A Georgia middle school teacher's bizarre rant against students was videotaped by a student on Thursday.
The teacher, who is unidentified, was recorded making aggressive statements to Dacula Middle School students. A student surreptitiously filmed the video below their desk.
"Y'all act weird," the teacher was heard saying in the video. "Joking and laughing, and it's all funny. But y'all keep that same energy and see me on the street."
"Keep that same energy. Cause y'all all tough," the teacher continued.

It is unclear what triggered the outburst or if students were misbehaving before the video began.
"I'm sorry I'm a little different. Maybe I'm too hood, I don't know," the teacher added. "But right now, I don't want y'all talking to me."
Local mother Amanda Atkinson said that her son asked to use the bathroom shortly before the video began recording.
"My heart hurts watching. She needs to be held accountable," the mom wrote on Facebook. "We cannot keep letting this disgusting behavior by grown ups go, and expect that children won’t act out because of it."
