South Carolina High School Student Dragged From Class

[Boreas]

I've been thinking about this thread and it came to me that the principle area of disagreement comes down to how much violence should have been used to discipline a sullen teenager. Whether violence should have been employed at all doesn't seem to be on anyone's radar.

I would invite the people who favor the use of force in situations of this sort to consider what action they would take if they were dealing with similar misbehavior by their own child in their own home. Would you do what Fields did? Would you do any of the other things that have been postulated in this thread?
