black children deserve inferior education/ under resourced schools bc the “culture” is not to your standards. Even if that’s not what you meant, it’s an attitude that is usually associated with this talking point. The teacher was out of line for claiming that kids don’t have a right to free speech at school though.
I won't use messed up pronouns either. You don't like it, don't talk to me. The students ARE NOT GOING TO BE TARGETED. If anything they and their parents will be targeting other students and teachers.
"deserve to be respected" What a weak individual. Respect is earned. Yes, we treat everyone with a modicum of respect, you need to give in order to receive, but that doesn't mean anyone actually needs to respect you or your beliefs or play along with you.
No. No one is being bullied. THEY ARE BEING RAPED BY MALES WHO ARE ALLOWED TO USE THE GIRLS REST ROOM. BUT DO THEY PUNISH THE MALE WHO RAPED TWO GIRLS IN TWO DIFFERENT SCHOOLS ? NO. THEY GO AFTER THE TEACHERS WHO SPEAK UP AGAINST THE POLICIES AND BOARD MEMBERS WHO CAUSED THE RAPES TO HAPPEN.
You should never as an adult be putting your kids in a position to feel like they have to protect you in their school. Come on “dad”! 🤦🏼♀️ Do better as a parent regardless of you personal aflictioms.
1 side defends facts and legal grounds the other side defends feelings, emotions, and assumptions of bullying. I know what side stands strong and I hope the constitution is protected from emotional politics.
Thank God they ruled in the teachers favor. This is nonsense. We’ve had gay people forever. Never has there been a time the schools had to “teach” about it.
How are those children going to be targeted!? They weren't before and that teacher has EVERY RIGHT to his own beliefs. I'm so sick of all of this transgender/pronoun crap!
I am going through a similar situation as this teacher. I am a Licensed Therapist. I said some not very nice things to a trans gender child advocate in my local area. Basically, I believe that if God made you a boy then you are a boy. If God made you a girl then you are a girl. I believe that this trans gender activists might be doing these children more harm than good. This transgender activist took a screen shot of what I said to her and sent it to her friends. Her friends took a screen shot of what I said and put it all over FB and even posted it on my Yelp business page. One of these individuals is a trans gender school social worker and the other is someone who was previously elected on the school board. One of these individuals stated to the public that I am an embarrassment to the counseling profession and that I am disgusting. She further stated that I have no business counseling anyone and that I need to check my religion. I also believe that these individuals are trying to get my license revoked.
The anchor’s comment at the end seems nice, but is really siding against Tanner Cross. Why would referring to humans by the pronouns that describe their sex encourage bullying? It’s a nonsequitur.
When u can legally change ur name only then should others call u by that name. One cannot tell another to use pronouns that they don’t agree with nor understand . Very one sided . Can’t say GOD bless but force you to use pronoun nonsense..
I think we need less teachers less teachers that use pronouns as well as teachers that use religion. If your Christian, Muslim or Mormon I don't care but we have separation between church and state. I just wish these supposedly smart people would realize this before they jump into a career field they have no business in. Let's go back to the time where a highschool diploma was worthless. Let's be honest our education system is. I've been out of school 15 years using math, science, and history rarely id rather look back on personal life lessons, sexuality before every other person has magically became a weirdo and math, I just over engineer.
@PCGames They're not forced to believe in them. However, being a teacher means have an unbiased and neutral agenda. Whether the student is trans or not should make no difference to the teacher. Their objective is educate that students into being prepared for the future by molding them into better people and bigotry is not something that any district welcomes. I guarantee he won't get a contract by the same school again after this.
@@XTheCrystalBeastGuyX “unbiased” doesn’t mean “go by gender theory even if you don’t believe in it.” Imagine if we made teachers speak as if god existed
The “state” does not agree with you: “Ultimately, Loudoun County Circuit Judge James Plowman sided with Cross, stating that the school system’s handling of the situation was “extreme” and “vindictive.” Loudoun County schools said it would appeal the ruling three days later.” Remember, the state is not supposed to be anti-religious either.

@John Hicks you're a little tyrant Marxist. Just remember who will be the first to be purged....death to all commies
Tanner you have my utmost SUPPORT. Well Done!
Yay for the constitution! ♥️🇺🇸♥️🇺🇸♥️
Rise up Virginia!!
You're one "I" off
@@seniorsabali8759 what?
This teacher is speaking what is right
She is rude insensitive and a bigot
Courageous Teacher 🙌
@@autumnasbridge8691 A very sick and sad reply based on absolutely nothing.
@@autumnasbridge8691 how did he attack the kids exactly???
