On November 3, AEA President Marisol Garcia released the following statement in response to death threats against educators in the Vail School District:
"Over the weekend, bad-faith actors mobilized an online mob against educators in the Vail School District. We are horrified by the barrage of death threats that followed, and we urge law enforcement to fully investigate all threats and protect the Vail community.
Vail educators deserve privacy and grace during this time. All of us lose when our classrooms become the site of political fights."
On Nov. 2, "The Charlie Kirk Show" podcast host, Blake Neff, posted on X.com about how he had "..chosen to delete my posts/RTs yesterday about the math teachers with the blood soaked shirts."
>The visual of the shirts was so incredibly evocative of recent events that I found it totally implausible they didn’t know what they were doing, but especially with evidence they’ve worn them before I realize that is at best a very unprovable assertion about people’s inner mental state. And of course, as someone extremely close to those events I must recognize I’m far more primed to see references to them than others are.
