Jason "Crash the Tea Party" Levin. . .BUSTED!!!

     In a turn of events that really surprised me, Jason Levin, the guy who started the whole "Crash the Tea party" movement, his been suspended from his job as a teacher, in the Beaverton, OR school district. This pending a review to see if he "crossed the line" by using district computers to spread his message of political mayhem or even worse, used the district computers to work on his "Crash the Tea Party" web site while he was on the school's payroll, probably using the "district-owned" computers in his class. This is the same guy who suggested he would do anything "just short of throwing rocks to bring down the Tea Party". Some more of his brilliant ideas included "asking people at the rally to sign a petition renouncing socialism. See just how much info you can get from these folks, name, address, DOB & Social Security number. The more data we can mine from the Tea Partiers, the more mayhem we can cause with it!" In a post, that has since been deleted, from his "Crash the Tea Party" web site, he called for his supporters to collect the Social Security numbers, along with other personal identifying information, about as many Tea Party supporters as possible at the many rallies that took place on Tax Day. An anonymous source within the district said parents at Conestoga Middle School were not really upset at Levin's anti-Tea Party activism, but that changed as his anti-Tea Party propaganda ramped in the past few days. The source now says: "parents have become outraged by the level of severity of his political activism," and now they have changed their tune and told the school board members that it has no place in a public school system!

     What does all this mean? A liberal teacher in a Middle school was more concerned with his political ideology than his job as a teacher. This guy was actually promoting a way to falsely obtain personal information from Tea Party members and use it to wreak havoc in their personal lives! First, this guy is supposed to be teaching the 6th, 7th and 8th grade students in his Media class about computers and technology. Instead, he is running around advocating trampling on our First Amendment Rights, and I bet he mentioned this garbage to his students! This is just another case of a liberal teacher teaching his students "what to think, instead of how to think!" Just imagine if I were to suggest that my fellow Tea Party members infiltrate the opposition's rallies, gather as much personal information about them as possible and use this information to "dismantle and destroy" the opposition... I bet the A.C.L.U. would be breathing down my neck and would have a court injunction in my lap!!!

     The good news is, the town of Beaverton's School District policy on the teacher's use of the District's electronic system plainly states: "The district's electronic communications system shall be used for educational purposes consistent with the district's mission, priorities and beliefs. Educational purposes do not include commercial use, use for personal financial gain or political advocacy." So as a result this teacher is on paid administrative leave, while the states "Teacher Standards and Practices" commission also conducts their investigation. Let's keep our eye on this, I bet he gets a slap on the wrist!!
