Quote:A Mobile school teacher has been arrested by police for allegedly having sexual contact with a student.

Mobile Police say 32-year-old teacher Deandre Gerard Hill turned himself in to Mobile Metro Jail on Thursday. A warrant for Hill's arrest was issued by police on Tuesday.

According to police, a female student at a Mobile County middle school told school officials Hill had made "statements of a sexual nature" to her while they were both in his classroom.

A subsequent investigation revealed enough evidence to charge Hill with School Employee Having Sexual Contact with a Student Under 19 Years of Age.

Just exposing a real threat to the safety of our children. The more we expose the perverts and predators our kids are forced to be around for a significant portion of their lives the better the world will be.

The odds your child is sexually abused by their teacher is pretty low, you'd be better spent watching your relatives when they spend time with your children. Furthermore, the thread title is not true, calling something an epidemic has specific meaning to it that you're ignoring.

What is your actual reason for this thread? If you're truly trying to document something, posting singular news articles isn't how to go about it. Find data to show a change in it's incidence.

Why do you have a problem with this thread? Do you not think that sunshine is the great sanitizer? Should we keep these incidents hidden, or should they be put out there for everyone to see?

It's not a matter of keeping these incidents hidden, but more a matter of not cluttering up your own life with concerns about issues that, statistically speaking, are inefficient uses of ones time/energy/money. And you're just perpetuating the continual narrative of 'these days' which ignores the fact that 'these days' we're safer than ever before.

So why did you create the thread about the UK riots?

This should never happen ever, ever, ever.

I don't think it is fair to call it an epidemic however unless you can compare it to a similar institution where there is this much exposure to children without the same percentage of criminal activity.

Because the thread isn't about the UK riot, or even Ferguson. It's about the societal response to similar events and how that could affect national policy.

And that's not "cluttering up your own life with concerns about issues that, statistically speaking, are inefficient uses of ones time/energy/money"? What is your job title? Are you in a position that allows you to have a direct effect on national policy?

I'll be glad to do it. What other group of strangers am I forced by law to turn my children over to for a significant portion of the day/year? I'll be glad to do the comparison.

That was my point. There is no comparison and it's not an epidemic. It's just the world we live in.

Wait, what? No one is forcing your children to go to Public school, there is always private and homeschooling. But your statement itself shows me that you are grossly uneducated on the realities of child molestation/abuse if you are this concerned about 'strangers'.

So what you are saying is you would prefer that we keep these incidents in the dark?

Just trying to get where you are coming from here.

It's the same answer as the first time you asked.

It's a simple question to answer:

It's either

A. "Yes Kaplony, I want to keep these issues in the dark."

or

B. "No, I think that these issues should be brought to light."


It doesn't require a thesis, a simple yes or no will suffice.

Once again...what you are saying is you would prefer that we keep these incidents in the dark?

Not at all. I'm just saying it's not an epidemic.

Question for all the "educators", do you have to take a drug test?

Couldn't a teacher fall under other known person or acquaintance? Since "teacher" isn't specifically mentioned it could still be a legitimate concern.

Blunder,...sshhhh Zer0 Ocho is the "smartest guy in the room" haven't you heard.

Absolutely they could, I would probably consider a childs direct teacher to be that, and other teachers to be more along the lines of strangers. But that doesn't really change the point I'm making.

Also, we going to address the part where he says you have to send your children to school when you absolutely don't?

I'm a far more reasonable person that you'd like to give me credit for.
