A black community activist and a white Fox host ended up in a screaming match after the host blamed 'black culture' for cops attacking school girls.
During a FOX Faceoff segment between activist Quanell X and host Angela Box, the debate quickly became heated as they discussed the South Carolina officer who threw a 16-year-old schoolgirl across a classroom during a violent arrest.
Box said she did not think Officer Ben Fields, who was fired last Wednesday, should have lost his job over the incident.
She then said it was time to start addressing the root causes of 'all this', blaming it on 'black culture'.

The debate quickly became heated as they discussed the South Carolina officer who threw a 16-year-old disruptive schoolgirl across a classroom during a violent arrest
Box said she did not think Officer Ben Fields (pictured throwing the girl to the floor), who was fired last Wednesday, should have lost his job over the incident
Box is seen at the start of Fox 26 Houston's segment saying Fields 'lost his job for doing his job by subduing an unruly student in a classroom', and insists that the girl was 'no innocent little lamb'.
The veteran resource officer was caught on video flipping the disruptive student out of her desk and tossing her across the floor.
'When you have a student disrupting the class making life hell for the teachers and other students it is impossible for other students to learn,' she said.
'I do agree the cop went too far but I don’t think he should have lost his job over it.
'I think it’s high time we start addressing the root causes of all this: the disrespect of teachers, this Black Lives Matter movement, this perpetual chip on your shoulder against everybody that’s not like yourself. It’s got to stop. We’ve got to address the culture.'
Quanell X responded by saying that the cop was justified in being terminated and that Fields should be indicted for 'assaulting that child'.
Box said: 'I think it’s high time we start addressing the root causes of all this: the disrespect of teachers, this black lives matter movement, this perpetual chip on your shoulder against everybody that’s not like yourself. It’s got to stop. We’ve got to address the culture'
Quanell responded: 'Now, for you to say that we need to deal with the culture of black kids in schools, let’s deal with the culture of these crazy fanatic white boys who go in schools with guns and shoot and kill everybody'
'Ms. Box, nobody supports a disruptive student in a classroom because it stops other kids from learning,' he said.
'But what I do have a problem with is, men should never handle a woman like the way that cop handled that little girl, to turn that desk over the way he did, grab her around her neck, then grabbed that child and threw her across the room, that is unbecoming of a man with decent character and conduct.
'That’s unbecoming of a conduct of a police officer. They should have got a school counselor, a therapist on campus with a school counselor and a mental health officer to come to the school to deal with that child.
'We don’t know what was going on with that kid. But no kid should be disruptive of their learning environment.
'Now, for you to say that we need to deal with the culture of black kids in schools, let’s deal with the culture of these crazy fanatic white boys who go in schools with guns and shoot and kill everybody.'
Box begins reacting as the talk starts getting heated before he tells her to let him finish.
'Columbine, killing the kids at the elementary schools, the shootings in other cities across America have all been crazy little white boys shooting up innocent people. So let’s study that culture,' he said.
She fires back claiming that the black community has been run by Democrats for the last 60 years which has 'destroyed black family, destroyed initiative, destroyed self worth.'
'You have kids out there shooting each other up. It’s not just white kids, black kids shoot each other all the time,' she said.
‘But wait a minute, wait a minute,’ Quanell X interjects. ‘You said address the black culture…’
Quanell X said the officer's termination was justified and he should be indicted for 'assaulting that child' (pictured)
A heated Box interrupts, shouting: ‘No, address the black culture saying the perpetual chip on your shoulder, blame whitey.'
Quanell, also very heated at this point, tells her ‘show some manners’ and ‘show some respect’ to allow him to finish without interrupting him.
'Don’t tell me a damn thing about the black culture and kids in schools when it’s white boys that goes in schools and murder all kinds of innocent people,' he shouted.
'Don’t tell me that. We need to study these fanatic white boys.’
Box told him: ‘When you go into the inner city and start teaching there, you let me know and then you can have something to say about it.'
Box is a third grade teacher-turned-pundit, who resigned from her teaching job in Texas last year after wishing publicly that President Barack Obama would die from Ebola, according to Raw Story.
‘Ma’am I went to inner city schools - my children have,' Quanell X exclaimed, before Box fired back, 'And I taught there.'
Quanell X quipped: ‘And guess what, at the end of the day, there’s wolves in sheep clothing every day teaching in black schools.'
Box said, ‘Let me tell you something, how dare you say that to me.'
'It’s the truth when it comes to you,' he said before the heated debate came to an end.
Video of the debate was posted to Facebook and has since been viewed more than 90,000 times.
