If we can't all agree that Florida looks like a penis, then the divisions in this country are way too deep.
Teacher Ryan Haraughty was fired from from Mission Valley Middle School after drawing a map of the United States with a plump, penis-like Florida and making an off-hand remark about the state's level of excitement.
Go figure middle school students jumped on the juvenile humor. Haraughty told Fox 4 that he tried to blow it off.
"I drew Florida out of proportion," said Haraughty. "The kids jump all over stuff like that, 'Oh Mr. Haraughty, Florida is all wrong. OK, whatever, not thinking, I said, 'Florida got excited.' And right after, I'm thinking, you know, but I decided I'm not going to dwell on it."
The district axed him for the comment, saying he created a sexually hostile environment.
Haraughty's students aren't happy.
On Facebook, they have started the "Ryan Haraughty Appreciation Society of America."
They've also started a petition to dump Mission Valley Middle School's principal, the Shawnee Mission Board of Education, superintendent and cabinet.
With only 56 signatures, I'm guessing that's not going to happen.
Haraughty says he'll appeal his firing.

Internet users have the technology with which to reach all of those people, all this at your fingertips, you can change anything, go for it bad boys!!!!!!
Any updates on this story? There was a reference to prior "incidents" but I haven't seen any details about them.
This story made http://detentionslip.org ! Check it out for all the crazy headlines from our schools.
The BEST way to beat these education fakes, that is, the School Board, Principal, and administrators is to purposely bomb the state assessment test when it is given. That is all these phony educators care about. Hit them where it hurts. Send a message that students and teachers are what make a school, not mean spirited leaders and crack pot parents.
They should fire whomever teaches English. And if I recall my days as a sociopathic public education student, a library raid is about as good of a peaceful protest as one can get. Simple: every student checks out their book limit, essentially removing every book from the shelves. Then keep renewing until the point is made.
While they're at it, maybe the school needs to remove Florida and other phallic territories (Sweden, anyone?) from the map before anyone else makes an off-color comment and corrupt our youth! Will someone think of the children?!
Yah... the one that started the petition would infact be Naiomi (sorry if i speeled your name wrong). Today The district admin came to talk to us 8th hour and the same person says "Wasn't the thing they tryed him for removed in 2008?" That was hillarius, right above my question "could you please define "sexual banter" Mrs. Chatman?"
I'm not sure who told, but i think it was Hunter with the leg brace.

I go to Mission Valley to.... one girl started a petition with over 250 signature and presented it to the Board Meeting Monday night. Funny how they "forgot" to give it back to her...
I go to Mission Valley and i know the person who started the petition and I'll have you know there were over 250. I'm confident that Mr. Haraughty will come back with all the support he has.
If I were one of his students, I'd want to know which worthless little prick narced him out. I'd make sure that the entire school knew who it was, so that he or she would get the beating that he or she deserves.
