A teacher from California has reportedly been terminated from the school after he was caught on camera berating a young student for wearing a Blue Lives Matter face mask.

13-year-old Lucas Lillar was yelled at and scolded by the substitute teacher in front of the entire class for selecting the unique face mask at a middle school in Sacramento.

After scolding the teenage student, the teacher went on to boldly claim that the flag on the mask was definitely not the American flag but in fact the new Confederate flag and so it was not acceptable.

The highly dramatic incident and the verbal altercation were filmed on camera by a number of other students in the classroom who opted to record secretly via their cell phones.

But Lucas says that he only wore the mask because he comes from a family background of police officers where his parents are admitted in the police force.

The striking and controversial incident comes at a time when nearly 39 police officers were injured and more than 14 were killed as of this year, till date.

Meanwhile, reports claim that the Fraternal Order of Police has gone on to argue about how violence is being directed at law enforcement officers and the rates are alarmingly high.

On the other hand, the FOP President has gone on to speak about how the great rise in violence is a serious issue that needs immediate attention right now before things get out of hand.

“It needs to be addressed right now by all members of the government as well as citizens because if not, we will all be suffering from its consequences, in case they go unaddressed”- he added.
