Florida county school board chair Sarah Rockwell apologized for Facebook comments celebrating legendary wrestler Hulk Hogan’s death on Thursday as "one less MAGA" in the world. "Oh did Hulk die? I didn’t even know. Good. One less MAGA in the world," Rockwell’s since-deleted comment read. In a follow-up comment, Rockwell added, "[H]e worked with the McMahons to union bust professional wrestling. [H]e’s never been a good guy. I feel absolutely nothing about his death." After her comments went viral on social media, Rockwell deleted and apologized for them on her official school board Facebook account. ''A few days ago, I

I bet there are families in her district that are MAGA. I'm sure they're thrilled to know the school board chair would be thrilled if they all dropped dead. Hard to have confidence in a leader that feel that way about you.

"Dr. Rockwell has two children with disabilities who attended Alachua County Public Schools prior to the pandemic, but are currently being homeschooled due to medical risk factors. She understands the hard choices that parents have had to make during the pandemic. Her son is 11 years old and a sixth grader. He loves computer programming, reading, and creating worlds and languages for his science fiction novels. Her daughter is 8 years old and in second grade. She loves dolls, legos, and arts and crafts."

Ms. Rockwell-
Regarding the link to a news item I saw:
https://www.foxnews.com/media/florida-county-school-board-chair-deletes-comments-celebrating-hulk-hogans-death-one-less-maga
Your comments regarding the sudden passing of Terry Bollea (Hulk Hogan) are a disgrace. While I appreciate your apology, your underlying thought process is a disgrace. I don't believe you have the right to continue serving on the Alachua school board. It is clear that your likely don't have the proper family values required for this position. Further, the children you serve have now learned a new example (as if we needed another) of hate towards those with whom you disagree. In this case, it is politics but now we wonder what else drives your animus against others.
The website of the Alachua County School board states the following:
"The Alachua County Public Schools District does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, age, disability (Section 504/ADA) sexual orientation, gender identity or marital status genetics or legally-protected characteristics in its educational programs, services or activities, or in its hiring or employment practices."
Apparently, the term "political ideology" needs to be added to this list.
I believe you should resign your position immediately for the good of your community and the children in your district.

Like Jennifer Aniston said about Brad Pitt, after their divorce, this woman is missing a sensitivity chip. To even think that way is sick. To actually say it out loud, in front of people, is even sicker. Someone tell her about karma.

It is one thing to be a hateful leftist. It is quite another to be so STUPID as to post your unhinged vitreol on social media. Clearly she is not fit for any job in the educational world.

Alachua County is one of the only six counties in FL who voted majority Harris for President. Suck it up, loser. Meanwhile, I heartily concur with #5. You can bet she's making out like a bandit with special services for her kids. DOGE?

Democrats seem to be so soulless, from local to national politicians.
Family tradition, a misplaced belief in the rectitude of Democrats of the past (Truman, Humphrey, JFK and Bobby come to mind), and an exaggerated foundational belief they are the “smart,” party seem to drive most of their rank and file members.
It’s certainly not the kind of raw intelligence, critical thinking and skepticism that have traditionally described Americans.
Certainly the revelations about President Obama cannot be dismissed; even as he is protected every shell falling within his few meters of ground will eventually disabuse even the most credulous of the caliber of men and women Democrats choose to lead them.

FTA: “I feel absolutely nothing about his death.” That is obviously not true or you wouldn’t have posted anything.

This is one reason that modern students receive such a poor education in most schools. When the rot begins at the head of the school board, it permeates down through the teaching staff and into the classroom. Hate and leftist politics win out over education. Why are school boards so overloaded with leftists? I once attempted to become a school board member and soon found that it's a viciously closed system, even in small towns.

Her apology does not change her views and opinions. She’s still the same hateful TDS patient. No known cure. Get rid of her. She shouldn’t be within a mile of our children.

" I want to assure all of you that the best interests of our children and our public schools are at the center of everything I do as a board member." Her comment on Hulk Hogan pretty much defined her position on her "interests of our children".

It seems that people come in two varieties: those with empathy (essentially, love for others), and those whose hearts are cold. Rockwell, the Alachua County school board chair, is in the latter category, and should have damaged her career beyond repair. We'll see what happens to her now. Trump supporters in Gainesville will know she has little regard for them. She should find another line of work.
Terry Bollea (Hulk Hogan), who lived near here, definitely liked people, and always had time for his fans. Over the last forty years I've seen him driving the opposite direction a few times, the most unmistakable looking individual I ever saw. The one time I met him, in 2007 at a Benihana's in Key West near the airport, he posed for a picture with my best friend's sister, and small talked with us. I think it was important for him to show his appreciation of his fans. Similarly to Arnold Palmer, who also loved people, he never let them down.
Over the weekend, I saw a film of Hulk's baptism by immersion from two years ago. For him, baptism and declaration of faith was in the natural progression of his life. He was dressed in the same type of white smock I wore when my pastor, also in a white smock, dunked me beneath the (warm) water in late 1995. Hulk Hogan is my brother in Christ! He left us too soon, but we're glad to have had him around as long as we did. We'll see him again in the next life.

Her apology is not good enough. She needs to issue an apology at the next school board meeting. That also won’t be good enough.

I don’t understand why these “dims” continue to do these kinds of things. Maybe because they always get away with it. They are like an overindulged toddler with no consequences.

The only proper apology would be her resignation. Anyone celebrating the death of another simply because they disagree with their politics is not fit for any responsible employment. It's almost always the left that embraces this disgusting hatred. I remember the glee from the oh-so-tolerant left when Rush died.

Glad she revealed her TRUE mindset for all the world to see.
She better hope someone's compassionate enough to think of or say something nice about her when it's HER time to meet her Creator

Is there some sort of genetic link between being a gross obese white woman and being a rage filled America hating communist death democrat? Inquiring minds would like to know if there is any scientific data to back up this theory.

OP has it right.
And I'm sure the comments on left wing sites were not very kind or compassionate.

She can take her manufactured, thoughtfully written apology and stick it where the sun don't shine. We are on to her. Her original post, when she thought no one was really paying attention is what she really feels, thinks and believes. That post is who she is. And if the school board was smart they would fire her today. If she was a republican and said the same thing about some left wing democrat she'd be gone. Dump her, now.

It's funny how Dems never get caught saying something kind, compassionate, or thoughtful. Ugly thoughts celebrating death always seems to be on the tip of their tongues.
