While I think he's a crap teacher (The ones that have to shout so much have lost control of the class) I'll still side with him.
The guys in my opinion were looking for trouble, going to school is not about being an individual , its about conforming . Its about sitting down with others and learning what the system wants you to learn.Thats why so many schools have a uniform policy , to help you understand to leave your individuality at home.
This incident would not have raised an eyebrow if it had happened when I was at school in England over 20 years ago, one teacher used to have the habit of throwing one of those heavy board rubbers at you if you failed to pay attention.
Now its all about the individuals rights and the teachers are not allowed to do anything other than ask you nicely to obey them. I would not like to be a teacher today!!
