(7,658 posts)for a similar reason, although not as bad. This teacher was just saying she'd "heard" (Gee, I wonder where?) that it MAY have been justified. Was gonna start yelling about the sick smear campaign the right wing (of course) has started against this poor young man, and how can she be that gullible to fall for it, but just immediately got up and walked out instead. Would have been a waste of energy to try to point out the utter bullshit of what she was saying. I no longer argue with republicans; I just avoid them whenever possible. Facts, logic, etc, are useless when talking to them, so I just don't anymore. That's just me, and I tip my hat to those who still try to show them where they're brainwashed and lied to...
Best wishes on the interview, and I'm not sure I could have resisted smacking your boss. At least my encounter was only someone who heard it "may" have been justified, and not "had" to shoot him. I'm really not sure I could have controlled myself in your case.
