Teacher under fire for death tweet
PAROWAN, Utah (KSL) The Iron County School District is investigating one of its teachers for a post on his Twitter account. The Feb. 13 tweet, which appears to be posted to Parowan High School humanities teacher Brian Townsend’s page, referenced killing Republican senators.
When Brandon Harris saw it, he was outraged. “I really was genuinely surprised,” the former student said.
Townsend’s tweet read, “I only hope the next time a President incites a riot at the capitol, more Republican Senators are killed.”
Harris clapped back with the reply, “I’m coming for your job.” The tweet is now Townsend’s background image.
