Hmm.
So you'd be happy for this guy to teach your kids?

If I had kids, I'd be happy letting Gary Glitter and Jonathon King take them camping for the weekend in Wales!

I think you are both silly boys, and you would soon change your tune if you had spawnz of your own!

(Of course this is only a guess, you shall have to get back to me if it ever happens and tell me if I'm right.)

I think my sympathy would be with the Teacher. Kids are f**kers.

No, I think the bloke was clearly provoked to a staggering degree. Now if there's fault it's with the school for allowing this situation to continue and get to such a point where the bloke Hulks out in class.

Blame must also go to the kids themselves, and their parents of these kids.

Aaargh.
You're all fecking mentals.

Next time your kid misbehaves at school and the teacher beats him to death I'm sure you'll all say well, fair enough, teachers do get a hard time.

Yes, the kids are shits and should have been expelled. But that doesn't excuse massive violent attacks!
And it's frankly stupid to say you support what he did, or you're glad he did it.

Indeed; any blame should go to the school itself, for allowing this known troublemaker to be part of the class, and arguably for letting the guy back into the classroom seemingly so quickly after this stress leave.

It's worth saying it just to make you mad!
I'm hoping I can provoke you into taking a barbell to my head!

Definitely.
There will have been well behaved kids in that classroom who had nothing to do with the situation, and had to see it all happen, and the aftermath. Totally disturbing and unecessary.

I'm not having kids, they're f**kers.

The tragedy is it never should have got to that point. Our hamfisted government has destroyed much of the respect teachers and other public figures need.

We had 2 cases of student-teacher violence when I was in high school. In the first case, a teacher tried to break up a fight between 2 students and one of the kids punched the teacher in the face. The teacher retaliated by bouncing the student's head off a metal pole. The kid simmered down immediately.

The second instance took place when a kid ran down the hallway and threw an entire strawberry milkshake in a 70-year-old teacher's face. I'll never forget how sad he looked as he stood there with milkshake dripping of his immaculate suit. He was a really nice old guy and I would gladly have helped him crack that kid's skull with a dumbbell.

I'm with you. Certainly the kid was 'orrible, and sure, teachers shouldn't have to put up with this, and yes yes, the poor guy had a terrible time of things, his wife was suicidal, his own kid had problems...but even so, beating a child on the head so hard as to fracture his skull whilst chanting "die die die!" is somewhat excessive even by supernanny standards. He *knew* he was liable to do this, because he had already voiced concerns about his ability to cope. He was a violent head-case who chose not to avoid the classroom, despite knowing he should.

*cries with relief*
Someone agrees with meeeeee.

What about the cases where a child is bullied so much that he/she commits suicide? The blame is always pinned on the bully for making the child jump off the deep end, so why is it the other way around in this case?