@Autumn Asbridge Speech isn't violence sweetheart. Now go get some ice cream and relax in your safe space. 🙂
Damn anyone can be subjected to hurtful comments and bullying…The judge got it absolutely right…
The bias on display by the gentleman at the very end of the clip was extremely unprofessional from somebody who is trying to pretend to be a journalist. If you want to be a journalist, not an opinion pundit, you have to leave your politics out of your work and simply report the facts. clearly the gentlemen at the end missed that day at journalism school, he should be fired immediately if this network wants to have any credibility as a journalistic institution.
What's so confusing!?!? 2 genders...2! Male.and female...smh
Reinstate the teacher
I remember one of the deans at my school said I technically don't have free speech while I am in school because in speech class I made a comment during a group discussion that the majority of households in an inner city community are single-parent. In the discussion, this was just a comment to add onto what we were talking about, and not actually the full point of the discussion, which was about education reform in city schools. We were mainly talking about standardized testing during the discussion. Then the one black boy in class (there was one other black girl but she didn't speak about this) said that my comment was racist. At that moment I didn't know what to say at all because this was back in 2017, I was a junior in high school and I had never come face-to-face with something like that in my life. Maybe it's because I live in a mostly white Christian community, but it doesn't matter. Anyway I was told to go to the dean's office. My speech teacher told me later that she knows I didn't anything wrong, but she sent me down to make the kid feel better. I kind of apologized to him next class, but I still stood my ground and said that I never mentioned race in the comment. Looking back, I know now I should have had some kind of statistic ready so my comment would have some kind of support, but statistic or no statistic it's still bullshit that my comment was racist. And all my friends, some of them liberal, when I told them about it they were upset about the way I was treated. I will never forget when that dean told me I don't have freedom of speech in school.
In a government funded public school, no one has free speech because "equity" and "inclusion."
EDIT: Just wanted to bring up some stats about single parent homes in case anyone was wondering:
www.freep.com/story/news/local/michigan/detroit/2018/12/01/gm-layoffs-detroit-single-parent-families/2125741002/ Detroit Free Press said in 2018 that Detroit has the highest single-parent household percentage at 72%.
tradingeconomics.com/united-states/single-parent-households-with-children-as-a-percentage-of-households-with-children-in-baltimore-city-md-fed-data.html Trading Economics shows a graph with single-parent household percentages in Baltimore ranging from 58% to over 63% in the last 10 years.
I don’t think it’s racist but I also don’t think it’s very relevant in discussions about school reform either. Poverty has more to do with it than marital status as the social ills associated with these communities aren’t typical in single parent households above the poverty line.
Most of us raised in single parent households don’t fail in school (I have an advanced degree and an income well above what is average for white men but went to schools that were very well resourced too) so I do see why it was controversial. He probably took it as you saying that black children deserve inferior education/ under resourced schools bc the “culture” is not to your standards. Even if that’s not what you meant, it’s an attitude that is usually associated with this talking point. The teacher was out of line for claiming that kids don’t have a right to free speech at school though.
Good for him. I hope they don't harass the guy. If they do, I hope he can sue and get cash money.
He's a teacher. He's going to get harassed by students on a daily basis.
Children are there to learn NOT be Indoctrinated and be part of a ongoing freak show.
Take all the trans students to an all trans school
I won't use messed up pronouns either. You don't like it, don't talk to me. The students ARE NOT GOING TO BE TARGETED. If anything they and their parents will be targeting other students and teachers.
actually, he is right!
She!
@@veganeatstreats25 it is he same.
@@afonsojunior1996 she!
Freaking awesome!! Wish more ppl were like this and spoke up and stood their ground. Good for you sir! I salute you!!!!
There’s justice afterall. To give a person a suspension or worse for this sort of thing is seemingly agains the constitution and just plain wrong!
"deserve to be respected" What a weak individual. Respect is earned. Yes, we treat everyone with a modicum of respect, you need to give in order to receive, but that doesn't mean anyone actually needs to respect you or your beliefs or play along with you.
No.
No one is being bullied.
THEY ARE BEING RAPED BY MALES WHO ARE ALLOWED TO USE THE GIRLS REST ROOM.
BUT DO THEY PUNISH THE MALE WHO RAPED TWO GIRLS IN TWO DIFFERENT SCHOOLS ?
NO. THEY GO AFTER THE TEACHERS WHO SPEAK UP AGAINST THE POLICIES AND BOARD MEMBERS WHO CAUSED THE RAPES TO HAPPEN.
