Webb City R-7, police clamp down on Ashley Duke protest


Plans for a peaceful protest to support Webb City High School communication arts teacher Ashley Duke, who was placed on administrative leave last week after making a comment about the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk were squelched today by Webb City R-7 officials.

On her Facebook page, organizer McKenna Jade said the planned all-day protest, which was scheduled to begin at 7:30 a.m. at the Central Office parking lot, was greeted this morning by school officials and a sizable number of Webb City police officers.







School officials said the protest couldn't be held there to protect students and learning, Jade said.

The law permits school officials to exclude protesters if they feel they would cause a disruption of school activities. Because of the importance of education, school buildings are treated differently by the law than other buildings.

Duke was removed from her classroom after posting the comment "I don't support what happened to Charlie Kirk. Charlie Kirk supported what happened to Charlie Kirk."

After the removal, district sources said Webb City High School students were pulled out of class to be interviewed about whether they had been indoctrinated by Duke.

Since 1990, far-right extremists have committed far more ideologically motivated homicides than far-left or radical Islamist extremists, including 227 events that took more than 520 live

Is this the same Leftist Liberal, Real Name - Mckenna J Pulsipher - AKA - McKenna Jade, who supports Palestine, has multiple color hair, never missed a meal, a pride flag, wants to disrupt the schools for her personal assault on education, her agenda, and her lifestyle and was picked up this year for driving without auto insurance?

Calling Parents - Nazis - "I have a huge problem with this—parents choosing Nazis over their kids TEACHERS who choose THEIR KIDS every single day!!"

People are Tired of - McKenna Jade, who has been spreading negativity among the community, has led us to campaign against her destructive habits. She is known for discrediting business owners, harassing school bus drivers, and defaming police officers. Her damaging actions are not limited to individuals; businesses and hardworking people working regular hours have also been victims of her spiteful words and actions.

Again, We all have Freedom of Speech, but Consequences and Accountability - come into the Picture when a Man is gunned down for his Opinions, Beliefs, and Non-Violent Debates and is Murdered in front of his Wife and 2-Children - when you own or are employed by a Business or a Government Agency - they have the Right to Fire you for your Comments that may impede their livelihood or which violates their conduct codes or ethics.
Ashley Duke is not above being Fired!

Ridiculous maga cult BS. Creating a martyr out of a horrendous event for the purpose of sowing fear and division so the purveyors of hate can maintain their status among the lowly cult followers. We all see it maga and it has the same opics and blueprint that started nazi germany. PS..statistics confirm that rightwingnuts are more violent and murder innocents more often than libs, Muslims and all other groups almost combined. Fact.

Makenna Jade is a trouble making attention seeker who pretends to be what she isn’t. I see her posts on my feed all the time and they are always trying to stir up trouble and attention for herself. She doesn’t care about anything but getting attention.

11:47 can you give real references to back this up or is it a fact just because you say so?

Yes, please supply facts. You obviously have never WATCHED or LISTENED to anything Charlie said

2:18pm there is a nearly overwhelming amount of data to provide empirical evidence that demonstrates right individuals participate in violence based upon political ideology more than left-wing. In the past 10 years, there has been 240 people killed or injured, directly attributable to right wing violence, compared to five people killed or injured due to left-wing violence. However, if you want a study, I would suggest you Google it or preferably look in Google scholar. I would say the Department of Justice website, but they took that report down the day of Kirk being murdered.

Dearest 250. For your enjoyment and intellectual enhancement, the enclosed link was published by one of your favorite conservative think tanks.

Dearest 218, enclosed you will see all the facts you need....but like most maga members, you'll rationalize it into your rightwing nut philosophy. Sadly, the study was done by a conservative organization. Read it and weep. https://www.cato.org/blog/politically-motivated-violence-rare-united-states

Mrs. Duke would be welcomed on the coasts or in Chicago. All those failing school districts would love such a "great teacher". Also, Ms. Pulsipher is the one who spreads slanderous disinformation about the immigrant who committed suicide on WC school property. She hopefully is on a unhinged leftist, watch list along with Mrs. Duke.

Show me the documented data you state.

She is correct. Turning Point USA CEO and co-founder Charlie Kirk said of gun deaths on April 5, 2023, "I think it's worth it. I think it's worth to have a cost of, unfortunately, some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the Second Amendment to protect our other God-given rights." Charlie Kirk TP Faith Event April 2023. This time it wasn’t children killed in the school shooting. It was Charlie Kirk. This is the first snd only school shooting GOP and MAGA have cared about.

