I saw this story at Gateway Pundit.

DUNCANVILLE., Texas — A tweet by a Duncanville ISD teacher has landed the woman in the middle of a social media firestorm, and now the district is promising “swift action.”

Yeah. I’ll bet they are. So what did this woman do?

On Friday night, a Twitter account belonging to teacher Vinita Hegwood tweeted the following:

“Who the [expletive] made you dumb duck ass crackers think I give a squat [expletive] about your opinions about my opinions RE: Ferguson? Kill yourselves.”

Let’s do a little thought experiment here. What do you think would happen if we reversed the races and changed “cracker” to “nigger”. Holy crap! The sky would be filled with airplanes carrying RWPPs like Jesse Hymietown Jackson, Al Tawana Brawley Crown Heights Riots Freddie’s Fashion Mart Arson Sharpton and Eric My People Holder. Obola would take time out from his golf game to give yet another speech on race. The teacher would have been immediately fired instead of being suspended.

Hegwood is African-American and teaches English, according to the school’s website.

Let me take some time to digest the information that a black person teaches English.

OK. I’m good.

A man who identified himself as Hegwood’s husband at their home on Sunday night said she wasn’t available but that there was more to the story. He wouldn’t elaborate.

That’s because he and his wife have not come up for a decent excuse or lie to use. They’re prolly trying to think of a way to blame this on white people, Republicans, or Bush.

The school district confirmed it was aware of the Tweet, and issued this statement late Sunday:

“As an individual, Ms. Vinita Hegwood expressed an opinion on social media that is solely her own. She used her personal social media account to make remarks that are offensive. While everyone has the right to free speech, as a teacher in the district, we believe the comments that are alleged to be made by Ms. Hegwood are absolutely reprehensible and we do not condone it. The district is taking swift action in this matter within the authority set forth by district policy. Duncanville ISD embraces diversity and is not defined by the personal opinion of one.”

Embraces diversity is another way of saying they embrace affirmative action and will do everything in their power not to fire this racist woman.

Hegwood’s Twitter account has since been closed down, despite attempts by a growing number of folks to tag her in tweets and posts. It isn’t clear if there was a tweet aimed directly at her that prompted the outburst on Friday night.

The district said more information might be available later this week.

And they really really hope this blows over and doesn’t get picked up by the national media. They shouldn’t have to worry since the LSM propaganda arm of the Dimocrat Party won’t report on this. However, if the races and epithet were reversed, this would be a national story. After all, only white people can be racists.

Update: Looks like they gonna fire her ass. She has been suspended without pay pending discharge. More of her tweets at the link. Thanks to Dork, in the comments for alerting me to this.
