Teachers know best. That's what they keep telling us.

Major ouch! ---
BTW, 20+ years ago, when the first IP's first came out, they were the size of a Cracker Jacks box and covered with lights.
The first guy to wear one was eating lunch in a restuarant and looked up to see he was surrounded by a SWAT team.
Seemed someone saw it and thought it was a bomb.

A normal teacher would say: "Put that phone on the desk right now."
Snatching nonweapons out of kids' hands is not SOP.

OMG!!!
As a diabetic myself, I can't imagine anything so horrible and personally invasive.
The Am Diabetes Assn needs to do some outreach to idiot teachers if they can't tell a pump from a phone. Although, considering so few phones are attached to people's bodies w/a freakin' cannula, you'd think it wouldn't be an issue.

No doubt this event will cause the teachers union to call for an immediate rasie in pay and reduction in class size so these kind of things don't happen
To: linkinpunk
There have been three diabetics that were arrested by the police here in the last 15 years and died in jail. In each case, the IDIOTS in charge thought the person was faking and/or drunk. There has been NO punishment for these cases.
The teacher should be charged with assault.

OOOOOOPS!!!!! Better get out the checkbook.

Hmm another public school teacher with temper issues
forgot to take her plethora of psych meds again?

As a thought,
it would be really easy to do a blood glucose test at the time you're doing the blood alcohol.
It's sad, because drunk and out of control blood sugars can look alike.
