Lesson not learned as UFT again throws support behind Sharpton anti-cop rally

This teachers union never learns.

The UFT plans to send busloads of protesters to the Rev. Al Sharptons anti-cop rally in Washington, DC, this weekend despite the fury it sparked by co-sponsoring a similar march over the summer.

We cant stop them from supporting Al Sharpton and the anti-cop brigade. Its the Useless Federation of Teachers, one outraged teacher told The Post.

In August, scores of city teachers including many married to NYPD cops blasted the UFT on its own Facebook page for supporting a Sharpton-led demonstration on Staten Island.

In a rare labor rift, the head of the Patrolmens Benevolent Association also called UFT president Michael Mulgrew disgraceful and accused Mulgrew of trying to distract attention from his failed leadership.

How would he like it if police officers lined up with the activists who oppose his efforts to shield bad teachers and undermine effective charter schools? Lynch said.

In an Action Alert posted on its Web site, the UFT strongly urges its members to attend Sharptons Justice for All march on Saturday, offering free rides on charter buses leaving at 6 a.m.

But the union didnt do its homework, mistakenly saying it would march with our colleagues at the NAACP, which has no public affiliation with Sharptons protest.

In September, the UFT warned pro-cop teachers not to wear NYPD T-shirts on their first day of class and raised the specter of potential implications for their jobs.

But dozens of educators refused to be bullied, proudly posing in their shirts for photos that were posted on a Facebook page titled Thank you, NYPD.
