This is Clinton High School assistant basketball coach Mike Garofoli:

Screen Shot 2017-04-12 at 3.27.32 PM

You might recognize him from the Internet. He usually appears on random people’s Facebook pages, starting fights about politics and saying insane things. For instance, we recently saw a left-leaning woman named Christine Peterson share her thoughts on the military budget:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.00.01 AM

Pretty standard opinion for your average liberal American. But we’re not here to agree or disagree with her. We’re here to talk about Coach Mike Garofoli’s reaction to it. First a veteran named Sean Antaya, who is friends with Ms. Peterson, offered an alternative right wing point of view:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.08.09 AM

Again, we’re not here to talk politics or agree or disagree with Sean here. He’s entitled to his opinion and she’s entitled to hers. But I think we can all agree that as a veteran Sean has at least earned our respect. Coach Garofoli disagrees:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.09.29 AM

Yea, because the American military has been at peace for 90 years straight. Gulf War? Korea? Vietnam? Iraq 2.0? Afghanistan? Those things never happened. Ever.

Sean disagreed with Coach:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.59.20 AM

A normal person would tread lightly after reading something like that. Pretty heavy stuff. Not Coach though. He decided that he’d call this veteran dumb for volunteering for an “illegal war,” because all Sean and people like him do is get paid to “play Army”:
Screen Shot 2017-04-12 at 3.34.37 PM

Yup, this guy is paid by the taxpayers of Clinton to guide young male children, many of whom will go on to serve their country. Nice.

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.59.46 AM

He was just getting warmed up though. Next he told the veteran that he “didn’t fight for me or your country”:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.57.59 AM

Because if the American military didn’t fight terrorism, they’d probably be nice to us I guess.

Next he decided he’d insinuate that Sean’s friends died because they were foolish enough to volunteer to serve, blame his friends who were killed in combat for creating ISIS, and then tell Sean he was dumb and foolish for serving his country:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.57.29 AM

Oh, and he has a link!! So you know he knows what he’s talking about.

Anyway, we searched Coach Garofoli some more on the Facebook machine and found out he’s been spewing crazy shit like this for a while. For instance, one of his big things is that Syrian people shouldn’t reproduce:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.00.31 AM

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.57.13 AM

Because it’s just that simple. Syrian people should be smart and just get out of Syria. Sure, they’re leaving their entire lives behind and becoming a refugee isn’t exactly a simple process. But this white guy from Clinton has it all figured out.

Oh, and stop reproducing too. Only people from wealthy, first world countries should be having babies. People living in poverty all around the world should just stop reproducing so their species dies out.

Never mind the fact that during World War 2 people in the United States didn’t stop popping out children. Never mind the fact that the only way to confront death is to create life. Never mind the fact that some people choose to be optimistic and want to work to make the world a better place for the next generation. Never mind the fact that rape is quite common in war torn countries, and rapists don’t generally wear rubbers. Never mind the fact that birth control isn’t exactly easily accessible in Syria, and if you get caught with it you get thrown off a building by fundamentalists for being a heretic.

Those things don’t matter, because only an idiot would reproduce if they lived in a country where the life expectancy is lower than it is in the United States.

Considering Mike Garofoli is left-leaning and runs in left-leaning circles, this didn’t go over too well with his friends on Facebook. Nevertheless he persisted

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.56.49 AM

And persisted

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.57.02 AMScreen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.01.10 AMScreen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.01.22 AM

Screen Shot 2017-04-12 at 3.23.15 PM

And persisted

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.01.00 AM

“If somebody can’t provide for an optimal life for a child they shouldn’t have them.”

Yup, that’s the kind of world I want to live in. A world where other people who aren’t Turtleboy get to decide whether or not my current socioeconomic condition is “optimal” enough so that I should be allowed to bear children.

One of the factors that inspires people to create babies in such a bleak environment is a faith in God. But Coach Garofoli also has strong opinions about religion, and if you’re a religious kid on the Clinton High School basketball team and you believe in God, your coach thinks you’re one of the two major problems our world has:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 9.56.31 AM

Oh, and if you went to a prayer vigil for someone who died, you’re an idiot:

Screen Shot 2017-04-14 at 10.00.41 AM

Stupid religious people!!!

Anyway, if this guy were some nobody on the Internet we wouldn’t mind shaming him. But the fact that he’s employed by the Clinton Public Schools and is in a position of influence around children is scary. Just sayin.

He is a VOLUNTEER only and NOT on our staff. I was informed of his stupid comments about 5 minutes ago and have forwarded them to the CHS admin and our co-ADs. I truly apologize for his ignorance!”

    How the fuck is this a news story? You heavily disagree with mans political and religious opinions, but so what? I disagree with most of the shit he was saying too, but that doesn’t make it a news story.

    He’s fully entitled to have those opinions and he shouldn’t be terminated for having them. His unpopular views on our military and reproduction in no way affect his ability to teach basketball.

    Come on Turtleboy, I thought you were better than this.

      I think turtle boy got a little too close to some real authority/repercussions with one of his stories and now he just patrols Facebook looking for frivolous drama that he can exploit. Turtle boy is the equivelant of a salted old person looking out their window tissking and self righteously judging everyone for living their own lives because he’s too afraid to.

      He has the right to write about whatever he wants so I guess we should let him stick to the issues he’s comfortable discussing; everyone else’s but his own, anonymously.

