UPDATED: Unstable Dallas Teacher Who 'Shot' President Trump Suspended

A young woman in Dallas, TX is the latest citizen to creatively express her hatred for President Donald Trump.

Only this woman is ahigh school art teacher and her ‘expression’ involved shooting a projected image of Trump with a squirt gun screaming “DIE!” during the Presidential Inauguration … possibly in front of her students.

While our children are afforded zero tolerance, even being expelled from grade school for making their fingers or food into the very shape of a firearm, here’s a teacher using a squirt gun to “shoot” the newly Inaugurated President of the United States. Hypocritical much?

The woman posted the video on her Instagram account and has since deleted it, but not before it went viral on Twitter.

Before it was deleted, people took note that the teacher, who remains unidentified, captioned her virtual assassination of President Trump with “Watching the #inauguration in my classroom like…. #no #stop #denial #squirtgun #hypocrisy #powerless #saveusall #teachthembetter #atleastitsfriday”.

Christine Rousselle of Townhall said, “This teacher’s behavior is not normal, even in the era of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Screeching “die!” and repeatedly firing a squirt gun–heck, even having an easy-available squirt gun–are not normal behaviors and are not appropriate ways of coping with the results of the election. This wouldn’t be acceptable to do to any political candidate, be it George W. Bush, Barack Obama, Mitt Romney, Hillary Clinton, or Donald Trump.”

It is unclear as to who shot the video of the teacher’s virtual assassination as well as whether or not her students were in the classroom at the time of her meltdown.
