美国中学老师因“批评特朗普”，竟被各种恐吓威胁……
美国德州的一名中学教师，在给学生布置的课堂作业中“批评了特朗普”。结果……
本来，该教师所在的学区已经私下对这个事件进行了处理。
可当地时间周二，美国德州共和党众议员Briscoe Cain在知晓这个事情已经解决的情况下还是将部分事实公布在网上 。

这导致这名教师的人身安全受到威胁 。

A state representative that issued a stinging press release calling for the resignation of a Goose Creek CISD teacher over a controversial assignment, which led to threats on the teacher and district officials, was apparently already aware how the district planned to handle the situation.
一名国会议员发布了一则尖锐的新闻稿，号召辞退一名鹅溪综合独立学区的教师。这名教师给学生布置了一份带有争议的作业，导致她和学区的官员受到了威胁。而该议员在发布消息前，显然已知道学区计划怎样处理这件事了。

Briscoe Cain在脸书上发帖称，鹅溪独立学区的一名七年级教师，给学生布置的推理阅读作业 中，含有一篇题为“特朗普反美国价值”的文章。

The text referred to President Trump’s “insensitive remarks toward other racial and cultural groups” and one multiple-choice answer asked students to choose whether “Donald Trumpshould not be president.”
这篇文章将矛头指向特朗普“针对其他种族和文化群体”的不恰当言论，其中一道多选题的答案还要求学生选择“唐纳德⋅特朗普不该当总统”。

这份作业是一个名叫Chris Felder的家长发现并分享给Cain的。
“This was an assignment my 7th-grade daughter received that I found to be very out of place, to say the least,” Cain quoted Felder on Facebook.
“这是我七年级女儿的作业，豪不夸张地说，我觉得这非常不合适，”Cain在脸书上引用Felder的话。
“This type of non-factual rhetoric has no place in our schools regardless of who the president is. My children have experienced great teachers in the classroom, but have also had to put up with those who see their role as indoctrinators, not educators. As a fellow graduate of Goose Creek ISD, I’m embarrassed that this is what our District tolerates.”
“这种非事实性的修辞不适合出现在学校教学中，不管谁是美国总统。我孩子的学校有经验丰富的好老师，但也不得不忍受那些不重视传道受业、却爱给学生灌输“洗脑”的人。我作为鹅溪独立学区的毕业生，我为我们学区感到尴尬。”

而Cain称这位教师亵渎了每一位家长神圣的信任 。
“They have lost the privilege of being in a classroom with Texas children, and forfeit the title of teacher. No teacher should attempt to indoctrinate a child to their ideology, no matter who is in the White House.”
“他们丧失了教育德克萨斯孩子的权利，有辱教师的头衔。无论是谁执掌白宫，教师都不该试图向孩子灌输他们自己的意识形态。”

根据贝城太阳报的消息，当地时间周二，Cain发布新闻稿称，这名教师应当被解职 。
对于这个事件，校方负责宣传的Beth Dombrowa告诉雅虎新闻：这个教学材料（指该教师布置的作业）并未获得过校方的认可，而这个事件已经在学校层面得到了解决 。
“…Clearly, the teacher did not use good judgment or did not review the materials that she received from an outside source thoroughly,” she said.
“很明显，这位教师没有做出好的判断，或者没有仔细地检查她从外面的渠道获得的教学材料，”她说道。
“The matter was addressed with the teacher and the materials will no longer be used. The matter has been settled at the campus level, as appropriate.”
“这个事件已经通知了这名教师，这个材料也不会再使用。这个事件已经在学校层面妥善地得到了解决。”

不过，Dombrowa透露，众议员发布新闻稿并在社交媒体上曝光这个事件的部分事实，却没有呈现整个事件的全貌 ，导致他们收到了很多骚扰电话和恐吓电话。
“Many of those calls were deeply disturbing and threatening in nature. While we all agree that the particular passage should not have been used, the teacher made a simple error in judgment and had no ill intent. Like all of us, teachers are human and make mistakes from time to time.”
“许多电话令人深感不安，有着威胁恐吓的性质。虽然我们都同意这个文章不该用于学生作业，但这名教师只是单纯犯了一个判断上的错误，她并没有恶意。就像我们所有人一样，教师也是人类，会时不时犯错。”

许多家长也表示，Cain不应该插手这样一件已经私下处理掉了的事件 ，再从中挑起事端。这样做，不仅侵犯了教师的隐私，还将她置于危险之中 。
“Cain overstepped his boundaries,” Christina Hutchison whose daughter is a 7th-grade student in the district, tells Yahoo Lifestyle. “Still, no matter the president, we should respect the office. And kids are impressionable — they may interpret the essay as fact without input from their parents.”
“Cain越界了，”有个七年级女儿的Christina Hutchison告诉雅虎新闻。“无论谁当总统，我们都应该尊重白宫。孩子们很容易受到影响——他们可能会在没有父母指导的情况下将这篇文章理解为事实。”
And mom Susan Cummings tells Yahoo Lifestyle, “I’m disappointed that an elected official would use social media so irresponsibly and disingenuously. He put the teacher in danger because anyone in our community can easily identify [the teacher]. That’s a severe invasion of privacy. It was like throwing a bomb.”
而一位名叫Susan Cummings的母亲告诉雅虎，“我很失望，一位我们选举出来的官员会如此不负责任、不诚实地利用社交媒体。他将这位教师置于危险之中，因为我们社区任何人都能很容易地辨认出这名教师的身份。那是很严重的侵犯隐私行为。这种行为就像投掷了一枚炸弹。”

对于这些评论，Cain在一份声明中表示，他很“高兴”这个事件可以得以曝光，那是对公民话语权的鼓励。但他并没有对那位教师所受到的威胁作出直接的回应。
