It’s a good thing the teacher was black. Had he been white, Je$$e and Al would be there in front of the cameras by morning claiming it was a hate crime and the teacher is a racist.

And THIS is a prime example of why public schools get a bad rap. Unlike private schools, public schools have no choice but to accept this type of trash - our laws force schools to educate him until he reaches an “age” where the government decides it is now “acceptable” to boot him out. One student like this can and does cost teachers their jobs and they can and do make learning in the classroom a challenge for the teachers. Many of the problems associated with the schools are, instead, problems such as this thug who are created by government policies and then the schools and classmates are stuck with him. If Obama is worried about “bullying” then he should support policies that punish this type of thug instead of enabling him.

"An alleged fight between...The alleged student is then shown shoving the alleged substitute teacher..."

WTH?

Impeach the kenyan or secession.

Times have changed, nobody in my day would have even talked back to any of our teachers......Unfortunately this teacher is going to be disciplined and the kid will likely only get a suspension...(since he probably doesn’t want to be in school anyway, it’s actually a reward)

"A teacher should, you know, stand up for himself, but not to go on ahead and you know. I'm speechless right now," said Darrel Phillips, a Palm Beach Lakes High senior.

I could post an intelligent comment about Darrel Phillips' job prospects following his upcoming graduation, but instead, I'll just go on ahead and you know.

The student pushed and swung at the much larger teacher. IMHO, the teacher had every right to swing/hit back. Think of it as a learning moment: the student needs to understand that his puny little self will get the snot knocked out of him because of his attitude, disrespect, and lack of human decorum. Swing at a much larger person and uh...you will get hurt.

I ‘volunteered’ to assist in Remedial English for Inner City Seniors (HS) and when being interviewed everything went fine till it came to the dress code and I said I always wore a jacket.
When told there was no need to be so formal, they preferred a more casual approach - to relax the children - and I said that all my good holsters were shoulder type and I knew they wouldn’t want me carrying on my hip.

They never did call back.....

Like hockey, teachers should have their own enforcers. Maybe the wrestling coach, football coach or school disciplinarian (if they even have one).

Touch a teacher? Get your ass kicked.

Gotta NetFlix “The Substitute” and its sequels tonight.

An alleged fight between a student and a substitute teacher...

Alleged?

If an airplane crashed and they got it on film, would it be an "alleged plane crash"?

Does the current style book mandate that the word "alleged" must be used in every article?

Lesson to adults in similar situations:

Stand your ground and do not charge!

First, because you must be seen as defending, not escalating.
Second, because you’re not going catch or out maneuver the kid, while you’re advancing.

Best is to stand, deflect, redirect, and wait for the opening.

There are always certain students in a class that believe their only purpose in life is to see how far they can hassle a teacher till they push them over the edge.

Then they blame it all on the teacher!
