‘I just don’t like the black kids’: Calif. school vice principal put on leave after video of hateful comment surfaces

A California middle school vice principal has been suspended and is under fire from the Fresno community after he was recorded on video telling his young charges, “I just don’t like the black kids.”

Veteran administrator Joe DiFilippo is on paid administrative leave from Scandinavian Middle School in Fresno after the 18-second clip, posted Friday to YouTube, came to light.

---------

The uproar stems from a clip, filmed outside the school’s cafeteria, on which a student can be heard saying, “Mr. DiFilippo, who at this school do you not like?” as the administrator leans against a support column next to another student.

“Me,” says one voice, while another says, “All of us.” That’s when DiFilippo says, “I just don’t like the black kids,” and someone off camera exclaims, “Awwwww!” before the video ends.

1. "Scandinavian Middle School"?

Well, that's just an odd name for a school to begin with.

2. Wow.

What is someone who doesn't love ALL kids doing in school administration.

Something tells me they probably don't like him either ...

3. All I can say to the Vice Principal of Scandinavian HS is "Haista napa!"

Let him wear that for a while.

In other words, "You're FIRED!"

My Finnish mother taught me that one. It is not kind. At least not in Suomilainen.
