That doesn't look like a *photo* of Trump.

Placed on leave for cultural appropriation or for allowing students to wield a weapon or for unhealthy snacks?

They could have ignored one or possibly two violations. There was no way they could ignore the trifecta. If they didn't make an example now teachers may believe that school was a place for costumes, peanuts or even libertarian ideas.

I never thought that today's kids were so creative. Just wait until Halloween.

Are they sure that isn't supposed to be just some random white cislord member of the patriarchy.

The teacher should have just stuck with the traditional burro pi?ata, handed the kids a stick and asked them to spank his ass. And I'm not sure how you can automatically claim a Trump pi?ata is "disrespectful" - you're teaching kids that Trump is a wonderful magical being who dispenses free candy like Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny, aren't you?

I don't know how they do things down in Jaurez...
