Many teachers when I was at school were asses.
I had a couple that insisted that I write with my right hand - seriously - with the slipper if I didn't and this was in the early 70's. That is until my parents found out and threatened to clobber them.
I also remember some who would punish you for contradicting them, even when they were blatantly wrong.
There was also several racist teachers at my secondary school who would always round on the black kids.
We had to pull the metal work teacher off one of our classmates after he went for the 14 year old lad with a heavy metal bar in hand for a bit of playground lip. Of course nothing happened to the brute, even though the lad ended up in the nurses office with cuts. He even became a local councilor.
