Governor condemns tweet offering a 'bounty' on teachers

Republican Gov. Chris Sununu on Thursday denounced a conservative group’s offer to pay $500 to the first person who “catches” a public school teacher violating New Hampshire’s new limits on the discussion of systemic racism and other topics.

Sununu ... backed language inserted into the state budget ’that would prohibit teaching children that they are inferior, racist, sexist or oppressive by virtue of their race, gender or other characteristics.

After the state Department of Education set up a website last week to collect complaints against teachers, The New Hampshire chapter of 'Moms for Liberty' tweeted “We’ve got $500 for the person that first successfully catches a public school teacher breaking this law.”

“The Governor condemns the tweet referencing ‘bounties’ and any sort of financial incentive is wholly inappropriate and has no place,” Sununu’s spokesperson, Ben Vihstadt, said in an email.

Educated people always have the upper hand in society, and The Ignoratti can't handle that.

This might be the public sununu, but I would put money on the likelihood that he supports this privately.

There’s a bill in the NH house titled freedom from vaccines. We are becoming Texas of the north. It’s revolting.

At least sununu is not challenging Maggie Hassan. If we lose our dem senators we’re fucked.
