BROWNSVILLE, Tenn. — The Tennessee high school principal who reportedly told students during an assembly that gay students were going to hell, has resigned.
Dorothy Bond
Haywood County High School Principal Dorothy Bond has resigned, according to the school system’s law firm, reported the Jackson Sun.
In a statement released through Purcell, Sellers & Craig, Inc., the school system said:
“The Haywood County Board of Education acknowledges its student body’s right to free speech. Further, the Haywood County Board of Education strives to provide an atmosphere of tolerance and diversity while maintaining high academic standards.”
Bond allegedly singled out LGBT and pregnant students during a meeting with students, and said, “If you’re gay you’re going to hell and if you’re pregnant, your life is over,” reported WPTY-TV in Memphis.
Since the story broke earlier today, more than 5,000 people signed an HRC petition calling on the Haywood County School District to investigate the allegations.

There is no such place as hell.
Yay! Not that I want people to lose their jobs, but if you are in a position of responsibility, shouldn’t you be responsible? Yay!
Damn! I was told that hundreds of times as a kid in catechism. Look how I turned out
There was an article on the Huffington Post, I heard!
i wonder if shes going for judgeing
It’s funny that she should say that, because I tend to think the people going to the imaginary place called “Hell” are the ones doing the hating, not the victims doing the loving.
What irony. An insult about a place that doesn’t even exist results in a resignation. Truth is much more bizarre than fiction.
As it should be……. there is no room for intolerance in this country!
oh yes there is a hell, anywhere gay people have to be abused by christian fundamentalists or catholic priests, without any recourse or protection.
someone should tell her that its a sin to judge so if I’m going she’s coming down with me and may even get thier first with such a close mind as that!
Hum, not all straight people will make it into heaven. Guess that isn’t the real requirement.
BLESS HER HEART ..
SHE’S OLE SCHOOL ..
LMAO ..
great and she should also be stripped of her benefits which by the way gay people help pay her salary.
everytime you see a rainbow just thank god thats he/she is GAY
This is right by me… Some people are just so… Ugh! I feel like its hard for me being open about being gay because of the community I live in. Such backwoods thinking!
Good riddance to bad rubbish.
She should not be allowed to work around children of ANY age again!
Even less room for archaic superstition.
Now that’s good news! :)
and at the same time, how can gays support christianity when they know theyre the ones that hate us most. pagan pride
If we all do go to hell it won’t be hell anymore.. It’ll be the biggest party EVER!!!!!!
the only people going to heaven are grandparents, how much fun could that possibly be anyway? ;)
her resigning doesnt take away the hurt she has already caused. I hope they bring in people to talk with all the kids some sort of therapists or something.
actually, if there is a hell, the ones going there are the ones who are unloving.
like i said before, it’s HER hell SHE can burn in it.
She’s ignorant.
Surprised it came from someone who should VERY well know what it’s like to feel adversity especially in the South!, I mean come on, use your freakin head.
My heart goes out to any students that are gay that heard this. I pray they will not be discouraged or disparaged from hearing this ranter. It Does Get Better, especially with this principal resigning.As taught in school, remembering in spelling the word “principal” was to remember that the school leader with “pal”.She is NO pal to any student.Good riddance.
Yeah!
Haha she can’t cope with THE GAYS in her school
man fuck tennessee
yeah, good riddance,.. its a good start,.. we need to clean out all the fundies from teaching.
glad she works with children…not
Her words still hurt.. Ya so what she resigns.. The hate of her words will still linger around “the gay kids” its completely unfair.. Shame on her..
Ha. Sucks to be that bitch.
Cassy Lee just made my day!!!
Good. Close-minded people like her have no business teaching children. And seeing not only her gender, but her race, what could she possibly be thinking.
Good, she should not be in a school.
She doesn’t deserve to be in that position. I’m glad she resigned…
BUT then again, she’s probably baptist. O.O
GOOD get her outta there…or anywhere for that matter
what a cunt…and if all gay people go to hell, how are the angels going to get the hair styled?
Now that she’s gone from the school, HRC should start a petition to make sure she never gets the opportunity to pull that stunt again – petition the TN DOE to pull her administrator’s license.
