A teacher is under fire after a video surfaces on social media of him involved in a fight with a student. And he has his mask on.

Students describe him getting angry, kicking a trash can, and telling them they were acting like “a bunch of monkeys.”

Twenty years later, students are marching outside of Moore High School, protesting that Bennett was not immediately fired.

20 YEARS, “The wheels of justice turn slowly but grind fine.”

A nice handful of hair!

Long ago in Chicago, if looking for a fight, remove your shirt and only wear a "wife-beater" tee shirt. So as not to present any easy grab handles.

Today, the only need is to pull out your gun.

Terrible journalism.

This is written like the incident was last week. Then they throw in the casual little, “Twenty years later ...”

If you are teaching at an inner-city high school, all you can do is submit to abuse, and call the school “resource officer.”

It was a recent incident. The claims are that the teacher was aggressive like that over a period of twenty years.

If you are teaching at an inner-city high school, rethink your career choices.

I think the video is new, and the urinalists raked up some 20 year old muck, on top of it. Dude’s being cancelled.

You have to admit Johnson’s War on Poverty has been a total success.

Pew pew pew. Pew pew. Drive by media. Pew pew. (Sounds of tires squealing and a car speeding away).

There is more to this story. If the teacher was so terrible and wrong, why wasn’t he arrested for battery, or battery on a minor (carries a higher penalty). Why hasn’t the family filed suit for a civil rights violation? Why is there no mention of WHY the teacher had the student on the ground in the first place, or why he made the “racial” (wink wink) comment?

Piss-poor excerpting didn’t help the coherency here! You really need to go to the article itself.

Yep, good take. I like your use of "urinalists", good stuff!

Well, maybe he can retire and do something else. Or, go somewhere that an educator might be appreciated.

The timeline of this story is a big vague.

I like your use of "urinalists”

Hat-tip to Rush. It’s been an unbelievable sh*t-show since his passing.

—”Drive by media. Pew pew. (Sounds of tires squealing and a car speeding away).”

IMO the majority of “reporters” never visit a crime scene, just sit and read Twitter for possible events to rewrite.

And add a headline with wiggle words; could, possible,might...is this...

...urinalists...

Very good! It sounds to me like a term Rush would use.

See my #12. Always got a laugh out of Rush referring to the Atlanta Urinal and Constipation.

Ah Ha! I hadn’t seen #12. I still miss him dearly, very dearly.
