Yes. It’s remarkable that in my years of teaching, all 135 lbs of me was able to manage 6 over-filled classes in on the daily with no body slamming and no police. And I had kids in tracker bracelets for shooting each other.

We have been in couples therapy for a few months trying to deal with our issues but I really think that this kind of brought everything into focus. Over the past few months he’s become a conservative and I think it’s cute that as a white male he can play in the political spectrum. I am a Afro-Latina first generation…

I’m still wondering why the administrator felt the need to call in the SRO. My dean of students had no problems pulling up a chair and sitting next to a misbehaving student for a few minutes to get them on track. But this dude apparently tried for 2 minutes, then called in back up? What the hell?

Exactly. I took a stroll through one of the comment sections on a mainstream news site. Mistake! Just a bunch of really fucking scary adults screaming about how kids these days don’t know how to respect their elders. It was terrifying. I wouldn’t let these types of people near my children (if I had kids). Crazy,…

From what I read, she put the phone away but wouldn’t give it to the teacher, who had asked for it. I get that bratty teens are annoying but if she put it away, the teacher should have fucking dropped it and gone on with teaching. I think some people just really cannot fucking handle their authority not being %1000…

Dump him.

I know people don’t want to make this a race issue (fuck them, it is), but if a black male SRO had done that to a white female student, everyone from Fox News to the KKK would be screaming for blood.

I KNEW the victim-blaming would start! Who’s the principal there, Steven A. Smith? “The victim has to assume some responsibility to avoid her own assault.... we must make sure that we learn as much as we can about elements of provocation...”

Sheriff Lott is trying to slow the inevitable shit avalanched that is coming his way.

I had the same thought... “Would you do that to your 16-year-old daughter?” Sadly, yes, I think some people would.

I am so fucking glad she has attorney. Hopefully she’ll get a fat settlement out of the deal and can get a good financial start in her adult life thanks to it. God knows her adolescence has sucked balls.

This stuff is just madness. I went to school in Scotland and adults were NEVER allowed to lay a hand on us, not ever. I mean, they took that super seriously. Seeing it said that laying hands on a teenager for acting like a teenager is allowed (with ‘proper technique’) shocks me beyond belief. Adults in my school had…

Well that took two whole days longer than necessary.

At least a break your neck, throw you across a room, and humiliate you in front of your peers offense...

I come from a family of (corrupt, psychotic, racist, ridiculous) cops. And he will be welcomed in another department. Probably with a pay raise. When my uncle was sacked for this sort of thing, another office reached out to him and offered him more money because of his ‘outstanding’ record.

She’s guilty of First Degree Teenaged Brattiness. That’s a death penalty offense, right?

What happens when you viciously attack children:

Who wants to start the count down until he’s hired at another department?

Eh, until he’s arrested and charged with assault it doesn’t matter.

Ben Fields, the officer FINALLY caught on tape
