should have used the dogs and fire hoses on the little bastards!!!!1
no i was there i was a student at tollestan school 7th grade and i believe that the polices went to far and i got sprayed in the eye. the students went off cause the police did and i dont blame them tollestan is bad but the police and principal didnt have the right to spray and arrest us.
My brother is a teacher and he has had the misfortune of having a student threaten him with a knife. Teachers really have their hands tied when it comes to maintaining order in the classroom. Ultimately, the responsibility here is with the parents. I did not witness this event, so I have no way of knowing who is in the right. Sounds like there might be some problems on both sides. It is unfortunate that pepper spray was used, but it may have really been necessary.
The key to solving many of the problems in our society is having a solid educational foundation for our youth so that they can compete in a world that is cranking out engineers and other highly educated people who will do economic battle with us.
Let’s hope that the person who wins the November inspires students to do their best to learn. Also, we must hope that parents and students also take personal responsibility to learn everything they can in school so that they can compete economically. Education brings with it true economic freedom.
