Weasel Zippers: NJ Student Slams Teacher To Floor For Taking His Phone Away
We are dealing with a generation that doesn’t respect authority, rules and the law. The teacher violated his human and civil rights (sarcasm).

(via. North Jersey:
--A ninth-grader at John F. Kennedy High School in Paterson was arrested Friday and charged with assaulting a teacher in a classroom.

The attack, captured on video, shows the teen slamming the 62-year-old educator to the floor in front of other students in an effort to get his cellphone back.

City school officials confirmed that criminal charges have been filed against the student, who has been suspended from school.

Someone in the classroom recorded the assault, which officials say took place at about 1 pm on Tuesday, and the video has been posted on YouTube.

The 23-second video shows the 16-year-old with his arms wrapped around the teacher, knocking him into an empty desk. The student then wrestles the teacher across the front of the classroom before slamming him to the floor. The teen then reaches down and wrests something from the teacher before breaking away when someone in the classroom yelled: “Security.”[…]

She said the student while on suspension will receive home instruction and a disciplinary hearing will determine “an appropriate, educational placement” for the rest of the school year.

“I’m disappointed I didn’t see any other kids in the classroom help [the teacher] out,” Tirri said about the events depicted in the short video. “Maybe they were afraid. I don’t know.”

“What strikes me is that the teacher never even defended himself,” said Lee McNulty, a retired JFK teacher who has been vocal recently with criticism about violence and disorder in the high school. “That just shows how much teachers are afraid of losing their job.”

“It’s troubling that in our society today students think that inside a school they can put their hands on each other and teachers as well,” said Jonathan Hodges, a veteran school board member. “I went online trying to find this video and I found numerous videos of teachers being attacked by their students.” (more here)
 
um, since when can a teacher put their hands on a student and their property and try to snatch a student's property out of their hands? a teacher doesn't have that authority to snatch anything from a student's hand... would you just let someone out in the street try to snatch your cell phone right out of your hand with out fighting to get it back?

people think that students are the only ones that have the issues but it's the teachers that have some issues as well... thinking they can do whatever they want to any student just like how cops think they can do whatever or say whatever they want to the public...

So...you're saying the teacher got what he deserved? :|
That's some cold thinking, fella'...you ever thought that maybe - just maybe - the reason the teacher took possession of the student's cellphone was that the student was using his cellphone in class when he shouldn't've? Or does a student's right to converse at any time of the day supersede a teacher's right to be able to conduct class in a somewhat decent manner? :| :|

you're just assuming stuff @webster, and no, the teacher has no right to physically grab student's property from their hands or take any property from a student... if the teacher had an issue then the resource officer needs to get involved... end of story, game over, period...
