KALAMAZOO, MI (WWMT/CNN) – An eighth grader is home from school and nursing a sore neck after a substitute teacher allegedly grabbed the boy around the neck and threw him out of class.
Mother of three Mona Thompson says she was hurt and traumatized when her 13-year-old son Jamyre came home from Milwood Magnet Middle School Tuesday with red marks and bruises on his neck.
According to Thompson, Jamyre claims his substitute teacher grabbed him by the neck and tried to physically remove him from class after another student threw a tennis ball at the teacher.
"The teacher asked him to leave the classroom. My son said, 'No, I'm not going to leave. I'm doing my work. It wasn't me.' The teacher asked him two more times. He was sitting at his desk at this time. I was then told by the principal that somehow the teacher walked over and decided to physically remove my son from the classroom and grabbed him by his throat,” Thompson said.
The heated physical exchange escalated and spilled into the hallway.
"After it got into the hallway, that's when the cameras caught a picture of it – when the other students were trying to help my son, and my son, in return, turned around and retaliated with a punch,” Thompson said.
(snip) to the people out there that have something to say negative about my son or, you know, 'it's about how the parents raised him'; he's been raised very well,” Thompson said.

Jamyre?
That’s a new one.
Too bad that Hogg punk didn’t have that teacher.
Yeah, he’s been raised so well that he’ll deliberately disobey a teacher and punch him in the face when the opportunity presents itself.
The schools haven’t paddled a kid in nearly half a century. Three quarters of black kids are born out of wedlock.
And a substitute (read “teacher with real world experience”) blows his top. Who’da guessed?
Jamyre’s mama was hurt and traumatized.
The mom is raising, defending and encouraging something negative upon society.
The twisted world of Obama/Hillary voters.
Did the Kid tell the Teacher who actually did throw the Ball?
Since when do Kids argue with their School Teachers?
And if you don't believe me, just aks his babydaddy.
Sometimes I think certain blacks are too challenged to name their kids, so they just throw all their letter blocks in a basket and pull out a random six or eight or so, and then rearrange them until they like what they see - without a thought for how to pronounce it.
When I was in 8th grade, a group of us boys raised hell against a weak teacher.
So the school sent in the wrestling coach (and ex-Marine) to substitute for a few days.
After a couple threats and confrontations, he had the class under control in no time.
Teacher dint ax you if you thru da ball. Teacher told you ta GTFO!
Sub was wrong but this kid isn’t innocent. It’s lawsuit time! They hit the lottery.
The complaining student lost all credibility when he refused to leave the room. At that point, the student who was removed would've gone to the office or Security or an adjacent classroom to get help. Unless that student had been aggravating a bad situation.
That's my take, anyway.
As a substitute teacher, I understand the situation. The classroom was out of control. Her authority as the teacher was not being respected. That being said, she did handle the situation wisely.
“Too bad that Hogg punk didn’t have that teacher”
Good thing for him he didn’t have the teachers/coaches/WW2 vets I had in school.
My favorite story about the names comes from the novel “Unintended Consequences”. There is a BATF agent (minor character) and she goes by the initials GG.
Turns out her mother wanted an interesting name and couldn’t come up with anything. The doctor has a suggestion that sounded good, so the mother went with that. The woman’s name sort of rhymes with “Gloria” but it’s spelling “Gonorrhea”.
Yeah, as an adult, she went by GG.
“Yeah, he’s been raised so well that he’ll deliberately disobey a teacher and punch him in the face when the opportunity presents itself”
A kid tried that with our assistant football coach ( a former college tackle...incidentally). A couple of days later after he got out of hospital and returned to school we razzed him unmercifully over his two shiners and missing teeth. When America was still America.
