> Actions HAVE consequences.

That is a fascinatingly passive synonym for "struggle session."

[ratww]

This is hyperbolic and disrespectful to people who actually went trough it.

Breaking the law has consequences. And the only consequence here is her being prosecuted for assault and battery and potentially going to jail. This has nothing to do with racism accusation, and is nothing compared to the torture you're suggesting.

[jariel]

This is hyperbolic.

Nobody is going to jail for grabbing someone's arm.

Even hitting someone - it's not nice, but not a big deal.

What is wrong with the rhetoric here?

This is a 'non incident' - someone was upset over a lost phone, and some minor classroom shenanigans played out.

Nobody was hurt, nothing happened, it doesn't even belong in the courts.

The woman is up for DUI she's a little unhinged, some people are like that, life goes on.
