Jason Seaman saving the world

| May 26, 2018

The Chicago Tribune reports that Jason Seaman, a 29-year-old science teacher disarmed a gunman at Noblesville West Middle School in Noblesville, Ind.;

Seventh-grader Ethan Stonebreaker told The Associated Press that when the alleged gunman, also a student at the school, entered the classroom and opened fire, “Our science teacher immediately ran at him, swatted a gun out of his hand and tackled him to the ground. If it weren’t for him, more of us would have been injured for sure.”

Seaman’s mother, Kristi, posted on Facebook on Friday afternoon that her son was shot three times while intervening with the shooting; in the abdomen, hip and forearm but was “doing well” after surgery.

Seaman released a statement through Indianapolis’ WTHR employee Jim Johnston on Twitter.

“First of all, thank you to the first responders from Noblesville and Fishers for their immediate action and care. I want to let everyone know that I was injured but am doing great. To all the students, you are all wonderful and I thank you for your support. You are the reason I teach,” the statement read.

Selfless and brave, but a pity he couldn’t simply have shot the little bastard down where he stood.

Outstanding. The word hero is too often used to describe individuals and acts that are not at all heroic. This man is a hero.

More so as he was on the wrong end of the balance of forse equation.

Why is he posing with Hillary Clinton?

AW1Ed

Hillary is a slimy, scaled, cold blooded, belly crawling rodent eater.

He’s merely holding a snake.

She is the viper type, cranky and poisonous.

Hero teacher who bravely stopped Indiana school shooter gets praise from White House

Fox News Link

President Trump tweeted his thanks to the science teacher who bravely sprang into action during a shooting at an Indiana middle school no Friday.

Jason Seaman, 29, a seventh-grade science teacher at Noblesville West Middle School was credited with knocking a weapon out of the gunman’s hand.

“Thanks to very brave Teacher & Hero Jason Seaman of Noblesville, Indiana, for his heroic act in saving so many precious young lives. His quick and automatic action is being talked about all over the world!”

Heroic indeed. Anyone willing to take on one of these little cowardly shits while unarmed has my vote for teacher of the year. So few people run to the sound of the guns.

You don’t often see the words “science teacher”
without some reference to climate change.
Nice change up.

In this particular case, I don’t care if he is a Bern-out Warmist. (Grin)

Kudos to a hero.

Definitely a hero. A big boy too, as the article states, he played for the SIU Salukis and was a standout playing high school football. He’s from Mahomet, Illinois, a short 20 to 30 minutes from where we live.

Damned well done Mr.Seaman. If only more teachers were like you.

Just curious as to why the authorities have not released the ID of the little turd who did this, as well as where he got the weapons, etc. I don’t think it is because he is a minor because attempted murder usually tosses out the minor protection under the law. I could be wrong.

On the other hand, I would be okay with him being charged, tried, convicted and sentenced, along with whomever may have aided and abetted him in any way, and never have the names proclaimed or printed. No 15 minutes of fame, no Facebook likes, nothing. No one ever would know the little cum stain ever lived. Were it up to me that is. YMMV

In Indiana, the juvenile court may not waive jurisdiction if the accused is under 14. If the offender is at least 14 but under 16, the juvenile court may, but is not required, to waive jurisdiction unless the accused has a prior felony or non-traffic misdemeanor conviction, in which case a waiver of jurisdiction is mandatory.

TL;DR: The kid is probably too young to be handed over to adult court jurisdiction according to Indiana law.

“too young”

Don’t care. He needs to end up at the Peanut Farm in Putnamville where his “education” will be continued.

ANY vermin, no matter the age, if its old enough to attack and kill other kids, is old enough to stand the full magilla! imho throw the little bastard to the wolves!

Good work Mr. Seaman. Doubt he’s going to have anyone talk back to him in the future.

With the Pres giving him praise, he should be giving him a presidential medal of freedom. We need to raise heroes like this and not the murderous turds that shoot up schools.
