Florida Teacher Placed On Leave After Racist Rant Aimed At Kids For Using Walking Path Caught On Video

Florida Teacher Placed On Leave After Racist Rant Aimed At Kids For Using Walking Path Caught On Video

Patricia Schmidt, a special education teacher based in Naples, Florida was placed on leave after a video of her terrorizing children using a walking path near her home went viral.

Schmidt has apparently been doing this consistently—terrorizing folks using the walking path near her home, specifically children, while also working as an Experimental Education Specialist, who helps identifies the needs of special needs students and provides experimental working environments for them.

The woman who recorded the rant and her children received several choice words from Schmidt, including the woman being called "White trash" and her children being called "half-breeds."

The expletive laiden beginning of the rant is difficult to decipher because of the amount of bleeping out done.





Neighbors say Schmidt has been doing this for years—acting as the de facto and extremely hostile guardian of the walking path in their neighborhood.

If unfamiliar faces cross the path, Schmidt takes a similar approach to talking to them as she did on this video, earning her the nickname "King's Lake Karen," after the neighborhood's name (King's Lake).





The Collier County School District, who employs Schmidt, placed her on temporary leave while they make a decision but have not yet commented on the situation.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
