So assault isn't breaking a law? If U see you and just start punching on you causing bruising and bleeding, maybe a bloodied nose, is that not against the law? That lady went for that kid's head. It's wrong in all aspects... And in the streets, if someone was just attacked like that, I guarantee you they would've been arrested...matter of fact, I'm willing to bet that if the teacher was some 6'6" man teacher and the student was small and petite girl, it would've been 'against the law' .
