5:10Now Playing"Memphis kindergarten teacher Tameka Gatewood is on unpaid suspension pending a hearing for comments she made about her students on Facebook, WMC-TV reports.
According to the station, her public posts include references to two of her Rainshaven Elemenary School kindergarteners arguing:
"How bout I blasted both of them. The girl in my class hair is nappy almost every day and the boy wears dirty clothes, face nasty and can't even read. They didn't bother nobody else when I got through with them."
"What do you think you're supposed to do? Bang! Bang! Shoot 'em up dammit! Just kidding!! For real tho - slap their ass back then Bang! Bang! Shoot 'em up dammit."* Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian break down the teacher's strange, inappropriate, and unfair statement and what is fair retribution.
