Reply #20: So should I sue my old playground supervisor for damages?

[Systematic Chaos]

One day in the 3rd grade I was on recess and I said hello to this other kid. He said his name was Donald so I said "I can be Captain Kirk and you can be Donald Duck!" A simple, innocent joke with no malicious intent whatsoever. He went nuclear on me, knocked me down in the sandbox area and proceeded to pour hot sand into my pants. I was not a violent kid by any stretch and this upset me so much I just broke down and bawled. I found the playground monitor and all she told me to do was go to the bathroom and clean myself up. I had sand in my pants the rest of the day and Mr. Duck received no discipline at all even though I had been forcibly struck and had my clothes ruined for the balance of the school day.

No, I'm not permanently scarred by the incident but I will always remember it for the sheer injustice. That "monitor" should have been relieved of a job IMO.
