And what about the students in inner city schools who DON'T assault their teachers?

Yup any decent teacher would leave at the first opportunity.

Teachers Leave Schools with Inflow of Black Students - Softpedia

Of course academics place the blame on teachers being racist, that's why they leave. Problem is that Black teachers leave too.

I'm sorry folks aren't going to risk their safety because not all kids will assault them.

So is the talking point this week that teachers are lazy good for nothings that don't want to teach or students are out of control and don't want to learn?

Not in my school. We had an unruly student get out of hand in our school and our shop teacher kicked the living crap out of the kid. The father showed up to the school, thanked the shop teacher and then took the kid home where he beat the living crap out of him. That kid, was quiet and respectful in school after that.

that's how it used to be.

today, the shop teacher would be fired and the school would be sued.
