Mad this. It literally says he got jailed for ignoring a court order telling him to stay away from the school - yet the headline says it’s for not calling a kid they. He broke the court order cos he was being a self righteous stalkery Christian weirdo. I know the sort, they did the same to us at school cos we were scruffy poor unfortunates / desperate people that apparently needed god to save us. Loads of Christians are like this, proper weirdos.
timeline of events:
teacher misgenders a kid in front of his class
the kid politely corrects him and the teacher gets really mad and upset
a few days later there’s an event at school. pretty much everyone is there. teachers, students, parents
during this event he makes an impromptu speech about how pronouns are bad. reminder that this event had nothing to do with LGBTQ stuff. it was like a big school dinner or something
he also goes on a huge homophobic rant. other teachers, students, and parents are annoyed.
he then follows around the principal all night begging her to “ban pronouns”
the principal repeatedly asks him to leave her alone
teacher does not fuck off
principal puts teacher on paid leave. tells him not to come to work tomorrow
he shows up anyway
someone showing up at school when they’ve been told not to is a security risk and also a crime
staff ask him to leave
principal gets a legal document forbidding him from coming to the school
he continues to show up to school multiple days in a row, despite not being allowed at the school
he is potentially a threat to students
staff ask him to leave or they will call the cops
he doesn’t leave
he gets arrested
judge rules that because he wasn’t allowed near that school, and yet still showed up at that school multiple times, putting everyone at that school in danger, he was found guilty of contempt of court
so no, this was not a teacher going to jail because he used the wrong pronouns. this was a ass wipe who couldn’t take no for an answer and violated a restraining order, potentially putting the kids and staff at school in danger, so he faced the consequences for his actions.
