A veteran Minnesota high school teacher bizarrely raged over the details surrounding anti-ICE protestor Renee Good’s death during a heated argument with a student – which ended when she insulted the boy’s intelligence, according to video of the disturbing scene.

Becker High School social studies teacher Dr. Heather Abrahamson grew increasingly agitated as she insists that ICE agent Jonathan Ross used unnecessary deadly force against Good, 37, according to Libs of TikTok, which posted the clip and identified Abrahamson in a Tuesday X post.

“His move should have been to go like this if he was really afraid. Your job as a police officer is to de-escalate,” the instructor can be heard saying while the camera is pointed at other students sitting at their desks in the Becker, MN classroom.

The video then pans to show Abrahamson, who is standing within inches of the unidentified student’s face, as she repeatedly interrupts his claim that Ross “had a split second” to decide whether to kill the mother of three.

“No, he had – no. I’m not going to argue with you,” she says and drops her hands, before the boy points out, “you’re arguing right now.”

“Because watch the video – he was not in danger,” an incensed Abrahamson cries loudly, while dramatically flailing her hands in the air between her and the student, who was also standing.

“Just because you’re yelling doesn’t mean you’re winning an argument,” the boy says as Abrahamson walks to the side of the room – before unleashing a twisted insult on her teenage student.

“Yeah, just because you’re alive doesn’t mean you’re intelligent,” she hisses.

Scene of Renee Nicole Good's alleged shooting by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis.
Veteran ICE agent Ross suffered internal bleeding to his torso after Good’s car allegedly clipped him during the violent Jan. 7 protest in Minneapolis, according to DHS.
The outburst sparks chatter among other students, one of whom can be heard asking the subject, “you just gonna take that, man? She just called you stupid,” before the clip ends.

Abrahamson has worked at Becker Schools for 32 years and earned her Ph.D. in social studies curriculum from the University of Minnesota, according to her LinkedIn profile.

Her argument with a student over Good’s death isn’t the first time the educator has publicly disagreed with the politics of others within her school community.

In 2022, the school board sent Abrahamson into a tizzy over a decision at one of its meetings where a state LGBT advocacy group, Outfront Minnesota, vocalized issues they wanted to see addressed at Becker schools.

The board reportedly decided it would only be fair to also hear from a group with opposing views – much to the chagrin of Abrahamson, according to a story by the St. Cloud Times.

“The response from the kids is they were glad to have [OutFront], but the response from the school board then was right away, they needed to hear the other side of this,” Abrahamson, who was the high school’s Gender and Sexuality Alliance club’s advisor at the time, told the outlet.

“I don’t understand how you could think there’s another side to human rights, but they claim that there is.”
