[Dr. Sivana]

All part of the Hispanic culture.

Hispanics weren't doing that 50 years ago. And white kids weren't shooting up schools. Black kids weren't pulling weapons to settle scores.

Certainly not while Sr. Imelda ruled the room, and the parents backed her up! Even in the public schools, the schools taught mostly the right stuff, the teachers had authority, and the parents backed them up.

This breakdown is not limited to a race or an ethnicity. Plenty of whites and blacks from broken homes, etc. cause similar problems.

The father nowhere to be found of course.

Actually, he is prominent in the story. He is not being particularly responsible, but he is there. It doesn't say if he's married to the mother, but he is father to the three year old mentioned.

(From the story:) His father, Rolando Fuentes, told ABC affiliate station WPLG in Miami that it was difficult to watch the video.

Early training for his obvious future.

Someone needs to refer the dad to the Bible and the book of Proverbs where it says “spare the rod and spoil the child.” King Solemen wrote it more than 2000 years ago and it is still as valid now as it was then. This dad failed to gain control of his son before the child ever left the baby bed. The parents both need to read the book, Dare to Discipline.

He hit the teacher. The police did the right thing. The mother needs to be jailed too.

That kid has a dubious ancestry.

[Saltmeat]

If that is the 7-year old kid in the picture, then every college football and basketball coach in the country must be interested in him by now. If he is 7 he is going to be another Shac 0neal.

Obviously a Dreamer.

The future looks dim for this young punk.

Allegedly handcuffed.

Maybe he was trying to earn his first tattoo?

[Kid Shelleen]

When I was in elementary school (in the stone age) we had a gym teacher that was also the vice principle. He had a wood paddle and would have settled this matter in 5 minutes.

Mean little bastard. Look at that defiant face.

[MplsSteve]

“Mean little bastard. Look at that defiant face.”

My thoughts too.

[pabianice]

Now, now... we must respect his acting-out his justifiable rage at racist, oppressive, American society.

[bgill]

If they’re illegal, deport them.

[dfwgator]

Reminds me of the Richard Pryor routine...

Maybe he's serving "Triple Life", that means when he died and came back, he has to go back to penitentiary...."$#%$ kindergarten. Get your little ass back in the penitentiary. You know what you did last time you was here.”

Mercy Alvarez and her husband, Rolando Fuentes, met with lawyers
to discuss possible legal action against the Miami-Dade School District
and the police

[Georgia Girl 2]

Future gangbangers of America.

Why haven’t these parents taught their child how to behave? Maybe because our wack out village in really is anti social. You do what ever you want, multiculturalism, diversity etc. What happened to taking the best from all these cultures and making the great American stew. Now we throw the garbage of these cultures as well I to the pot and no sane person would consume it.
