Teacher fired over 3rd grade students' get well notes to cop murderer Mumia Abu-Jamal 

By Associated Press, May 13, 2015, Philly.com

ORANGE, N.J. (AP) - A New Jersey school district has fired a teacher whose third-grade class wrote get-well letters to a sick prison inmate convicted of killing a Philadelphia police officer.

Orange School Superintendent Ronald Lee tells NJ.com (http://bit.ly/1PHo9lW) the board of education made its decision Tuesday night after hearing from Marilyn Zuniga and several of her supporters.

Zuniga was suspended last month after telling the board she had made a mistake.

Mumia Spurs Bill To Block Publicity-Seeking Criminals

By Amy Worden, Oct. 07, 2014, Inquirer Harrisburg Bureau

HARRISBURG - A day after Mumia Abu-Jamal addressed graduates of a Vermont college, a House committee advanced a bill to give the family of the police officer he was convicted of killing a way to shut him up.

The bill, believed to be the first of its kind, would let crime victims or their relatives seek injunctive relief if the criminals that harmed them seek publicity from the crime in any way.

Rep. Mike Vereb (R., Montgomery) called it unconscionable that Abu-Jamal - serving life for the 1981 slaying of Philadelphia officer Daniel Faulkner - could get national exposure with a "taxpayer-funded rant."

"The words of the victims should be louder than the criminals who sit behind concrete and steel," said Vereb. He drafted the bill after revelations that Goddard College invited Abu-Jamal to speak to graduates Sunday in prerecorded remarks.

Unrepentant Convicted Cop-Killer Mumia To Speak At Commencement 



By Katie Pavlich, Oct. 2, 2014, Townhall.com

In 1982, former black panther Mumia Abu-Jamal was convicted of murdering Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner. He stood over Faulkner after a traffic stop and shot him multiple times, including in the face as he laid dying on the ground. Abu-Jamal never denied the killing during his trial. He, and his supporters, are still unapologetic for Faulkner's death. The far-Left has turned Abu-Jamal into a hero and so-called political prisoner. He even has a street named after him in France.

Although he still sits in prison carrying out a life-sentence (his death penalty sentence was overturned by the work of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund and by President Obama's former DOJ Civil Rights Division nominee Debo Adegbile in 2011), Abu-Jamal has been invited to give the commencement address for Vermont's Goddard College this weekend. The worst part? He was handpicked by the students. More from the Washington Times:

The college said Abu-Jamal’s speech has been prerecorded by Prison Radio.
“As a reflection of Goddard’s individualized and transformational educational model, our commencements are intimate affairs where each student serves as her or his own valedictorian, and each class chooses its own speaker,” Goddard College Interim President Bob Kenny said in a statement. “Choosing Mumia as their commencement speaker, to me, shows how this newest group of Goddard graduates expresses their freedom to engage and think radically and critically in a world that often sets up barriers to do just that.” 
The college said Abu-Jamal received a bachelor of arts degree from the school in 1996, completing his coursework by mail.