    This guy is a complete sh!t head and his comments are disgusting. With that being said, he is NOT a Clinton Public School employee NOR is he paid. He is…or was…a volunteer. Do you plan on retracting/correcting this misreporting?

    You two have one thing in common…you are both hacks who should not be allowed to post stuff on the internet.

    I’m not sticking up for the man in this article, his actions, nor any of the other subjects you’ve posted about, but if you won’t reveal your own identity then it’s straight up cowardice & hypocrisy for you to spend so much time creating witch-hunts over such petty issues.

    It was one thing when you would expose local corruption but now you’re just taking anonymous pot-shots at troubled and misguided people.

    You’ve become the same as the SJW’s who you hate so much for causing social strife in the name of ‘justice’ and without any real solution to offer. You wine about the winers and prop your opinion up by believing your actions are for the betterment of all (which is exactly what all feminists and SJW’s believe). But at least they spout their useless opinions using their own names and identity, you can’t say that.

    I just want you to realize that your actions today will be viewed as the substantial equivelant of the people you’re so obsessed with. Just another voice yelling about the other voices you can’t let go of.

    I respect that you put your opinion out there and that you try to be a voice of reason but lately you’ve just become another decibel in the fray. If you’re gonna publish the identities of people who you tear apart then at least publish your own. It’s not taking a stand if you’re not taking a risk and you haven’t taken a real risk in quite a while.

    Again, go on doing what you will, but know that you are no less a coward than the snowflakes who march in droves to make society bend to their personal views and comforts.

    Thank you

    We, as a town, are a toilet. But most of us only leave our little piece of hell to spend a couple hours in Worcester to remind ourselves that it could be worse. That being said, Garf was a bitch in the 80s, and he’s obviously a bitch still. Our flawed town would like to hereby apologize for Garf’s existence. Despite spending most of our youth drunk on the railroad tracks, he was never the victim of a tragic accident. That is our cross to bear alone, and we apologize to America, deeply and sincerely. Today, 13,000 alcoholics of all ages, say with one voice, “Garf, you’ve managed to accomplish the impossible. You’ve embarrassed Clinton. Shut up, bitch.”

    Sincerely,

    For the record I try to contribute to my community in various ways and have been volunteering as an unpaid assistant in the Clinton athletic department for the last seven years.

    I like many millions utilize the social media platform Facebook to share information and participate in discussions on topics I find relevant with those I am connected with. Some find my efforts useful and my commentary thought provoking.

    A few unconnected comments on those topics were recently taken out of the political context in which they were written and used here as a cheap stunt.

    My position on those topics is as follows:

    Our world is in turmoil and at constant war mostly because of religion. There are over 4,000 of them which means nobody has the magic answer to what I maintain will always be unknown. I defer to all religion as being fantasy.

    The US Military has not been involved in any legitimate combat operation in the pursuit defending our nation and protecting it’s citizens since WWII.

    Having children in an environment of chaos and destruction and conditions that are unlikely to result in their survival is unwise.

    You are welcome to dispute these points. My page is public.

      April 14, 2017 at 9:31 pm

      “unpaid assistant in the Clinton athletic department ” – If there are unpaid assistant anything, anywhere, in a MA public school, that school’s teachers’ union/association would be breaking out in hives.

      • You're a Hack
        April 15, 2017 at 6:33 pm

        You are clearly a moron. Go do some investigating and see how many paid staff members are on a coaching staff in high school sports. He is a volunteer, and he is not part of a teacher’s union because he is not a teacher. After you do your investigation, you should pick up a grammar book genius.

        • what?
          April 15, 2017 at 10:13 pm

          I never said he was a teacher. Also, I didn’t say he was in the union/association. Review the comment.

          Coaching positions ( assistant coaches or head coaches) are generally posted in any public school system (that I’ve ever seen). Usually, they are listed in the contract as stipend positions. That is pretty much the norm for any on-going position that involves regular student contact (one example would be club sponsors). Maybe Clinton is an exception. My point, that this is unusual, would still be valid.

          The point is, I can’t imagine most unions agreeing to allow a bunch of unpaid “volunteer assistant coaches,” because that would open the door for any number of “volunteer” “unpaid” positions. That is not a “dig” at unions, by the way.

          Also, here is an edited-for-your-benefit version of the offending error; “…unpaid “assistants,” anywhere in a MA public school…”

          Also, please let me know what a “grammar book genius” is. Oh wait, I think you meant “grammar book, genius.”

    I have personally gone round for round with this guy on facebook for hours and then it went to texting. In the end, trying to find a common ground with him, he refused to aceept one, sad. He seems to hate America, and facts and history don’t mean much to him. He thinks we created the terrorist situation, we just will make more by trying to defeat their twitsted, hafeful, ideology? Maybe Mikey needs a history lesson, they’ve been attacking us since President Jefferson was in office (1801-1809). He should look up Barabry Pirates, then read the line again, “…from the halls of montezuma to the shores of TRIPOLI” as in Lybia. History and facts don’t matter when you base all your decisions on a warped left wing ideology. Clinton should fire him, he shouldn’t be allowed around young people, they aren’t playing basketball to get indoctrinated into his far left wing politics or worse, to be demeaned by him for believing something different.

In fact, there are quite a few who are now (and I’m guessing for quite some time to come) giving him not nearly what he deserves for his tirades. Especially about our very honorable military men and women. Whom, unbeknownst to him apparently, keep ALL of us safe. At this particular moment, I’m ashamed to say I know him but puting our whole town in his class right now is sooo uncalled for.
