Simon_Gruber 08/06/21 9:55:11 AM #6 | Yeah, it's great. Excited for Season 2 to start up next week CommonStar posted... I think the reason it's better than the other CW shows is because it doesn't have too much of the teenage drama romance shit. Agreed. And hell, it's the only one of the DCTV shows that actually HAS Teenagers as the leads. Flash, Arrow, Supergirl, etc are all in the upper 20's or 30's. Superman and Lois has been great too. They have Teen boys who get the stupid drama shit but they're not the leads so it's not too bad. |

Topic | White woman who called police on Black man says she had no other choice but to |
Simon_Gruber 08/05/21 11:33:39 AM #1 | The white woman who was recorded on video calling police to claim that a Black bird-watcher was threatening her in New York City's Central Park last year said she felt she was backed into a corner. In Tuesday's episode of "Honestly," a podcast by former New York Times writer Bari Weiss, the woman, Amy Cooper, said she had no other choice but to call 911 when the bird-watcher, Christian Cooper, offered her dog a treat after he asked her to keep the pooch on a leash. "He's holding these dog treats in one hand and a bike helmet in his other hand, and I'm thinking, 'Oh, my God, is this guy going to lure my dog over and try to hit him with his bike helmet?'" she told podcaster Kmele Foster. "And if I end up over there, am I going to get hit by this bike helmet?" Tuesday's interview was a departure from her initial remarks after video of the encounter on May 25, 2020, recorded by Christian Cooper, went viral and drew widespread outrage as an example of police being called on an African American who was not committing any crime. Amy Cooper said then that she overreacted and was sorry. She told NBC New York at the time: "When I think about the police, I'm such a blessed person. I've come to realize, especially today, that I think of [the police] as a protection agency, and unfortunately, this has caused me to realize that there are so many people in this country that don't have that luxury." On the podcast, however, she said, "I don't know that as a woman alone in a park that I had another option" but to call police. Christian Cooper declined to comment about Amy Cooper's latest remarks. He has previously said that he approached to ask her to put her dog on a leash, which is the policy for the Ramble area of Central Park. He said he is often in the Ramble and asks for dogs to be leashed to preserve the area's environment and wildlife. He added that he carries treats with him to get owners to leash their dogs, "because they don't want their dog eating treats" from a stranger. In video shared on social media by Christian Cooper's sister and viewed by millions, Amy Cooper could be heard saying: "I'm taking a picture and calling the cops. I'm going to tell them there's an African American man threatening my life." NBC News does not know what happened before the recording begins. After the incident went viral, Amy Cooper was fired by the investment management company Franklin Templeton and charged with falsely reporting an incident in the third degree. Prosecutors dropped the case in February after she completed five "psychoeducation and therapy" sessions that helped her "appreciate that racial identities shape our lives" and that "we cannot use them to harm ourselves or others," Assistant District Attorney Joan Illuzzi said. Illuzzi added: "Mr. Cooper did not wish to participate in the criminal justice process, but we determined that the defendant's offense wasn't solely against one individual but was a threat to the community if allowed to go unchecked. "The simple principle is that one cannot use the police to threaten another and, in this case, in a racially offensive and charged manner," she said. "Given the issues at hand and Ms. Cooper's lack of criminal background, we offered her, consistent with our position on many misdemeanor cases involving a first arrest, an alternative, restorative justice resolution, designed not just to punish but to educate and promote community healing." In May, Amy Cooper sued her former employer, alleging that the company did not properly consider her fear for personal safety before it fired her. She also alleged in the federal complaint that Franklin Templeton terminated her based on her race and gender while failing to properly investigate the incident, which made national headlines. Franklin Templeton has previously characterized the lawsuit's claims as "baseless." https://www.yahoo.com/news/white-woman-viral-video-says-155900708.html |

Production sources tell TMZ Odenkirk and cast were shooting on the Sony Lot in Culver City Tuesday when the incident happened. We're told Odenkirk went down, and was immediately surrounded by crew members who called an ambulance. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ they got a call to the lot at 11:34 AM for a medical emergency. We're told it's unclear if he was conscious when he was transported, but a source close to Odenkirk tells us he is still in the hospital under the care of doctors. Odenkirk became a household name when he played attorney Saul Goodman on "Breaking Bad." "Better Call Saul" -- a spinoff of "Breaking Bad" -- is currently shooting its 6th and final season. No word on how far along Odenkirk and team are in finishing it up or if his medical situation will delay production in any capacity. |

