....from her job, that is. No need to go overboard like she did.
Gosh, but it's refreshing to see hateful actions actually have seriously just consequences:
An Elkhart County high school has fired a former assistant softball coach who created a stir when she suggested on Twitter that a Walkerton pizzeria should be burned down for its stance against catering a hypothetical same-sex wedding.
Jess Dooley, an assistant coach at Concord High School, posted the tweet last month after the owners of Memories Pizza said they would never discriminate against a gay person who wanted to eat at their restaurant, but would object to catering same-sex unions.
But since they don't do catering anyway, that's not a scenario that could ever arise in any case. If Miss Dooley wasn't such a h8er, she might have bothered to educate herself about that particular "nuance".
In a statement, Concord Community Schools Superintendent Wayne Stubbs said officials informed Dooley on Thursday that her contract was being terminated. The district’s board of directors finalized the move Monday.
“The promotion of harmful, illegal activity…by a lay coach is unacceptable,” Stubbs said in the statement. “She has learned a difficult lesson concerning the incorrect use of electronic communications.”
I don't think she's learned a damn thing, Mr. Stubbs. I'm sure she's still immensely proud of that tweet, and will now add you and your board of directors to her arson hit list for throwing in with those "snake-charmers".
In the tweet, Dooley said, “Who’s going to Walkerton, IN to burn down #memoriespizza w me?” The tweet was among the threats against Memories Pizza that prompted local police to increase patrols in downtown Walkerton, and the St. Joseph County prosecutor’s office is weighing possible criminal charges over the tweet.
One can only hope - and pray.
Jessica McBrier, a spokeswoman for the prosecutor’s office, said in an email that a charging decision could come by the end of the week.
Good hunting, gentles. Let Jess Dooley be made an example of. With extreme prejudice, I might add. It'd only be fitting.
Perhaps Memories Pizza could cater her sentencing party.
