What do you'all make of the teacher arrested this past Monday night in Abbeville, Louisiana? I gotta say I'm glad for smartphone video - the whole ugly fiasco has been downloaded to the Internet for the whole world to see. Suffice it to say this teacher may find herself significantly richer not too far off and what's heart warming is that even in the conservative deep South, most of Abbeville, Louisiana seems to be siding with the teacher and against town officials!!! It's so heart warming to see people turning on officials and demanding human rights/the rule of law to be followed.
I await this teacher's settlement with anticipation and am of the mind that a penny less than 7 million dollars US is revictimazation. And I will close this with - duh? Why are there still officials of any kind out there who don't understand the power of smartphone video and the power of social media/the Internet. It's not as hard as it once was for everyday people to retaliate legally against evil such as what this teacher endured - you'd think by now officials would realize that the balance of power has shifted and there ain't (said on purpose, I know it's an illiteracy) no (ditto for the double negative) going back........Rob
