Carl Paladino won’t accept the verdict of the Buffalo school board that he should resign.

…Paladino last week told a Buffalo alternative newspaper he wanted to see the president dead of mad cow disease and the first lady living with a gorilla in Zimbabwe.

Having first said the comments had “nothing to do with race”, he also said they were examples of “old-style humour” intended “to wake people up … to get people’s attention”…

At a special meeting on Thursday, the Buffalo school board voted 6-2 for a resolution asking the state education commissioner to remove Paladino, the ninth member, if he did not resign within 24 hours. More than 70% of the district is non-white, according to the resolution…

Members of the audience stood up and cheered when the resolution was approved.

Paladino, who did not attend, has said he will not resign. On Wednesday he told a local radio station: “I’m the agent of change. I’m the guy that exposed the underbelly of their corrupt and dysfunctional school system, and they want me gone from the scene.”

    Hey Carl,
    As a school board member, you certainly must embrace learning experiences.
    Treat this as a teachable moment — words matter!

    He deserves a good kicking in the ass regardless if he’s resigning or not.

    Here’s my old-style of humour: hurry up go kill yourself so we can celebrate and invite you to it!

      My, you’re angry tonight…

      • Larry Schmitt December 29th, 2016 at 22:46

        And rightfully so. This asshole’s idea of “humor” is not funny at all.

        • whatthe46 December 30th, 2016 at 00:04

          it is among his racist friends. i think he’s auditioning for a spot in tRumps cabinet. or for the spot that is now vacant due to baby mamma’s drama.

          • oldfart December 30th, 2016 at 01:01

            I think, he thinks, he might just try for a run for governor of NY.

            • whatthe46 December 30th, 2016 at 02:00

              i think, no, i want, to kick the ass of every pos in the GOP. lucky i don’t have 3 wishes. if i did, it most certainly wouldn’t be death. i talking some mighty nasty ass revenge. probably why i would never get 3 wishes.

          j was venting on another thread as well…can’t blame (him), really, as I’ve been seething a bit myself lately.

      • oldfart December 30th, 2016 at 01:03

        I’ve been on a slow simmer…
        How are YOU holding up so far ? ;)

    • whatthe46 December 29th, 2016 at 22:39

      fine, don’t resign. fire his ass and that way he loses any pension he would still receive.

      • Larry Schmitt December 29th, 2016 at 23:15

        I think he was elected. It takes the court to get rid of him. If they have the guts to do it.

        • whatthe46 December 29th, 2016 at 23:20

          certain positions shouldn’t be held with elections & if so, it should not take an “act of congress” to get rid of them when they clearly are not representative of the people. different story with tRump, it will take an act of congress with some damn balls to do the right thing. with tRump, he’s not even representing this country.

    “Old-style humor” AKA good old-fashioned racism. Like it was back in the good old days. You know, minstrel shows, black face, good, harmless making fun of the darkies. No one gets hurt, right?

  5. Budda December 30th, 2016 at 05:22

    This clown as been around for a while, WHY? Who elects him? Oh, right, Dump supporters and other idiot racists.

  6. fedupmd December 30th, 2016 at 10:32

    Good for Paladino. Make the leftist socialists look like idiots and have them go to the state for action.

  7. oldfart December 30th, 2016 at 11:32

    Crazy carl, he’s the guy who threatened reporters if they didn’t leave his daughter alone, when he ran for governor…such an upstanding caring person. /s
    The sooner the school board removes him, the better.
