nice. maybe they can do lynchings next.






A skit portraying the assassination of President-elect Donald Trump by two 10th grade students at Marshall High School provoked anger and dismay from the parents of a student who watched it unfold last week.


Harold and Melinda Bean said that in the skit, entitled “The Assassination of Donald Trump,” one of the boys made a gunfire sound effect with his cell phone as the other boy, portraying Trump, fell to the ground in mock death.



All of the students were required to submit descriptions of their English class presentations beforehand to be approved by their teacher, the parents said, but these two students in particular changed their skit afterward.

Kids. Living in Texas, you'd think they would know enough to bring a rifle or handgun.

Grade? F!

Donald Trump’s mock assassination draws ire at Texas high school

Donald Trump’s mock assassination draws ire at Texas high school

Two Texas students and their teacher were reprimanded after the 10th-graders performed a skit portraying the assassination of President-elect Donald Trump.

One of the boys used a gunfire sound effect from a cellphone while the other student, who was portraying Trump, fell to the ground, according to the San Antonio Express-News. The skit, titled “The Assassination of Donald Trump,” was performed as a class presentation last week for the students’ English class at John Marshall High School in San Antonio.

The boys’ teacher instructed her students to create and perform a skit following their study of Shakespeare and asked them to submit their scripts for approval, Brian Woods, superintendent for the Northside Independent School District, said in a statement on Friday.

Woods said the two students changed their skit after their original script had been submitted, and the teacher did not know beforehand that they planned on performing a mock assassination of Trump.

The teacher stopped the skit immediately, Woods said.

“I want to be clear: NISD does not condone the action of these students or anyone else who would threaten violence,” Woods said.
