“Don’t make a wrong move,” the officer said as he pinned the struggling subject to the ground. “Period.”
The officer tightened the handcuffs around the subject’s thin wrists.
“Ow, ow, ow, it really hurts,” the subject exclaimed.
The officer pressed his weight into the subject’s small body while school staff watched it all unfold. The person he was restraining was 7 years old.
I’ve been teaching in Title I schools…elementary, middle, and high school…where about 70% of students come from low-income households for twenty years. Not only are you dead wrong, your prejudice is showing.
Where the fuck did I say anything about race or income? You’re the one that brought that up. Get off your high horse; our test scores, no child left behind, stagnant and low teacher pay, large class sizes and admins who don’t stand up to parents and toss the teachers under the bus have caused this…race and income have nothing to do with it.
“Kids are being raised by kids” is shorthand for “poor, inner city students”. Don’t feign ignorance. You knew very well your implication.
Wow way to read into shit that isn’t there. Go find some other bullshit grenade to fall on. Nothing I said had anything to do with just the inner city. I literally even said that it’s all schools, rural, inner city, rich or poor, they all are having the same issue…but holy fuck are you some ignorant shit if your incapable of understanding how bad our schools are right now…and even funnier that you search for racism/classism that isnt there.
