I called no one a monster. My problem was not disagreement but referring to a human being as a "little shit". Since she is a "little shit", don't ask questions, just assault. Don't try to find out the facts. A "little shit" gets flushed down the toilet.
The video is unclear; she may have swung her arm when assaulted - and I'd do the same - or it may have been a reflex.
Had a video surfaced of a parent throwing a child across the room the parent would be in jail. Had a teacher done it, he/she would be fired, tenured or not. But then, she's just a "little shit", so it's OK if a 250 lb cop throws her across a room.
There are reports that the student, oh, excuse me, the "little shit" was just bereaved, that she just lost her mother. But she's a "little shit", not a disturbed student. If no one in the school knows how to handle a disturbed student, the problem is them.
There have been increasing moves to criminalize misbehavior, even among very young children. The county sheriff talking on national TV about a teen's cell phone use? Generally when a county sheriff is on national TV, he/she is talking about rape, murder, armed robbery, kidnapping, child molestation, arson, terrorism. Not a girl using a cell phone! It is literally a crime in South Carolina for a student to be "obnoxious" in class, yes that word is used. I freely confess I was sometimes obnoxious when I was a teen. I'd bet 99% of you were too. As this law cannot possibly be universally applied, since there would be no one left in class, it's by its nature selective. Against "little shits", I mean black girls. Disturbed young people. Misfits.
People here talked about parental responsibility and why this student was not raised better. My question: what type of parents raise people who call another human being a "little shit"?