Thank You God for creating this MAN that was born from a WOMAN ! We as humans appreciate you.
You should never as an adult be putting your kids in a position to feel like they have to protect you in their school. Come on “dad”! 🤦🏼♀️ Do better as a parent regardless of you personal aflictioms.
We are natural 🙌🏼💕🙇🏽♀️🙏🏽
Cross still works!
Ziegler is fired! 🥳
AT: corrupt judge reinstates buddy after receiving bribe
Judge: I order you to reinstate my buddy
Who is teaching kids they can change their gender and their self perception
He never should have been suspended…. They are not only coming for our freedom of speech but our freedom of thought
This man is a hero. Parents and teachers are finally fighting back. Enough of this nonsense.
1 side defends facts and legal grounds the other side defends feelings, emotions, and assumptions of bullying. I know what side stands strong and I hope the constitution is protected from emotional politics.
The problem with this teacher is he forces his religion on people and his beliefs the constitution says he can not do that PERIOD
Thank God they ruled in the teachers favor. This is nonsense. We’ve had gay people forever. Never has there been a time the schools had to “teach” about it.
Two years later this teacher looks like a prophet.
How are those children going to be targeted!? They weren't before and that teacher has EVERY RIGHT to his own beliefs. I'm so sick of all of this transgender/pronoun crap!
Nobody deserves to be respected if they are respectable. You don’t respect everyone.
Tanner Cross is a good teacher
wow did they just say Elementary
So you don't group people by gender preferences or ethnicity so why is there a special group for anyone?
so ffor a minority group they screw the majority...this world just screwed .🤣
Justice was served!
Stay with the news we don't need woke little jabs on the news from reporters.
Yes!
I am going through a similar situation as this teacher. I am a Licensed Therapist. I said some not very nice things to a trans gender child advocate in my local area. Basically, I believe that if God made you a boy then you are a boy. If God made you a girl then you are a girl. I believe that this trans gender activists might be doing these children more harm than good. This transgender activist took a screen shot of what I said to her and sent it to her friends. Her friends took a screen shot of what I said and put it all over FB and even posted it on my Yelp business page. One of these individuals is a trans gender school social worker and the other is someone who was previously elected on the school board. One of these individuals stated to the public that I am an embarrassment to the counseling profession and that I am disgusting. She further stated that I have no business counseling anyone and that I need to check my religion. I also believe that these individuals are trying to get my license revoked.
2+2 will no longer be 4 it will be the answer any one chooses to answer it and it will be correct
Since when did being offended sway law ?
Why is any student group based on their gender anyways?
Tanner Cross US Hero
He has his right
Tanner 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
The anchor’s comment at the end seems nice, but is really siding against Tanner Cross. Why would referring to humans by the pronouns that describe their sex encourage bullying? It’s a nonsequitur.
Because he is an ideologue.
@@Mentok211 You do not have a right to decide who speaks and who does not speak or encourage a government to trample the conscience of an individual.
When u can legally change ur name only then should others call u by that name. One cannot tell another to use pronouns that they don’t agree with nor understand . Very one sided . Can’t say GOD bless but force you to use pronoun nonsense..
Congratulations
I think we need less teachers less teachers that use pronouns as well as teachers that use religion. If your Christian, Muslim or Mormon I don't care but we have separation between church and state. I just wish these supposedly smart people would realize this before they jump into a career field they have no business in. Let's go back to the time where a highschool diploma was worthless. Let's be honest our education system is. I've been out of school 15 years using math, science, and history rarely id rather look back on personal life lessons, sexuality before every other person has magically became a weirdo and math, I just over engineer.
Good on him
Her kids
thats the whipala flag new commie flag
Transphobic teacher
@PCGames They're not forced to believe in them. However, being a teacher means have an unbiased and neutral agenda. Whether the student is trans or not should make no difference to the teacher. Their objective is educate that students into being prepared for the future by molding them into better people and bigotry is not something that any district welcomes. I guarantee he won't get a contract by the same school again after this.
@@XTheCrystalBeastGuyX “unbiased” doesn’t mean “go by gender theory even if you don’t believe in it.” Imagine if we made teachers speak as if god existed
Given the separation of church and state, and your beliefs get in the way, don't work for the state.
The “state” does not agree with you:
“Ultimately, Loudoun County Circuit Judge James Plowman sided with Cross, stating that the school system’s handling of the situation was “extreme” and “vindictive.” Loudoun County schools said it would appeal the ruling three days later.”
Remember, the state is not supposed to be anti-religious either.
@@befirmbefair6674 One's sexuality is not anti-religious.
