if they had charged the teenager with felony assault i might think it was a bit much. it is a misdemeanor. if you get angry and throw something at another person it is a crime. i doubt it was a crayola. i cant really see a use for those in high school.Am I the only one that thinks the charges for tossing a crayola a bit much? Throwing anything at a teacher is inappropriate, but like another poster stated I think this is a bit over the top.