Ding dong the witch has resigned!
lmao, good i hope the bitch gets in a car accident
Awww yeah.
Good riddance and have a happy life!!! :-{P}
Really? Serious?….No wonder God keeps His eye on these people so much closer. A total of 362 Heterosexuals Admonishments. And only 6 Homosexual Admonishments! Right from the Bible…
My grandma is a Jew and was raised in the US diring the time of the Holicost. To this day she belives fevintly that this is hell. I’m not Jewish or christian, but I think if there is a true hell, it would be in the disgarding of other people’s huminty. The one consept I’ll never understand in Christeanity is the notion that one person has the right to determan the value of another
Thank goodness, she shouldn’t be teaching negativity only positive thoughts. She is a an educator and a principal, who is she to tell anyone they are going to go to hell? Education is about helping self-esteem, not trashing it.
Who is she to say gays are going to hell? Wow lady, ur a total trashbag……the really cheap kind.
Another hate person resigns bye
If I owned her, I wouldn’t let her in my house
Who put HER in charge of deciding who goes to hell & who goes to heaven?! BUH BYE & GOOD RIDDANCE!
Good riddance to her.
Good for that person. Shame on you!
oh yea theres a hell didnt ya hear its where all the bigots hang out -_-
bye bye make sure the door hits your ass on the way out.
See it is people like her in our school systems that make it hard for gay teens who are being bullied to ask for help….. I am glad she resigned, I hope she is unable to find another job working with children!!!!!
HAHA hope she eats shit in hell.
good
I am all for u gays but hey, what about free speech, there is a thing out there, um, kinda a big thing, called the BIBLE, that says specifically that homo is abominable/sin/etc and teaches all these people spouting its TRUE WORD (to them) that what u r doing is wrong so now i think u should get rid of the BIBLE/churches of all kinds that teach this/ee n that principal was a black lady oh shit id be scared if i were u that NAACP doesnt come down on ur ass u got balls dude :)
Is she selling indulgences. Will people go to heaven because of her and then she’ll go to an even holier heaven? Breeders can’t help it though. They have lost their will and then upset that we have also but in a different way — and not tied down to breeding for the rest of their sorrowful lives!!
I am trying not to hate the poor woman.Just her ignorance.I say pray for her.
what i like to say is bye Beebe I fully support all LGBTQ am Pansexual but I hope she rots in hell herself!
She sould have been fired!!!
ugh
dumb bitch should go the fuck away
Bye, Bye Now
Shame on her.
Too bad hell doesn’t exist, because her ugly ass would be sitting right along with them.
Great! Will she be surrendering her teaching license as well? Nobody wants someone this evil and bigoted teaching kids anything.
Good glad she exposed herself as she need not be in the school to begin with.
GOOD! BYE BYE, BITCH!!!!!
God is love so why would God put us on earth if we were going to fail in this realm you really should read some of James Van Praaph books it well tell you were your going with your closed mindedness
THAT’S RICH! And don’t let the gay door hit your big ass on the way out! Way to go, teach!
GOOD PEACE OUT
So glad this principal resigned. What a narrow minded bigot HATER!
Good…she shouldn’t be around kids anyway
Good bye bigot… crawl in the dirt…
You know what? I am sick and tired of all this discrimination over LGBTQ people. Do we complain about all the straight people or the straight pregnant women strutting around that they have straight sex? No. I just wish they would get the hell over it already. Times are changing, and there isn’t a damn thing anyone can do about it. And honestly if you really think about it, of how evolution changes, there will be something wrong with you if you aren’t into the same sex. Just suck it up, and half of them are in the damn closet, but the so called “religion” keeps them from coming out. I just wish they would grow up already, cause there is more to life than worrying about who is doing who, or who is marrying who! Wake up Politicians, School Principals, it’s the 21st century! TIMES ARE CHANGING! Suck it up, or keep your damn OPINIONS to yourself, cause to be honest your “BELIEFS/OPINIONS” don’t matter.
Don’t let the door it you ……
If that’s ture see you in hell asshat ;)
Whoo- Hooo!!!!
