At least dozens of people across America, probably hundreds by now, have been fired by their employers for advocating violence against conservatives and Christians in the aftermath of the assassination last week of Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk.

Employers have been advised not to keep workers who push well beyond free speech and into incitement.

Now Texas officials say they are investigating almost 200 teachers who have been reported for such offenses.

Gov. Greg Abbott said the Texas Education Agency is working to review those statements of violence, including those teachers who "cheered" the murder.

Abbott said those found to have gone into the speech that promotes hate and violence will have their teaching certificates suspended and will be barred from working in Texas schools.

TEA Commissioner Mike Morath noted the behavior may be in violation of the Educators' Code of Ethics, explaining that while all educators are held to a high standard of professionalism, there is a difference between comments made in poor taste and those that call for and incite further violence.

The Gateway Pundit reported Morath currently is referring all reports of such comments to the state agency's investigations division.

"According to Texan News, the TEA has reportedly received roughly 180 complaints in response to the letter it circulated last week requesting reports of 'reprehensible' content or social media posts shared by educators following the assassination of Charlie Kirk," the report said.
