The two assault counts seem obvious. \u201cWant me to hit you again?\u201d certainly seems like communicating a threat.<\/p>\n<p>The misdemeanor counts mean he can\u2019t be charged as an adult, O\u2019Neil told WGHP.<\/p>\n<p>Oh, and he\u2019s likely to be expelled from school.<\/p>\n<p>Does anyone think any of that is going to deter another classroom attack like this?<\/p>\n<p>Neither the teacher nor the student has been publicly identified, nor was there information about what led up to the confrontation.<\/p>\n<p>But it\u2019s a pretty good bet that the interaction wasn\u2019t the student\u2019s first run-in with authority, or his first obviously criminal act. (Very few kids go from finishing-school good manners to slapping a teacher in 0.6 seconds.)<\/p>\n<p>The painful reality, though, is that the video \u2014 as shocking as it is \u2014 isn\u2019t all that much different from what the country has seen playing out on its television and computer screens for much of the past eight years.<\/p>\n<p>The inauguration of Donald Trump as president was marked by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/ok-dems-feds-dropped-charges-rioters-trumps-inauguration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">rioting in the streets<\/a> of Washington D.C., that Democrats would call an \u201cinsurrection\u201d if it hadn\u2019t been their political base.<\/p>\n<p>And across the country, years before the name \u201cGeorge Floyd\u201d became a symbol of martyrdom to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/court-docs-medical-examiner-said-george-floyd-stunning-level-drugs-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">drug-addled<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/jemimamcevoy\/2020\/07\/08\/new-transcripts-reveal-how-suspicion-over-counterfeit-money-escalated-into-the-death-of-george-floyd\/?sh=2b37bd1746ba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">counterfeiters<\/a> everywhere, progressive gangs under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/trump-watching-portland-protests-closely-threatens-label-antifa-organization-terror\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">umbrella name of \u201cantifa\u201d<\/a> were wreaking their own brand of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/4-officers-shot-furious-police-union-pres-lays-media-antifa-types-sick-tired-dirtbags-trying-take-lives-ones-spreading-rhetoric-police-officers-enemy\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lawless havoc<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Then came the George Floyd madness, when Democratic-run local governments <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/nyc-saw-massive-crime-surge-george-floyd-protests-rocked-city\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">abdicated their responsibility<\/a> to protect the lives and property of citizens, and the die was set.<\/p>\n<p>In that context, the video last week out of North Carolina was shocking, maybe, but not entirely surprising. It\u2019s less a canary in the coal mine than confirmation that the bird died long ago \u2014 suffocated by the poisoned air of progressive politics.<\/p>\n<p>No matter what happens to this kid in Winston-Salem, it\u2019s not going to make honest, contributing citizens out of those little zombies in the classroom who did nothing constructive while their teacher was assaulted.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not going to make public schools across the country any safer than they are today.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, there\u2019s not much that\u2019s going to come out of this prosecution that\u2019s going to do anything more than maybe keep what appears to be a very dangerous young man off the streets for a year or so \u2014 and <em>probably<\/em> out of Parkland High School for good.<\/p>\n<p>But if that\u2019s the best justice that can come out of this case, the DA in Forsyth County and the court system can live up to it \u2014 for their community\u2019s good, and maybe for this young criminal\u2019s good, too.<\/p>\n<p>Throw the book at him.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<div>\n<p><b><i>A Note from Our Deputy Managing Editor:<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p><i><span>\u201cWe don\u2019t even know if an election will be held in 2024.\u201d Those 12 words have been stuck in my head since I first read them. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<p><i><span>Former Lt.
