Squealing Lefties

When dealing with the unhinged mind, there really isn’t any logical response to actions taken by those fearful of being labeled. These individuals are the reason that this country is in the terrible shape it is in now; fear of being called a name or not being liked.

The actions taken by the school board display a pasta spine fecklessness that should embarrass a girlyman.

If the coach decided to immolate a small nun at halftime, that probably would have met with approbation.

Academic Magnet football coach Walpole fired

Academic Magnet head football coach Bud Walpole was fired Monday amidst controversy surrounding a postgame celebration allegedly deemed inappropriate.

Charleston County School District released a statement Tuesday revealing, “There was an allegation related to inappropriate postgame celebrations by the Academic Magnet High School (AMHS) football team. An investigation was conducted and, as a result of the investigation, the head football coach will no longer be serving as a coach for Charleston County School District.”

The celebration in question reportedly involves players smashing a watermelon after the game. The act became a postgame ritual of sorts as Academic Magnet went on a six-game winning streak this season.

Mike Miller, a Charleston County School Board member, reportedly told  Live 5 News that a parent from an opposing school came to him and complained about the watermelon act and that the kids were making monkey sounds.

Academic Magnet is off to its best start in program history this season at 6-2 overall and tied for second place in Region VI-2A. Walpole was 29-70 in 10 seasons as head coach of Academic Magnet.[snip]

In the statement, Griffin says, “Coach Walpole was fired because his team had a harmless tradition that was made to seem prejudice. … They had a post-game ritual of smashing a watermelon and eating it after every victory. A parent on an opposing team deemed this act as racist and the school board decided to interrogate the players. These high school athletes were forced into a room one by one and questioned about their “racist” acts. Since when is eating watermelon racist? Since when does a school board have the right to interrogate students without notifying their parents? The way this situation has been handled can only be described as despicable.”