So I read the report. That 11% attributed to the right wing is all from Timothy McVeigh in the Oklahoma City bombing. That isn’t a “right wing” attack. That statistic is BS. McVeigh’s motivation wasn’t based on race, religion, creed or nationality, he just hated the U.S. government because of what happened in Waco. If anything he’s an anarchist.

Again, that statistic is all from the OKC bombing. Definitely not a right wing attack. BS stat

7:07 is spot on correct. She was not “celebrating” his death either. Everyone needs to calm down. She should not lose her job.

Absolutely correct! These “teachers” have not one single right to indoctrinate our students to their way of believing/thinking. We have so many “teachers” doing that nowadays. That is not what they were hired to do, nor is it acceptable! They must teach exactly what they were hired to teach - and only that! Nothing more and nothing less!!!

No one needs or wants to hear their own personal opinions!

If they cannot or will not keep their personal opinions to themselves, they need to be in the unemployment line and to never again to be considered for ANY position in our schools, colleges or our universities. PERIOD!!!

Charlie Kirk was a fine young adult who was doing his absolute best to lead Americans down the right path, until this yo-yo of a deranged freak took his life. The hugest problem as i see it is; America has so many more freaks of nature, just like Robinson - the murderer!!!

3:59PM, Can you Woke, DEI, CRT, Pronoun Shamers, Leftist Liberals - STOP with the Nazi dialogue and comments - "HATE SPEECH". Should we say that the KKK was started by Southern Democrats and Funded by the Democratic Party - which is True and Thank Goodness there was a Republican in the Whitehouse or where would we be today - of course he was Assassinated Too -

This is a about a Man, Charlie Kirk, who was expressing his opinions, his beliefs, in a non-violent debate format - who was assassinated by a Trans Loving Leftist Liberal Man, Tyler Robinson, with a Manifesto, because he thought his Boyfriend feelings were being hurt. It was carried out in front of his Wife and 2-Children - Then Celebrated, Laughed at, and Cheered by you a bunch of Sick Leftist Liberals - Who are being brought to the forefront and are feeling what the majority of America has turned a blind eye and deaf ear to - but Not Any More!

Only in Webb City - Would Ashley Duke - Not have been Terminated by the School Board - - America is Speaking Out - and there is No Room for your Attitudes, Agendas, Intimidation Tactics, and Hate Speech. We will NO LONGER ACCEPT IT.

What group of people was burning the cities and looted them? Was it the right winger rescuing shoes and TV’s? I will patiently wait for your reply…

I just wonder how many people that have commented went to college and graduated/recived their degree and are working retail and owe thousands of dollars for a worthless piece of paper.

The vast majority of politically motivated homicidal crimes in human history has been perpetrated by leftists, fact. The right isn't even a close second.

3:59 The murderer of Lincoln would have been MAGA. The irony in you second paragraph shows how deranged with hate you've become. However, based on the MAGA (Nazi) posters argument, any post about Kirk getting whacked out, including those praising him, should result in termination, right? Otherwise, if they only fire dissenters against the formation of the American Nazi Party, AKA MAGA, it would further demonstrate the arguments others are making against a teacher being fired.

these left wing bots can't hide whats right in front of our faces. We can clearly see which side has all of the violence, hate and general thugery and degeneracy over the last couple of decades. It's not even close, one side murders in the most cowardly fashion, riots while destroying cities, and cheers for the death of one of the most moderate figures on the right side. While the other side hold vigils, and continues turning the other cheek after being struck.
Now the right is awakened and they're using the tactics of the left, so hold on to your butts NPCs this is going to be a bumpy ride from here on out. You made this bed and now you will lie in it.

Leave the teacher alone!! She has a right to speak her opinion!! If she gets fired that's BS!!

I’m sorry but what in the world do you think teachers are indoctrinating students about? About how to solve an equation? About how to write a correct grammatical sentence? Man that’s some awful stuff.
Please, save the drama when you haven’t set foot in a classroom and are not a teacher yourself. Teachers are teaching what they are supposed to teach and nothing else. They don’t have time or energy to try and “indoctrinate” their students. Also, teachers are professionals. Can we treat them like that?
And I’m almost positive that she posted that comment on her own personal social media… so how is that her indoctrinating her students? How does that have anything to do with her job? The consequences don’t match the “crime” here.

The Webb City R-7 and police response to the Ashley Duke protest raises important questions about free speech, student rights, and authority in public schools. How these moments are handled sets lasting precedents—dialogue, not suppression, should lead the way.
