Marykate Blankenburg allegedly wrote, "If my child cannot get to the Eagles game due to protesters, I will personally SHOOT every one of them. You've been warned idiots!!"

The post referenced the protesters who have disrupted traffic to Eagles games in response to the injustices in Ferguson, Mo., and New York City and to police brutality in general.

The school district has placed Blankenburg on paid leave.

"Responding with urgency and concern, we immediately began an investigation, including verification of the source of the post, and we will take appropriate action once we learn all of the facts," Central Bucks School District Superintendent David Weitzel said in a statement to NBC10.

Although the district attorney’s office is investigating the incident, Blankenburg has not been charged with any crime.
