A school board member in Ohio did the Nazi salute to the board’s president, who later resigned, during a contentious Tuesday meeting.

Tipp City Schools board member Anne Zakkour said, “Oh … Sieg Heil,” before doing the Nazi salute to the group’s head, Simon Patry, during a meeting about transparency in school projects.

Zakkour had tried interrupting Patry during his remarks before Patry told her she was not allowed to speak, leading to her using the Nazi salute.

The incident is the latest example of how controversial school board meetings have gotten since the pandemic as issues of transparency and curriculum have caused many meetings around the country to bubble over in fury.

      From the synopsis given in this post, it would seem to me that her salute was in jest. Basically calling the president Hitler?

      Did you even read the post description, let alone the article? It was a jab at the president’s behavior for being a “dictator”.

      “Nazi loving”… smh

        That’s like me saying the nword because the president was black.

        It’s extremely poor taste