Also, they hire big, former WWE names like Danielson because it allows them to get into international markets. TNA did the same when they had Hogan, Nash, Booker, Sting, etc in the mid-to-late 00's. That international source of income is what has kept them afloat since. |

Topic | Teacher who used N-Word in school keeps job |

Vote
Oswald, a tenured physical education teacher at Pleasant Lea Middle School, had admitted to using the N-word twice. But he said he only did so while filing a disciplinary report about a student who used the slur in the school cafeteria. He is the third teacher in the Kansas City metro in recent months to face discipline for using the slur in front of students. The Olathe school board in May fired baseball coach Pete Flood after he used a racial slur toward a Black player. And earlier this month, a Harrisonville high school science teacher was terminated after students testified that he made several racist comments in the classroom. Oswald is the first to keep his job. The school board voted 5-2 to reinstate him. The two Black members on the board, Megan Marshall and Rodrick Sparks, voted in favor of firing Oswald. On May 6, Oswald and another teacher overheard a female student say a racial slur, he previously told the school board. While filling out a discipline slip, Oswald quoted what the student had said, including the slur, and then read it aloud. She asked him to repeat it, and he said it again. Another student in the room also overheard the exchange. A district report, with details of the investigation into the incident, stated that the student was in shock because the word was offensive and she thought he would just use the term N-word. School officials learned about the incident after the father of the second student emailed a complaint, claiming that Oswald looked into my sons eyes and aggressively stated N____, what you looking at? But Oswald denied directing a racial slur toward anyone. And a district document stated that officials were considering terminating Oswald solely based on him repeating the N-word twice while disciplining the student, not what the email alleged. He said he was only following district protocol by repeating what the student had said, in order to confirm why she was being disciplined. During a hearing on the incident last month, Oswald and several other teachers testified that officials had instructed them to fill out the disciplinary report by including exactly what had happened and what was said. And then confirm the words verbally with the accused student. Obviously Im not going to say a racial slur to anyone, so I know not to not to direct a racial slur toward anyone, thats not me. Those words have never come through my lips toward anyone and, I mean, I just thought I was doing what I was supposed to, Oswald testified at the hearing. But Superintendent David Buck and district administrators who investigated the incident determined that Oswald should be fired for immoral conduct and willful violation of district policy. The administration feels that that conduct has jeopardized the safe and caring community at Pleasant Lea Middle School, said Michelle Basi, the attorney representing the school district. Mr. Oswald repeated this word twice despite numerous trainings on the importance of positive relationships, trauma-informed education, cultural sensitivity and social-emotional learning. Mr. Oswalds conduct in this instance caused harm to the students and the community. Many community members called for Oswald to be fired, arguing that a teacher should know better than to use a racial slur regardless of context. Another 2,000 people, though, have signed a petition supporting Oswald and demanding that he remain employed. Several supporters showed up outside a closed door meeting on Tuesday night, as the school board met to discuss the teachers fate. Oswald has been employed by the district for 27 years and has never faced disciplinary action during that time, his attorney Michael McDorman said. McDorman stated in a document detailing the incident that there is no written board policy instructing teachers not to repeat racial slurs or profane language when processing a student discipline referral. Contrary to the assertions of the Administration, the staff has not been trained to not say racial slurs, he said in the document. A district document states that during the investigation, Oswald acknowledged that the N-word is offensive and not appropriate to use because it could be harmful to students. The document states that Oswald has completed several years of diversity training, which teaches staff members that they may face consequences when they say or do something that intentionally or unintentionally causes offense to a student, family or community group. Buck and other district administrators testified at the hearing that repeating the N-word back to the student twice was inappropriate and a violation of board policies. District officials argued Oswald violated a policy requiring staff to maintain courteous and professional relationships with students, parents/guardians, other district employees and the public. They also argue Oswald willfully violated the policy requiring employees to communicate professionally and not use profanity. https://www.kansascity.com/news/local/education/article252753033.html |
