I feel he did. Teachers get into a shit ton of trouble nowadays when they try to restrain students, even if it's to break up a fight. My husband works at a school district.

What could he have done wrong? He just pushed an aggressive kid aside, nothing more. Maybe fatty should have behaved like a human being.

Skinny girl missed an obvious opportunity to kick at fat girl's knees and shins. Lame.

Obviously the man did the right thing.

The female school administrator was appallingly ineffective in stopping the fight with verbal means and the fight would've escalated if he hadn't come in the way he did.

People saying that the principal should not have laid hands on the rampaging girl are basically preferring to have the girl cowering on the ground from vicious hits and kicks to keep getting beaten by her same sex attacker rather than have a man intervene and stop the fight physically with a harmless push.

What's the world coming to?

That's justice. The hypocritical bitch needed to get a taste of her own medicine. From what I can see, she was much larger than the victim..

Don't start a fight you can't finish in 1-2 blows. He finished in 1 blow, and should be given a raise.
