From comments:

A teacher in my town had a group of middle school boys arrested because she heard them talking about a game that they play in the woods. Apparently they'd run around with paintball guns. So she called the police and told them that the boys were plotting to shoot up the school. But it's evident that she knew they weren't, she just didn't like that they played with guns. In her mind, any boy who likes to play paintball is evil and intends to kill people.
Well a few weeks ago a couple of women caught up with her in the parking lot of the shopping center and maced her, then they got her on the ground and kicked a few times.
I don't know how I feel about this. On the one hand, I don't approve of violence, but on the other, it's the only way that we can show the teachers that they'll be held accountable. We can't fire them, and they're never disciplined, so what other recourse do people have?
