This makes my blood boil. This is just a more sophisticated form of bullying. It reminds me of that shocking scene of the girl in class being a victim of police brutality while the school teacher and admin watched. The gist of the school response was that she was acting up and deserved what she got. If I was in charge, any teacher or admin who watched a child be victimized by a police officer, would be instantly fired. Child safety is an absolute baseline of education. Those who cannot grasp this or choose to employ it based on racial or class lines...need to find another job.
