'That's how people like you get shot': Georgia teacher suspended for allegedly threatening student

[Stuart G]

9. Oh my....what an idiot...but it reminds me of a story about bullets.

.I was teaching in a difficult school. This was a study hall I was supervising..maybe 15 students..probably less. So one of the very quiet young men, was fooling around with something on his desk. I walked over, and he was playing with a bullet. Also, he was kind of half asleep with his head on the desk fooling with it..So, I asked him in as nice a way possible, if he could please put that thing away, not a good thing to fool around with in school.

And that is exactly what he did, he put it away, and he kinda went to sleep for the rest of the 40 minute period. Well, in the next class, the teacher didn't handle it too well, so I heard the other teacher started yelling at the young man...say 16 years old..So............the young man took out the gun, no I didn't know that, and put the bullet in the gun and started pointing it around..They called security and took him away. He did not fire the gun, but I didn't know he had a gun. It was about 35 years ago..you don't forget something like that
