GARY, Ind. -- Authorities said an angry parent attacked a fourth-grade teacher with a stapler at a Gary school while students watched.
Police arrested the woman shortly after the attack Thursday afternoon at Beveridge Elementary School.
Gary Community School Corp. spokeswoman Sarita Stevens said the woman entered the school from an unlocked door.
Stevens said the woman, who is expected to face assault charges, was upset over the teacher's disciplinary tactics with her child.
Stevens said the teacher was treated for head wounds at a local hospital.
A message requesting more information on the charges filed was left Saturday with police.
The woman had canceled an earlier meeting with the school's principal and director of elementary education.

Nice parenting, huh? Don't try to make my kid behave or I'll beat the crud out of you!
Btw, for those that aren't familiar with Gary, think Indiana's equivalent of East St. Louis or Detroit - a rust belt industrial town saddled with rampant crime, high unemployment, endemic corruption, and staunchly liberal politics (more liberal than Berkley, according to this study.)

You beat me to it; I was going to ask if the assault weapon was a red swingline stapler. Ha!

Is this the wonderful “socialization” that homeschoolers are missing? ( Just wondering.)
Also....Please remember, that the government **will** force someone’s child to be in the company of the attacker's child. Just another way that government ( every indoctrination day) shreds the parent's First Amendment Right to free assembly.

“My English teacher wanted to flunk me in junior high, thanks a lot, next semester, I’ll be 35. I chased him around with a stapler, stapled his tie to the table, and I told him to change the grade on the paper!”
I’m sorry, but this so reminded me of that old Eminem song.

Egads, Miss Staplegun 1993.
She didn’t staple herself first though.
She might be improving mentally.
