    O'Reilly had a segment dedicated to this last night. I completely understand why teachers wouldn't want to be videotaped during class seeing how it is very easy to take something someone has said out of context and completley distort it. Teachers wouldn't want students doing that to them. That is understandable. However some of these videos are beyond "violating the privacy." It seems that some of these teachers could benefit from a little less privacy and a little more scrutiny.

      The few clips I reviewed were just plain idiotic.

      Some involved the teacher encouraging mock pandamonium they should get their licence yanked for that. We do not need "adults" enabling youths to make the system more chaotic.

      Others were deliberatly goading teachers into an irrational state. As far as I'm concerned that is harrassment in the work place. This is highly dangerous. Push any human to the point of anger and then think that a few photos will be funny or save you from guilt because some spoiled brat's parents will sue is about as smart as flipping mathes at a gas pump while someone's filling up.

        I say bring it on. This is an aspect of human life we've been unable to see except through re-enactments. There aren't enough videos, there are plenty of psycho teachers out there. It's a big planet
