Moment Texas middle school student hurls CHAIR at substitute teacher, 73, leaving blood pouring from man's face - with elderly victim then throwing TWO chairs back at unruly teenager

An elderly substitute teacher at a Texas middle school was left with a bloody face after a student threw a chair at him - and then retaliated by throwing two chairs back at the teenager.

A video circulating on social media from last week showed the fight in a classroom at DeSoto West Middle School, between the student and Larry Brumfield, 73, who was struck in the head, in front of a group of students. It is said to have erupted after the boy, who hasn't been named, refused to leave a classroom that he should not have been in.

'Damn!' one student yelled in shock after Brumfield felt the hit, the video shows.

The substitute teacher then could be seen lifting two chairs before hurling them back towards the student, who was not even enrolled in the class, as other students were stunned by what they were seeing.

Brumfield added that the fight broke out after the teen perpetrator refused to leave the classroom, KXAS reported, with the teacher and student then hurling foul-mouthed insults at one another.

'Fortunately I saw it out of my peripheral vision,' Brumfield said of the chair that struck him. 'It hit my leg. My leg and my head. It didn't hurt as much but I felt the blood on my face … I picked it up and threw it back at him.

Other students were shouting and standing on the substitute teacher's desk in the corner of the classroom while the fight broke out, the footage shows. Near the end of the video, some students can even be heard yelling 'Stop!' while Brumfield gets closer to them to get a better angle at throwing the chair at the student.

These aren’t children; they’re animals. They and their parents should be euthanized. At that age, there’s no hope for them, so no need for them to continue breathing air that decent people can use.

Did something similar as a sub back in the 70’s. A kid threw his chair up the aisle at me. I stepped aside, grab the desk and threw it back down the aisle at him. He jumped up on the heating unit to avoid being hit. I sent him to the office where he was promptly suspended. This happened first period, I had no discipline problems the rest of the day

If I heard you speak that sentence you just posted, I would assume you’re somehow mentally impaired. Hint: proofreading is good.

Close the schools, fire the teachers (union), sell the physical plants to the private sector, start over again as a private enterprise.

Well, the chairs do constitute a “shiny object”

Obviously we need them throw even MORE money at schools to solve this problem.
