A white teen in Texas choked a brown peer; the victim was suspended for 3 days

Yep...board cons love it, too.

As incidents of hate against the Asian American Pacific Islander (AAPI) community continue to increase nationwide, adults are not the only ones perpetrating violence. AAPI children are facing increased bullying, and similarly to how some adults are treated, the children often face bias when it comes to reporting that harassment.

A video of an Indian American boy being bullied at school in Texas has gone viral for not only depicting a white child choking him for over four minutes, but for the actions taken against the bully. After Shaan Pritmani was bullied and choked at Coppell Middle School in Dallas, he was suspended for three days while his white perpetrator received only one day of suspension.

The incident took place on May 11. It quickly went viral after the North American Association of Indian Students posted a clip on Twitter depicting Pritmani’s attack.

In the video, Pritmani can be seen sitting at a lunch table when another student tells him to get up. When he refuses, the student grabs his neck and drags him off his seat.


"There were many kids in the cafeteria last Wednesday," Kamlesh Pritmani, Shaan Pritmani's father, told The Quint. "Friends share the same table at lunch. Shaan was going to the same table for lunch for more than a year."

"Recently, Nichloas Wellington started coming to that table and started telling Shaan that 'no one likes you on the table, please go elsewhere.' On Tuesday, Nick told Shaan - 'If you keep coming to this table, I will make you leave this table. Then on Wednesday, this happened.’”

While other students can be heard reacting, none attempted to stop the bullying.

After the incident, Pritmani’s parents were allegedly contacted by school officials, who said he was involved in a violent incident and would be suspended as a result. Kamlesh Pritmani noted that the assistant principal made it seem like it was a fight between two students, but upon seeing the video, it was clear that Pritmani was a victim of assault.

“It was horrible. I couldn’t sleep for three nights straight. It felt like I was being choked. I cried many times watching it,” Sonika Pritmani, Shaan Pritmani’s mother, said after seeing the video.


Across social media platforms, people were outraged that the school failed to address the issue in the correct manner. They accused the school of racial bias and questioned how it treats its students of color.

According to local outlets, some even suggested that the school was protecting the aggressor because his father, identified as Sam Wellington, is a member of the Coppell Independent School District (CISD) Board of Trustees.

Shaan's mother started an online petition for action to be taken, and for the perpetrator to be removed from school.

"The school stated that the victim (Shaan) was at fault and received a 3-day ISS, while the aggressor only received a 1-day ISS.” The petition also notes the school said that "there will be no change in the course of action." Additionally, it alleges that a CISD SRO officer refused to file a citation because the school administration requested against it, because there have been "too many bullying complaints lately.”

"Shaan should never have to take a class, interact, or pass the hallways with this aggressor ever again. Shaan should be able to continue his school experience, friendships and extra-curricular activities with zero worry of ever having to cross paths with this student again. He does not feel safe," the petition says.

All four Indian American members of Congress expressed their concern regarding the incident in a joint statement.

"We are writing to express our deep concern about the recent incident of bullying which occurred at Coppell Middle School North in the Coppell Independent School District (CISD). As you know, a widely circulated video of the incident shows 14-year-old Shaan Pritmani being assaulted and eventually 'choked out' in an alleged wrestling maneuver that could have resulted in serious injury," Congressmen Ami Bera, Ro Khanna, Raja Krishnamoorthi, and Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal said in a joint statement.

I sigh in your general direction.

Fascinating. What was Pritmani suspended for? His neck jumped into the other student's grasp as he got choked and thrown from the table? :roll:

Seems horrible. His tinder date, if they were trans, should not have lied about that. Honesty is the best policy. That said, uh yeah, date deception doesn't give you a right to kill. A "Crying Game" moment doesn't mean you can become an executioner.

Dunno why this was posted in the thread. If it was to remind people that A-As kill people too ... I knew that. Thanks. Pointless, but thx.

Dunno, homes, they should stop handing them assault weapons to pose and play with like toys while they're still toddlers.

Mine not to tell other parents how to raise their kids, but I'll add this tip: if your kid wants a seat at a cafeteria table, that doesn't give him the right to grab another kid by the neck and yank him out of the seat.

Teach your children well.

Tip for the school adults: the kid who was yanked out of his seat was not at fault.

