Having zero respect for authority is a threat. She would not listen to the teacher, the administrator or the officer.

What does this teach other students?

All this will do is increase disrespect against teachers and violence in the schools, while reluctant police officers will decline to jump in.

Wrongful firing! He needs to sue the heck out of the sheriffs dept and school district!

South Carolina is a employment at will state. An employee can be terminated for virtually any reason, or no reason at all, so long as it doesn't violate discrimination laws.

CORRECT. There is no social contract between parents and school authorities, and law enforcement. You cannot have community under those conditions.

I want to know more facts. I also want to know exactly what school officials are supposed to do with an insolent student who refuses to comply with orders.

Nowadays these kids know that nobody can touch them. This incident proves it as we see the cop is the one being disciplined.

“Seems to me the teacher and principal should have handled it.”

How? Nobody is addressing what should have been done. She knew that a passive-aggressive act could not be stopped because school personnel were forbidden from putting hands on her - so, disruption continued as she simply refused to comply. Staff likely felt they had to call in the cop because he was the only one “authorized” to manhandle a disruptive individual - and now he’s fired for doing so (overdoing, yes, but YOU try getting an non-compliant disruptive individual out of something as awkward as a school desk _without_ rough handling).

Absolutely NOT! The Sheriff should be terminated immediately if he does that. That school will completely break down, if it hasn't already. Someone stop these idiots from making bad decisions.

He handled the entire incident quite badly. There were more effective ways he could have used.

The easiest by far would have been to ask the other students to exit the classroom with their work and leave her in a room with no audience to off for, then just wait her out. Eventually she WILL get out of that chair and then arrest her or whatever is needed.

But to drag a minor out like that? poor life choice.

If the officer is fired, that school will have just lost its authority to conduct school. The teachers will no longer be able to enforce any discipline.

No if, ands or buts, the above statement is EXACTLY what will happen.

I had a girlfriend who taught in an majority black school. She quit after a year. She was threaten with a knife, hit, kicked,spit at and threatened with death. None of the kids were removed from the school. If you can’t remove with or without force then chaos will reign and little learning will get done.

Apparently the girl committed no actual crime other than being a brat. Seems to me the teacher and principal should have handled it.

Okay...how?

Nearly every one of these cases involve a black youth that cannot deal with ANY authority. . .not just police authority. . ANY authority. . and ladies and gentlemen. . .THAT is the real problem. . and it is one that no one wants to talk about. . oh and, btw, you think it’s bad now. . .wait untill their feral hordes of babies they make come of age. . .by then. . there will be no one crazy enough to want be a law-enforcement officer AT ANY PRICE.

My advice for teachers in a similar situation: bring in a flame thrower. Melt one or two of these menaces down and that will be the end of the problem. Yeah I know it would never happen but once your relinquish control, it is impossible to get it back without draconian steps.

What do you propose doing? Relocate the class to another room? How long shall we concede dominance to the passive-aggressive disruptor?

Growing up, I recall kids being smacked with rulers and slammed against walls by staff for insolent, albeit non-violent, behavior - _both_ of which quickly stopped as order & deference were quickly restored.

By threatening overwhelming punishment upon staff for forcefully restoring order, disorder reigns.

Say what you will, but the kid was no immediate threat and the cop showed poor judgement.

Really? Tell us how it should have been handled. Specifically.
