A real justice system, such as victim prosecution, would have arrested the teacher on the spot, considering the article has what looks like frames from a video of the teacher grabbing the student and tossing him. But government employee, teachers union, and qualified immunity make me doubt much will ever happen to the teacher. Reassignment to another school is a joke, and I hope parents there raise holy hell.
Just one question , where's the kid's dad's reaction?
Is this what they mean by "Institutional Racism?" Because we only ever see this kind of thing out of one race. Like, it's kind of an institutional thing for them.
The sociopath thugs of yesterday build the sociopath thugs of tomorrow.
I also echo Adans question. What's dad's reaction? But both for the student and the teacher?
Was the teacher trans? Was the kid trans? Was the mom trans? What was the skin color of everyone involved?
How am I supposed to know who the *real* victim is here?
Whack teachers be treylin'.
I can't believe you would mock such a beautiful, Christian-ish sounding name.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.
This really troubled me, so I asked the Teacher about it.
"Teacher, you said once I decided to follow you,
you'd walk with me all the way to Jr. High.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
When someone insulted my mother,
There was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me."
He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints,
It was then that I threw you."
It's "wack"
I don't know why, either.
> No charges have been filed against Elder.
Of course not. Public school teachers are government employees. And they have special privilege. Special. Privilege.
Time to defund the public schools. REAL school choice now!
I gotta think the stock pic with the article is not representative of BeTreylin.
When he was hoops coach and they were losing, he'd huddle and say "Damn! We BeTreylin!"
He cheated on his first wife, Lin.
