Orthodox Jewish Teacher Scared for Life after Receiving Threats


hate crime1.jpgGeoff Kingburg doesn’t know if he can return to his job substitute teaching after what’s happened. Kingburg says he’s been the target of anti-Semitic remarks twice from students at Boca Ciega High School.

Kingburg, an Orthodox Jew who wears a yarmulke every day, says students have made hateful remarks to him in passing before. But things escalated Wednesday afternoon when a paper showed up in his classroom. The paper contained swastikas and the words ‘Jews will die’ followed by today’s date.

Kingburg and his wife Tina are now scared for their lives. “We don’t know what this was,” Tina Kingburg said.  “Was it targeted at him?  Is it targeted at as many Jews as they can find at that school?  Or is it bigger?”

Kingburg reported both incidents to the principal at Boca Ciega.  School district officials say they are investigating the situation and taking this very seriously.

    The tzibur is too busy denouncing the importance of the State of Israel as a vital symbol of the strength the Jewish people. The only strength that is respected by the very lowlife Jew haters like in the story.
