I just watched a video on a kid in NYC named Osama. He said that he has endured name-calling from his teachers for years. They would say things to him about them thinking he would be hiding in a cave somewhere and stuff like that. That's just sad that teachers were doing this. Apparently the principal told his parents that they should transfer him to a private Islamic school. That guy should be fired. The teachers should be too. I just don't understand where they find some of these people.

Maybe his parents should file a lawsuit against the school for discrimination. No child should be abused mentally or physically by a teacher. Teachers are surpose to set an example for their students. Heck of a example she is setting. And the principal, what a joke. His job is to make sure that the teacher is ther to do her job. Apparently neither of them are able to do their jobs properly so they need to be brought before the school board so that they can be fired.

This is downright pathetic. The school should be sued for mental anguish on the child. Who knows how much that child has been affected in life. It's bad enough that he shares a first name with somebody that Americans are taught to hate anything associated with, but to have somebody in the position of authority like a teacher bullying you as well? That's downright scarring.
I think the principal should legally be forced to change his first name to Adolf. Then told to transfer to a school outside of North America and Europe if he can't endure the consequences. The teachers should require sensitivity training and be suspended without pay until it is complete. (Maybe not without pay, but cut their pay by 10% for 10 times the amouint of time it takes to complete so they effectively lose their pay for that period of time).