If crime has nothing to do with race - other than perhaps sociologically - why do you pose this question this way? The reason I ask:

From my POV, a "high crime" neighborhood is dangerous regardless of the racial composition of the people who live there.

So how many people do you suppose will be shot in Chicago this weekend.
Does their race or political beliefs have anything to do with it.
This belief that conservative whites are a violent and deadly race of people is beyond ridiculous.

A number of sociological factors and variables do, but ... that is another thread.

[shrug] she gives historical examples. MHO: "conservative whites" are conservatives who happen to think they are white, not a "race of people".

There is a reason I put what is in italics: a very important part of the history of this country is shifting boundaries of who was accepted as white; at one point, those boundaries didn't include, for example, Jews, Irish people, or people from the Middle East or India.

It’s not a matter of mere belief.

A(nother) white conservative male just committed mass murder in my family’s neighborhood supermarket.

It would be one thing if this type of person was the lone bad apple whatever that you guys inevitably claim they are, before you start crying chicago negrocrime.

But as we well know, it’s an ingrained part of your culture.

I suppose that’s what results from centuries of the government backing up you guys’s crimes, all while telling you YOU’RE the victim. :problem:

Well, that’s not the so-called belief.

Conservatism is a choice, not a race. So is the choice to force your kids into white conservatism.

You do not have to live this way, the night-riding, government discriminating conservative whites you defend did not and do not have to live this way, and there is not ONE demographic in this country with the vigilante and state-sponsored violent history of conservative whites.

You guys are still carrying on that legacy, right now, you know it, you think it’s your natural right as everything else’s superiors.

If you’re in doubt, ask my relatives in Buffalo.

Plus, you guys still expect to get away with your criminal acts. If you’re in doubt about that one, just check your post history of excuse after excuse for the Jan. 6th confederates.

Or you can just see the story in the OP. That, too, is your choice, but it’s a lot easier to focus on something I said about conservative whites than pay attention to the actual topic.

This, too, is foundational to your white nationalism.

:?

False dilemma. Walk through either neighborhood as, and looking like a woman, as I do.

The more you try to tie yourself in knots to fashion yourself into a victim of something you read on the internet from an African American with a critique of your confederate way of life, the more you reveal yourself to actually be a victim of KKK/Citizens Council negro crime propaganda.
Some people are bad their race has nothing to do with why.
:? wow you’re starting to catch on, after a decade of reading my posts. :problem:
Unless of course you subscribe to the bad blood theory.
You’re misusing this term.

There’s no such thing as “bad blood theory.” :problem:

This has nothing whatsoever to do with “bad blood,” which itself is just more white-conservative ideology and historic government policy.

The phrase “bad blood” also recalls one of the worst episodes of conservative whites in government experimenting on African-American men.

’You’ve got bad blood’: The horror of the Tuskegee syphilis experiment - WP
In the fall of 1932, the fliers began appearing around Macon County, Ala., promising “colored people” special treatment for “bad blood.”
So it’s not surprising at all that this white-supremacist idea of “bad blood” is your only reference. White supremacism is a terrible educator.

So, to state it to you for probably the millionth time: white conservatism is a lifestyle choice, having nothing whatsoever to do with “blood” or “race.”

You and your peers are perfectly capable of bettering yourselves through rational choices. But you choose to stay trapped in this generations-old white-supremacist, white victimhood ideology. Sucks to be you guys, but better you than me.

This white supremacist ought to ask the people of East Buffalo who shop at Tops Market what neighborhood is safer for them.

Or the people of El Paso.

Or the people of Montreal.

Or the people who work in Planned Parenthood’s.

Or the people of Charleston.

Or the people of Charlottesville.

Or the people of Christchurch.

Or the people of Oslo.

Or the people of Ukraine.

Or the people of Santa Barbara.

Or the people of Pittsburg.

Or the people of Oak Creek Wisconsin.

They’re lethal, when they don’t even have to be. No other group of people has had generations and centuries of government violence, or the government propping up white vigilantism.

Not a one.

This is not a belief, it’s a historical fact that you’re not bright enough to argue with.

Pro tip: uncleriley chicago whattabbouttery is not a valid argument.

You’re not doing very well in avoiding the OP this way.
