Catholic Teacher Fired Over Black Lives Matter’s Terrorism

TownHall.com (July 13) commented on on the June 3 firing of Timothy Gordon by Garces Memorial High School in Bakersfield, California, which is under the supervision of Fresno Diocese.

Gordon observed on Twitter.com that Black Lives Matter is a terrorist organisation, an assessment hinted to before by Rudy Giuliani, the FBI, and President Trump.

He hosts a biweekly podcast and publishes books. Over 100 students, most of them anti-Catholic or unhappy with their grades, signed a petition against him. Students were also bullied into signing.

Catholic teachings on abortion, homosex marriage and contraception are contradicted at the school.

According to Gordon, Black Lives Matter is popular among Americans due to its name. He concludes that if you want to start an American terrorist organisation call it “Don’t Kill Kittens.”

Gordon has six multi-race children with his Latina wife, including a girl born with a traumatic brain injury in need of an expensive care.

He is his family's sole breadwinner. The school knew that his firing would deprive his daughter of the health insurance she had because of her father's employment.

Whom are you talking about, Tim Gordon? What are you, braindead? Didn't you read the article?

"Who" , and yes, Tim Gordon is a fake Catholic tough guy. I know why he was fired, this is an old story.

Not only quarrelsome but in my opinion narcissistic, too. Gordon stages himself as a martyr to spark the fundraiser. He could try with going to work.

Incredible, the guy was fired, what part didn't you understand?

Breaking news: Sociopath is out of fashion. It has been replaced by narcissist, which is now the insult of choice.

Gordon is a quarrelsome character. Just think of the public fight he had with his former friend Taylor Marshall. I guess it was about money, too.

Yawn. Yet another dispute among Internet apologists.

Gordon knew what his employer thought and wanted. See it from their perspective. It would have been more honest if he had resigned himself. You can't work for a butcher shop and then go on vegan rallies.
The school is not responsible for his daughter's insurance. It's Gordon himself. At least Catholics must stop delegating the responsibility for their lives to authorities (employers, state).

Employment is not marriage. An employer is not a pater familias.

No, the school is not responsible for his daughter's insurance. A Christian nation would strive to ensure that all of its citizens had access to the healthcare they need without cost being a factor. Many traditionally Christian nations have accomplished this. One has not. Can you guess which?

@Wichita Knight healthcare isn't a right, but before the advent of the insurance companies, healthcare was inexpensive. That said, this Gordon guy is still better off than most.

Gordon's employment termination was unjust. He did nothing wrong as his comments on YouTube that got him fired was factual and true.

@Jmy1975 If there is a right to life, and healthcare is necessary for maintaining that life, I would argue that healthcare then becomes a right. One of the things Christ did most was heal the sick. Healthcare was obviously high on His list of priorities.

@Wichita Knight Jesus wasn't about healthcare, he was about converting souls to Him. He healed the sick to increase faith in Him. By the way, universal health care is a communist idea, something Jesus definitely isn't into.
