Administrators Caught In Lesbian Affair Face Termination

Crystal Simmons

The DOE have announced that they are planning on firing the Principal and Assistant Principal who were embroiled in a two-year long affair which came to an end in a hail of firing requests and death threats. "We are currently seeking to terminate both Principal Simmons and Assistant Principal Jones," for conduct believed to include sex during school hours, said DOE spokeswoman Barbara Morgan. But what do Principal Crystal Simmons' current and former husbands think?

According to the Post, Principal Simmons is married, and a man identifying himself as her husband said he found the situation "disturbing." Her ex-husband Derrick Lilly talked to the Daily News, and defended her: "They were on school property when they were doing whatever but I don't want anybody to lose their job. The economy's terrible right now...She's a successful black woman. I'm proud of everything she accomplished."

Speaking of Oprah - she'll probably have them on her show, and then the three of them can group-lezzie it out backstage. Y'all know that Oprah's marriage is a beard, so to speak, right?

Wow! It's yet another historic 'first' for African-Americans (formerly known as 'People of Color'. . . and prior to that, as: Black's. . . Colored People. . . Darkies. . .and Negroes! )

They are THE FIRST lesbo gals actually fired for having actual lesbian sex on actual BOE School property!

Wow Again- we sure be livin' in the era of 'historic firsts' for Black Americans!

(It's an excitin' time here in America!)

"She's a successful black woman"

I always thought it was "the white media" perpetuating these bullshit phrases but apparently not.

Coming up next: both sue the DOE for wrongful termination, after a long and drawn-out termination procedure costing hundreds of thousands. City settles with both, in at least the high 6s. They keep their pensions and bennies, get back together, adopt a chinese baby, then one kills the other and sues for survivors benefits. What, ya didn't see it coming?
