It is a hot topic right now here in the Balitmore area, as well as the rest of the country. The cell phone video of a teacher being attacked is as appalling as it is down right scary. How does a classroom full of students not help a teacher who is being attacked?
I admit I wanted to see the cell phone video of the attack once I heard it existed, but then after watching it a few times I said to myself why aren't any of the students helping the teacher.
Why is it that other students were more inclined to pull out their cell phone camera... take the time to push the buttons, set it to record and just watch. Why is it that other students carefully moved objects out of the way to the attack could continue uninterupted?
These are the questions I'd like to see answered. Let's set aside the argument over who started it. In fact lets throw that right away! This is a teacher who appears to have lost control of her classroom, and also appears have been victimized.
