Is it compassionate or reckless not immediately firing on this guy?

I understand that it seems like he knows the guy and his history, but at what point do you stop waiting for someone to “run out of bullets”?

In your opinion as LEOs should citizens fight back in robberies like this? Or does that just increase the likelihood of casualties?

Looking forward to silence

As summer nears, I feel like, more than drinking, going to the gym, going to the beach, more than anything else, I’m looking forward to at least two days of silence. I’m a middle school teacher, so I always have students in my classroom before school, during snack, and even occasionally during lunch. And they all *need* something—to laugh with me, complain to me, or just plain chat—and I love that I’ve built this rapport with them, but *LORD* I just want to sit in silence the first two days of summer so I can hear myself think. Love them to death, but I’m desperately looking forward to sitting with a book in my living room with my pets and letting the sunlight drift in as I don’t have to worry about mediating the latest easily solved drama or reminding my 8th graders to be good humans to each other. End rant!

End of the year got me like

Caught a student circling pictures of black people in a magazine and writing the n-word (I’m black, if that matters). Didn’t have the energy to get mad and/or have a restorative conversation. Just off to the VP’s office and a referral for good measure.
