High school teacher in trouble after tweeting topless photos to Diplo

A 23-year-old high school math teacher in Aurora, Colorado has made her administrators none to happy after she tweeted a topless photo of herself to popular DJ, Diplo (Philly, shoutout). The photo shows Carly McKinney—known from here on out as "CrunkBear"—upside down with her feet against a wall wearing nothing but panties. If you're old, it may be helpful to know that this is called "twerking." Don't ask. Well, okay, if you must:


Anyway, Diplo retweeted the photo, which alerted CrunkBear's students because zOMG THEIR TEACHER LISTENS TO DIPLO AND TWEETED TOPLESS PHOTOS. Overland High School's administrators caught wind of the fiasco and suspended CrunkBear.

Oh, I totally forgot to mention that, upon further examination, CrunkBear's Twitter account—@Crunk_Bear (get it now?)—included a tweet calling one student "jailbait" and a tweet indicating that she had marijuana in her car on school grounds. Whoops.

Diplo and others have been showing their support for CrunkBear on Twitter by using #FreeCrunkBear. Isn't the future awesome, you guys? [Spinner]

    Society needs to learn a lot about itself. I do not agree or disagree with her choices but in this country she is entitled to them. She will not be the first or the last teacher or professional to do this. These are the Liberties that people are fighting for and swarming to our shores to have. You truly do not believe that this would be acceptable in the Middle East? I think that the true issue here is that she is an Authority figure and she is not behaving according to that protocol. You know the one that was dictated to us. She is not the only rebel in the world. Give her time and maybe she will have something constructive to impart on her students.

    It is about time people stopped thinking that cute white girls can do anything they want as teachers in our schools. They need to be punished as severely as males when they act inappropriately.

    if she wasn't hot, she certainly wouldn't be prominently featured on philly.com. so it isn't news, so what? she's hot.

    I enjoyed reading some of the nonserious responses as most were actually pretty witty. However, the message by Martinez showed a lack of understanding of the freedom concept. People have freedom of speech but they can't write unflattering things about their boss because they will be fired. Likewise, a doctor cannot display pictures f his clients unless he/she has given permission. This young woman has the emotional intelligence of a moose in heat. Taking the jobof a teacher doesn't give a person the right to do or say anything and she showed by her lack of judgement that pole dancing is what she should pursue.

    Immature Twit(ter). Now going to pay the price. Bragging she had pot in her car on school grounds? What is there to say about such stupidity?

    The comments to this story are disgusting, and just show where we are as a society, and that is in the toilet. This "woman" should never, ever teach again.
