Sun Black teacher arrested for defending himself from latino student in Vegas. Free Ra’Kwon Smith!

Although the kid 100% deserved it, the teacher is still in the wrong.
He could've argued self-defense (if the background story is accurate), but when the kid went down, he stood over him and then punched him again. That right there is what will do him in.

No matter what, fighting a student will never go in your favor.

What would be "fair" is to keep your opinion to yourself instead of speculating on something you have no factual information on.

Are you the teacher in question. I'm going by what i see on video. Not what ever story you have contrived in your head.

Didn’t punch him it was an open hand slap.

Can you provide a source to the background story you provided?

That’s what they said in the news story and comments.

cant be an adult and let a child take you out of your element

Question? Have you worked around the kids of today? I have and I’ll be the first to let you know, they ain’t small, they talk shyt like they’re adults and will try to fight you. I’m not saying he should’ve beat the boys ass but I will say as a former bus driver, I can see how it happened.

don't matter.

you'll never win hitting a student.

What you witnessed on video & what you actually know about the incident in question are two totally separate things altogether.

This not even a good look considering that dude is like 12

That doesn't make it any better

 

[CrushedGroove]

I understand why he did what he did. Should have tried to just wrap him up instead of throwing hands.

He shouldn't have been arrested, shouldn't have faced any disciplinary action. school just signaled it's open season on black educators.

if it was a black student and white teacher would you say the same?

I actually agree with you but weve had threads like this with black students and folks talk a lot different.
