The teacher in Paris was decapitated for teaching a class about the Pillars of Democracy-Freedom of Expression. She was killed by an 18 year old, Russian refugee. The attacker was shot dead by police Friday afternoon in Eragny, the same area where the body of the teacher was found. The attacker went to the school earlier that Friday asking students to point out the teacher so he knew who he was going after. On October 7th, the father of one of the students used facebook to call for action to have the teacher dismissed from the school. French President, Emmanuel Macron, said the teacher was a "victim of an Islamic attack". The President also said the educator was killed because she was teaching students freedom of speech, the freedom to believe and not believe.
I think the teacher shouldnt of been killed cause nobody should be killed or attacked because of the way they think or what they believe in. If i didnt agree with the teacher, I just wouldnt pay attention in the class and get over myself.
Do you think she shouldve been killed like this?
What would you have done if you did not agree with the teacher?

Kenzie,
Your summary is more of just a story summary and not a hot take. I want more of your thoughts and opinons. Also, you didn't reply to any student comments which is worth 30 points.
This teacher did not deserve to die. You might expect this sort of thing from freedomless countries, a teacher getting killed and maybe by the government. After doing a little more research this situation only gets creepier. We don't know if the Russian refugee attended the school at any point. That teacher could have been a complete stranger to him, whom he decided to kill because he didn't like what she was teaching.
The the teacher should not have benn killed no matter what her veiw points are. What if she didn't even agree with the class she was teaching? The class that she was teaching, based off the name, sound like a class that a US student wouldn't have to take since we have freedom of speech.
The teacher did not deserve to die. France is a democracy, so it makes sense why she would be teaching her students about elements to democracy. Her teaching the subject doesn't even mean she believes in it, but she is most likely required to teach about the country they live in. If I didn't agree with the teacher I would've told a friend or kept my thoughts to myself.
I dont think she should been killed becuase all she did was want to tell people about freedom. If I did not agree I would not want to kill her but I would dislike her. People should be killed because of their beleifes. Its not fair to die becuase sombody did not like them.
I personally think that the teacher should not have been killed but instead, be punished or been kicked out of the school. I will say the teachers do have freedom of speech maybe she shouldn't have been talking about it in school but it is what she believes in. If I did not agree with the teacher I wouldn't really listen or paid any attention to what she was talking about.
No because she shouldn't be killed because of what they believe in or the way they think. I think it was wrong for them to do what they did because she can believe in and think an way she wants because she is her own human being and she has the freedom to think anyway she ways.
Nobody deserves to die. This teacher was simply teaching her beliefs. Even though this goes agaisnt many people's beliefs she should not have been killed. I personally agree with the teacher. Every person in the world should have the right to have freedom or speech and freedom overall.
I don't think that the teacher should have been kiled at all, maybe it wasn't what she was suppose to be teaching but that still does not make it right for her to be killed. If I diagreed with the teacher I would most likely keep my thoughts to my myself because it's my teacher and I wouldn't want to disrespect my teacher and their opinions and beliefs.
I think that the teacher shouldn't have been killed like that, in matter of fact I don't think the teacher should've been killed at all. The teacher was teaching what she belived and thats okay todo. If I didn't agree with the teacher I would have just not paid attention to her and do other stuff during the class.
