Teacher teacher I declare, I see your blood everywhere....

"A teacher who was shot by her 6-year-old student in Virginia can press forward with her $40 million lawsuit against a school system over claims of negligence by school administrators, a judge ruled Friday.

......Lawyers for Newport News Public Schools had tried to block the lawsuit, arguing that Zwerner was eligible only for workers compensation.

.....Hoffman disagreed with the school board, concluding that Zwerner's injuries 'did not arise out of her employment' and therefore did not 'fall within the exclusive provisions of workers' compensation coverage.'

The judge wrote: 'The danger of being shot by a student is not one that is peculiar or unique to the job of a first-grade teacher.'

Zwerner was hospitalized for nearly two weeks and endured multiple surgeries after a bullet struck her hand and chest."

Dayumn! Teachers everywhere must be thrilled that a judge says getting shot in class isn't "peculiar or unique to the job of a first-grade teacher. "

A recent article in the paper shows a guy who lives here on the Central Coast, UFC fighter Chuck Liddell, promoting an AR15 scaled down for children..... a week after the teacher got shot.

Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene tweeted in support of the firearm last year, suggesting that children at the mass shooting in Uvalde, Texas, could have defended themselves with the JR-15.
