Well is it California...
But if the other students didn't see a problem, wouldn't think it was too bad.

You are right! But we don't know if this girl is of that type. For all we know she could have been one of those that happen to be a good student caught in a rare situation.

It's almost (not quite) but almost impossible to enforce a no cell/electronics policy, though many school districts do have them in place. The district we're in, if a phone/electronic is seen in use, while in class, the teacher can confiscate it, but truthfully - it's such a huge waste of time to try to monitor AND also get some actual teaching done. Making teachers (in effect) parents/babysitters/police and monitors, not to mention over-crowding and budget restrictions, all take away from actual teaching. Some battles, ya just have to pick wisely. Sad, but true.

Perhaps cell phone jamming devices are in order; although, that may be cost prohibitive. I know those things work well, as my wife had surgery a few weeks ago and the hospital had a "no cell phone" zone, in which, the signal was jammed. Despite my best efforts, I could not get a signal...even at the windows.
Nonetheless, even if it is time consuming to confiscate the cell phones, then detentions and suspensions could be handed down...that may curb the problem.

It's also enabling the girl to NOT deal with her mistake.
She should have been paying attention.

That is true, but all the other students told the police, they were comfortable with the situation and the teacher was stable. Sucks how the teacher had to take a leave break for the police being called. Teachers are in such short supply and go through a lot already, and kids figuring out parents and teachers are powerless over them, causes real problems with the future of America, right?

Jon Carroll of the S.F. Chronicle (newspaper) coined the term "grandstanding self-righteousness" for this sort of idiocy. (The idiocy is on the student's part, let me hasten to add.)
It's getting worse, not better; and I think the architects of the NWO encourage it, to be honest. It fits their agenda, for whatever reason. I think it's to force minor authority into toeing the line (not "towing the line," by the way--look it up.) That is, to keep them terrorized into PC-ness, not only by their superiors, and students' parents, and their peers, but even by the kids themselves. Terrifies them into conformity; forces them to "get their minds right," to turn a phrase. Seems the NWO is not inclined to tolerate non-conformity.
And the thing is--I almost don't care anymore. I'm starting to think this country deserves what's coming. A lot of you look around and you think, hey--people are waking up. No. They're not. They're waking up to the things that affect them personally, yeh, OK. And they're raising some hell about those things; small-scale, selfish things. But not the big stuff. They're not interested in the big stuff. All-in-all, life is too good in this country. And it will continue to be--right up to the point that they all realize they've been enslaved while they were crapping around on their iPhones. It's already too late: the deed is already done.
Damn I'm depressed....

lol. That is awesome… Thor. Ha
We had a bus driver that would slam on his brakes if you stood up.
But then again, when I was in school, each teacher and bus driver had a paddle, and used it when necessary.
This girl needs a swift kick in the ass.
