Detroit Teacher Fired For Breaking Up Fight

I saw this story on the news about this teacher that was fired for breaking up a fight using a broom. I wish it has a nail at the end of it. At Pershing High School in Detroit, Michigan these two boys got into a fight. This wasn't a regular ass fight. It was a brawl. Another student was filming this as the teacher shouted at the boys after they fought for over half a minute. That sounds like a short amount of time, right? Start swinging wildly for thirty seconds and tell me how you feel. The teacher was fired and accused of child abuse while each boy got suspended for ten days. Now, I know it sounds bad. A teacher hitting students with a broom. That is until you hear more of the story. The walkie-talkie that the teachers have to call for security and such was broken so she couldn't even call for backup. Also, fuck kids fighting in school like this. Wait till lunch like a normal person. 

Another student was finally able to pull the two apart. Keith Johnson who is President of the Detroit Federation of Teachers says that the teacher was wrong for using a broom but he understood why she did. “Unfortunately, the method that she used, in terms of swatting one with a broom, is a violation of the corporal punishment provision under the Michigan school code. But she's caught in a quandary because under that same code she's expected to do what is necessary to diffuse a situation.” One of the boys interviewed said that the teacher should have called for help, waited for the fight to end, and when asked if he felt as if he caused her firing he said that she “got what she deserved.” Fuck this kid. And his mother. She was just as stupid as him when she was interviewed. They pointed out, like, what if the teacher did nothing and let the boys fight? What then? The mother pretty much said either way she would side with her dumb ass kid. I would've suplexed both kids through their desks. What would you have done?
