Anti-Semitic Occupy LA Protester Fired By School District, Media Mostly Mum
An anti-Semitic Occupy LA protester reported by NewsBusters Sunday has been fired by the Los Angeles Unified School District due to her remarks.
KTLA-TV logged the following report Tuesday (extremely offensive video follows with commentary):
Notice how Patricia McAllister not only doubled down on her anti-Semitism, but also the representative from Occupy LA chose not to disavow her comments.
Quite the contrary, according to the Occupy LA representative interviewed, it was McAllister's first amendment right to say such things. "No, it doesn't erode our credibility, not one bit."
Keep in mind the LAUSD did disavow its former employee's comments in a statement released Tuesday:
Her comments, made during non-work time at a recent protest rally, were her private opinions and were not made in the context of District services. At LAUSD, we recognize that the law is very protective of the freedom of speech rights of public employees when they are speaking as private citizens during non-working time.
I further emphasize to our students, who watch us and look to us for guidance, to be role models and to represent the ideals by which LAUSD lives, that we will never stand for behavior that is disrespectful, intolerant or discriminatory.
Now imagine for a moment McAllister was a white Tea Partier that got fired for making these comments, and a representative of the Tea Party chose not to disavow them.
The press would be all over this, wouldn't they?
McAllister probably would have been interviewed by all the major television news outlets and print organizations making her the poster child of the Tea Party.
Newsweek and Time magazines would probably have her on the cover of their next issues with expansive articles addressing racism and anti-Semitism in the movement.
But when such a person supports protests the media back?
Not so much.
From what I have found, the first report of McAllister's firing was made by the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday afternoon. Since then, apart from Los Angeles news outlets, the San Francisco Chronicle, the Huffington Post, and the Associated Press state and local wire, there has been no major media reporting of McAllister's termination.
Absolutely nothing.
How totally predictable.

Else you'd be out of work!
Nice find....and I'm thrilled to hear that big mouth lost her job. Of course, she'll just sue, and get it back, with back pay and damages.

.....and she's also likely to say she was fired because of racism!
She isn't intelligent enough

She isn't intelligent enough to even work in a liberal school district. I thought black are incapable of being racist, Harry , Danny, where are you?

Makes my day.
But, always remember, It's the Tea Party that's racist. Just ask Piers Morgan.

KTLA news director and Liz Habib (the woman in the studio) reading a few twitter comments is HERE.
It is clear that the poor excuse for a reporter,Susan Hirasuna, is in agreement with the Jew Hater's comments, as Hirsuna allows her to go on ad nauseam, and at the end of the interview defends the Jew Hater's comments with studio reporter Jeff Michael.
If you read some of the Fox Los Angeles Facebook comments or the comments accompanying this MyFoxLA piece, it is unsettling and disgusting the number of Jew Haters (insects) that come out of the woodwork. These insects not only are part of the Leftist group who Occupy [insert name], but are the Leftist who comprise a large part of Obama's and the Dems radical Left base.
Debbie Schlussel also is outraged at the forum given to this Jew-Hating insect on KTLA-11. Read her piece titled OUTRAGE: Occupy LA’s Jew-Hating Teacher Fired, But FOX Gives Forum for Anti-Semitism
Another sad aspect to this story is that Jews, who voted 78% for Obama, will watch this video and still support the Occupation and vote for Obama.
True did you notice she said that one sign...

What do you expect when you get the American Communist party and The American Nazi or er excuse me Mr. President sir the American National Socialist party endorsing this crowd? The Anarchists love this and I hope when middle class America watches this every night on the news they picture Obama leading the parade. I wonder why these college age if not college educated and seemingly well to do youths aren't out looking for work? Like my parents did during the last depression of the 30's and 40's? Seems that JFKS words of "Ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country " Has changed to Gimmee gimmee, gimmee. If I lose my job tomorrow, I'll sweep floors, pump gas or pick lettuce before going to the streets to demand that the government has to gimmeee. By the way nothing wrong with those jobs , no small jobs, just small people, who think they are above work If you have to feed your family go to work. And the quickest way right now to get to work is to fire the socialist in the White House.
Don't let the bastards grind you down."
