I think he said 'scorpion' which seemed to be the douche bag's name. It sounded like he was telling him to leave, to try and calm him down...But thats just my take on it after a couple listens.

Dude probably gets thrown out of class on the regular.

i'm not really surprised at the flock of ****ing reeruned idiots who think that this is acceptable to :

1) speak to elders like this
2)speak to authority figure like this
3)speak to a teacher like this
4)behave in public like this
5)handle conflict in an outburst, rather than 1 on 1
6)use 'fricken' repeatedly, in classroom
7)behave aggressively
8)disregard an order to leave


Obviously you are all products of the pussification of our country. When I was in school, this may have been cause for getting permanently removed from whatever class that was...

Anyone that thinks this kid 'did the right thing' (despite whether he may be factually correct that packets suck) is a part of the ****ing problem and not the solution.

Good luck with your shitty jobs and lives in the trailer park.

attitudes like yours is part of the problem.

Not everybody is easily manipulated and able to be completely controlled like you are.

Although I wholeheartedly agree with the kid's point, I kinda agree that interrupting class with a tantrum is likely not the best way to communicate it. I might change my mind if I knew what led up to the tantrum.

Exactly. From the fairly calm demeanor of the teacher, I'm going to guess she didn't 'lose it' but without seeing the whole thing , who knows...

From the reaction of the students at the end of the video (giggling, calling him a baby...,saying his name to get him to leave...) I'm gonna go out on a limb and guess he is in the wrong.

I don't know how teachers do it these days. I could only teach with the swat board. Anyone remember those? You acted like that kid and you got a swat with a big thick wooden board.

especially with this generation of ****s who think this behavior is normal, and call to support theior douche bag children when they 'stand up to the man' like this & get punished.


Does anyone really wonder why this country is turning into shit?

If you behaved this way at work, you would get fired.

This kid probably needs to be in a SWS (School Within a School) environment. We used to have one here, and it was awesome. It was for all those crazy intelligent kids who just don't do well in a "regular" classroom environment (though this particular classroom in the video sounds subpar by any standard).

Our SWS kids would do amazing things. Sure, they came to school barefoot, wore pajamas, and called their SWS teachers by their first names, but they got shit done and went on to success whereas without the program, they'd have been a disruption in any class in which they sat and failed miserably.

That's basically what the school i worked at was like. It wasn't like any other Court school, as we only took in kids that the staff felt had a real legitimate chance at success.

It's a shame that guys like Pawn over here judge them the way they do, without having any real understanding of what kids like these are like.

EXACTLY



LOL @1:18 So don’t try and take credibility for teaching me jack.
Umm…I think the word would be…..credit.

guy should get a teaching degree then he can show her how it's done.

I've seen this video a million times and each time I ask the same question: You get a 2 minute snap shot of a teenage kids perceived injustice. You don't know the context, the history of the kid or the teacher, yet you choose to champion a teenage kid who knows nothing of the world because he sprinkles some truth in there.


Newsflash: That is how teenagers argue. Their problem is not that they can't see the truth, just that they don't know what to do with it when it's in their grasp.
