Brickbat: All Tied Up

A Savannah-Chatham County, Georgia, special education teacher, has been charged with felony cruelty to children for using zip ties to bind a student in her classroom. Elizabeth Louise Board, a teacher at Godley Station K-8 School, reportedly tied a boy to his chair and to a table. She faces five to 20 years in prison if convicted.

Why not charging with felony kidnapping? The zip ties show premeditation.
Why not insurrection?
Why not, indeed!
Don’t fear the revolt!
(insurrection)!
All our times have come
Here, but now they’re gone
Seasons don’t fear the revolt
Nor do the wind, the sun, or the rain
(We can be like they are)
Come on, baby
(Don’t fear the revolt)
Baby, take my hand
(Don’t fear the revolt)
We’ll be able to fly
Baby, I’m your man
La, la la, la la
La, la la, la la
Valentine is done
Here but now they’re gone
Horst Wessel and Ashli Babbs
Are together in eternity

I'd heard the phrase Horst Wessel, but never knew it was a man's name. I probably thought it had something to do with horses, or just relegated it to the category of odd-sounding German phrases, like vienna schnitzel.
Reichsquirreler Squoebbels is also German.
Just like JFK!
"Ich bin ein Bear-Wiener" also!

When I first read about Horst Wessel Lied I asked myself: "Well, what did he lie about?"
He lied to Ashli Babbs... It came straight from the Horst's mouth!
He lied to Ashli Babbs, saying that he SOOOO Deeply Loved Her... But he didn't really!
WHY did he lie??!? (One guess only):

... A Horst is a Horst is a Horsty Horst, of course! He wanted to Horst around, feel his AND her oats, and then get down her pants!
They laughed at him because he said he was a doughnut. “Ick” is/was the proper pronunciation in Berlin.
Horst was a n'er do well who got himself killed in a bar fight, presumably over a woman.
Somehow Rohm and Company [aka the SA] got him turned into a Nazi hero and made up a song about him.
A White Knight in more ways than one.
A statement issued by the school district stated that Board was reassigned to an alternative site location that had no contact with students after campus police received the allegations.
Premeditation? That's the just the kind of forward-thinking we're looking for around here! From now on, we'll do our best to make sure those filthy kids aren't holding you back professionally. Show up to your new office in the morning.

Without knowing the race of the teacher and student how do we know what outrage level we should be at?
If the teacher were white and the student black, it would have led the story.
What happened to equality? Poor kids are just as smart and just as talented as special education kids.
She was white. Take a look at her picture in the linked article. Would you let that near a kid?
Kids should social distance at least 600 feet from a public school teacher.
I got tied up in traffic, against my will!!!
WHO is gonna serve 20 years in jail for this offense against me!??!?!
The old man driving 5 mph at the front of the traffic jam.
Silly teacher. The proper way to deal with students being male is to make them sit on the floor and not speak (at least according to one of the fake SJW manuscripts submitted by Pluckrose et al. in 2018).
Why is it easier to charge her with a felony than to simply fire her?
Her union can't interfere with it.
Bingo! Winner, winner, chicken dinner!
Well thank god at least she wasn't wandering around the capitol taking pictures, that merits a life sentence these days.
Pro Libertarian Tip: If you can slip a nail or a pin or the loose end of the zip-tie into the little clasp that holds the length of the zip-tie in a loop, right under the little plastic piece that clamps the zip-tie length, then you can loosen the zip-tie and get free. There are YouTube videos on the subject. I've tried it and it works!
Remember also: A rope is at it's weakest at the point where it bends to form a knot and a chain is only as strong as it's weakest link. And sooner than you think, the freedom you save may be your own!
I an a cheap bastard; I always do that to zip ties that come with merchandise so I can used them later. If brightly colored that make great empty chamber flags for my ARs and pistols.
why was that child not drugged into submission prior to homeroom?
It should be a crime. 5 years is excessive. 7 days would make the point without unduly burdening the tax payers.
What? No qualified immunity?
