Hell I am a teacher...you think if I slept with a student, got convicted and served my time they would let me teach again? What about after all the students who supported me and came forward talked about all the positive impact I have had on them? What about looking at how my students test on standardized test? No I would have to pick a new career and start over doing something else....Just want a little equity.



What I don't get is are you saying this is the way it is or the the way it should be?

I agree it's the way it is, that's why I like Vick getting a 2nd chance. It's a high profile situation where people aren't responsible on a forever basis for how they fucked up their life previously. And, maybe it will help break that prejudice in society at large.

The "just want a little equity" kind of sounds like you want Vick to have to suffer the same unfair fate too many other people do, just because he's successful.

Would you hold it against one of those teachers if they were able to get back into their beloved teaching field after having had to pay the price for the types of transgressions you mention? The pot first, the one-time sex with a student 2nd.

If you're saying it's the way it should be, Cameron pretty much taught me via PM that she'll bite into my ass relentlessly if I try to argue that...
