Principal's lucky he didn't pull that sh*t down in the states. Law-suits would've been drawn up, filed, and served before the kid even hit the floor.

Little lying bastard and self professed troublemaker - "I went blank, I went into shock, I was a dick and got my ass kicked by and "old man".
STFU.

“A friend was saying, had the situation been in reverse, had that been a white principal who took the same action against a black student, would the outcome have been the same?” said Wayne Coady, a father of three grown children. “There could have been a riot.”

So true.

The Black Educators Association rallied to his defence.

Funny I've never heard of a white Educators Association.

I wonder why not.

Why would they, clearly the principal over reacted.

Called double standards.

Wow....I wonder what the evidence was that the board heard that everyone else hasn't?
