Las Vegas teacher disciplined for denying Holocaust


Las Vegas, NV - A teacher at the Northwest Career and Technical Academy is on suspension through Christmas for telling students that the Holocaust never happened.

Lori Sublette allegedly also told them last month historic photographs were doctored, text books are inaccurate, and that the Nazis lacked the technology to kill so many people.

"I was blown away," says Henderson Rabbi Sanford Akselrad. "When she distorts the Holocaust she not only insults the Jewish people but she sends the message to the students that history can be revised, distorted."

The Clark County School District says Sublette won't return to school until after Christmas, pending further action.

[Statistical]

1. Shouldn't return to school ever. Period.

[Le Taz Hot]

2. "Disciplined?"

How about fired? :wtf:

[Heidi]

3. The school district needs to free her to contemplate her bigotry.

She has no business teaching young people.

5. Exactly. nt

4. I can think of a few places she needs to spend a lonely night in.

Auschwitz
Dachau
Bergen-Belsen

[gopiscrap]

6. Maybe Gitmo

Because we don't waterboard either (sarcasm included)

7. i was thinking more of a night alone with the ghosts.

My parents took me to Dachau in the 50's. I was about 7 or 8 at the time time so I didn't really understand what had happened there. But what I did feel was a sense of evil.

11. That was my thought exactly

And she should be required to read "The Diary of Anne Frank" and view all of the movies made by the SS.

8. Why would she ever be allowed back?

She should be encouraged to become a teacher in Iran. They would embrace her.

9. I was shitcanned supposedly over a clerical error,

but somebody like that gets "suspended."

She must have relatives in the school district.

10. The correct terminology here should be "FIRED"

[tonysam]

13. No, she is "disciplined." It means just what it says.

She hasn't been dismissed or terminated or fired as of yet.

Interesting comment in the comments:

As a student of the NWCTA, I'd like to point out that Mrs. Sublette isn't exactly the most loved teacher; in fact, she falls low on the list. This could easily be a ploy by a student who holds a great deal of animosity toward her and reported a slightly improper statement. Whereas I am sure that something to the effect of what was reported was said, I don't believe that it happened as expressed. If she truly said what you all believe, I agree that she should be relieved of her position, but I also think that the great deal of you are only looking from the surface and have as little information as the reporting station who went both ways with their story and left you without any true answer to the issue, proving that none of you are any smarter than the supposed "moron" of a teacher you insult so and are only following the media machine that leads you to an empty story lacking fact. I implore you to find fact before passing judgment and hope that all of you would seek justice instead of the quick demise of a teacher that possibly did nothing wrong. Regardless of what we know, let alone can prove, any statements against any group of people are improper and unjust. I would hope that none have to deal with the insult that has been brought up by both sides of people with this issue, the insulted and the supposed insulter.

It could be the teacher writing this comment, but I doubt it.

14. I know. The correct word should be "FIRED"

[tonysam]

21. Only if the allegations are true. We have only one side.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

12. I'm sure she'll blame her job loss on.......

.....you guessed it....the Jews.

[LeftishBrit]

16. Yep. 'Those evil joooos are SUPPRESSING me!"

[shadesofgray]

15. "Disciplined?" She should have been fired immediately.

[paulsby]

17. nobody with civil service protection should be

"fired immediately"

it amazes me how many people here who are SUPPOSEDLY pro-labor jump on this "fire her (or him) immediately)" in cases like this.

she deserves due process.

[Scurrilous]

18. K & R

:thumbsup:

[varelse]

19. She should be fired if the allegations against her are true (nt)

[donheld]
