Indiana teacher sparks fury after telling 5th-grade students they’re ‘acting like monkeys in a zoo’

I frequently tease young kids about acting like monkeys but then again I am not speaking to yoofz of colorz.

An Indiana middle school teacher sparked fury when he allegedly told his students that they were “acting like monkeys in a zoo.”

The educator, who teaches fifth grade at the Merrillville Intermediate School, made the remark during class on Feb. 24, which forced his students to go straight to the principal while incensed parents brought up the incident at a subsequent board meeting, according to the Chicago Tribune.

Dexter Suggs, who has served as the school superintendent for the past two years and is black, said the teacher’s words were not meant to be interpreted as racist – but suspended with pay pending an investigation.

“He said he was frustrated with the students’ behavior and he did apologize, unprompted by administrators,” Suggs said.

To paraphrase Jared Taylor on Twitter, based on the demographics of Merrillville Intermediate School they probably were in fact acting like monkeys….

This is pretty standard stuff. A bunch of 5th grade kids who you can safely assume were indeed acting like monkeys and the teacher understandably was frustrated because they are not permitted to get these “students” in line. It is certain that the teacher in question is White and further it is quite likely they are teaching in a school in the northwest corner of Indiana, next to Chicago, out of some misguided notion that they will be like the teachers in movies that discover the rough and tumble black kids in their school really have hearts of gold and are geniuses just waiting to be given a chance.

If you called a group of all White 5th graders “a bunch of monkeys”, would anyone be offended? If not, why not?

As I like to say, stereotypes exist for a reason.

    The “black perpetually offended class” is the most annoying of the entire “perpetually offended class.”

    A classroom of 5th grade black kids? You would think by age 16 they would act differently!

    I would love to be a substitute teacher game warden in this chimp school district.

    I’d have videos of screeching apes and chimpanzees on loop with a big 5 gallon carboy of jenkem fermenting on the window ledge.

    The fourth grade teacher made me LOL with your spine used to be your monkey tail.
    He confiscated my little yellow ball shooting STEN gun but Pappy got it back.
    A HS bud was a substitute school teacher and he found some rare basketball cards that Rastus left behind, sold at the card shop.

    They got angry because they knew it was true.

    Look at a negro, and look at a white, which looks more like a monkey?

    So simple even a monkey could figure it out.

      They look so much like apes that an ape in Congress had to hold up a sign “black people aren’t apes” in hope of convincing us that they aren’t actual apes.

    Well, niggers being the most racist cocksuckers on the planet see a white person using the word nigger as a crime worthy of death. Maybe it’s time we give them the “equality” they demand and starting smokin’ every nigger who utters the forbidden word. We’d be outta targets in 48 hours.

    Sixty years ago I was hired to teach 6th and 7th graders. They were all white. They sounded like monkeys. They acted like monkeys. They looked like monkeys. Hell, they were monkeys.

    Does anyone remember years ago when Howard Cosell said, look at that little monkey go during a football broadcast?
    He paid dearly for that.
