Education professionals from across the country are facing backlash after posting reactions online voicing disappointment that President Donald Trump was not killed in the Saturday shooting during the White House Correspondents' Association Dinner.

"Man, there's been a few creators on here saying that, like Friday or yesterday could have been the day, and then I wake up to that news, but not that news," a teacher for BrightPath identified as Corrine Baum said in the video. "We're going to have to pay really close attention to what they're trying to actually distract us from."

In a Monday statement to Fox News Digital, a spokesperson for BrightPath, an early learning and childcare provider in Cincinnati, said that Baum had been fired.

"Our organization does not tolerate and explicitly condemns any calls for violence," the spokesperson said. "The comments made online by this individual are deeply inconsistent with our values. The individual in question has been terminated."

Looks like a bunch of them are in hot water due to their on-line comments.

Ha! You might have the right to run your yap but that does not mean your employer has to keep you on.

Words have consequences.

Words have consequences.

If they were encouraging violence that is a crime.

Someone expressing their hatred, no matter how distasteful; should not lead to losing their livelihood. You either have a 1st Amendment or you don't. Be it vile, hated speech or speech the masses do not agree with, men did not die in protection of your nation so that speech can be chilled.

You will become like Canada before you know it. Your economy, horse and buggy.

Social Media is a great equalizer.

Smart enough to not say it out loud, dumb enough to post it online.

Its so weird how much MAGA nuts hate teachers and education in general.

It's not just MAGA, this has been a Republican talking point for 30 years, left wingers are in charge of education, indoctrination, etc., and made higher learning a bad thing in their minds. It's part of the foundation of their overall strategy to retain voters thru the Dumbing Down of America.

When they are in charge, we get this:

There's a reason that far-thinking folks put their kids in private schools.

And if you talk to those who hate any President they can't explain in words why they feel that way.

Only the wealthy who always did. Now lets talk about the other 99%. Did you send your kids to private school?
