Kind of surprising at the end, where it reveals that this science teacher/mother of two was also in trouble for slashing someone's tires.

[Abbess Jade]

I wonder why she beat the kid.


If he was like any of the kids at my school, I really don't blame her.

[Dimocritus]

My teacher beats me up every morning...

I'm up at 8:00, and he gets up at 7:45...

Oh hey, that's a change from when I was in school.  They used to charge students with assault after teachers attacked them.

It doesn't matter why, and there is no way for it to ever be OK for an adult, or any stronger person, to beat a child or weaker person past the point of defenselessness.

But seriously, ladies and germs, I just flew in from Guam, and boy are my arms tired.



OT: I agree with Nigel.

I know. I'm not condoning it.

It just makes me wonder what he must have done or said to possibly go as far as beat the boy.

Here's the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BZgn8-aaiz0

It looks like fun and games until she starts kicking and punching.

[Jasper]

Teachers are NOT supposed to act like thugs.

End of story.

[Abbess Jade]

Whoa, that's horrible.

And there were all those kids around, too.

No one came to stop her?

[Kai]

Okay, that was obviously not self defense. Regardless of what HE said or did to instigate, she deserved to be fired and frankly should have been tried for assault on a minor.

I winced when his head hit the wall. Ouch.

[Kai]

Whoa, that's horrible.

And get suspension or expelled for "assaulting" a teacher?

Goddamn I hate humans.

[Abbess Jade]

From the people talking and laughing in the video, apparently he was trying to fight the fat girl at the end of the clip. And the teacher apparently got mad and beat him, or something.


I don't know, but the teacher needs to end up in jail, seriously. She needs to be tried for assault on a minor, something. She needs to be put away.

And get suspension or expelled for "assaulting" a teacher?

Goddamn I hate humans.

He got suspended/expelled?
