I think policing should be neither instructional nor judicial.

Make the arrest, don't attempt to teach nor judge.

this is my humble opinion my beleaguered friend.
I'm not certain what I espouse is "extreme."

For example, a popular board opinion is that an arrest, due to a slanted system, is de facto judging because no minority could ever, possibly, receive fair treatment in our criminal justice system.

If an officer can stop criminal behavior without an arrest? Using means similar to what our "heroic" mother has done? Potentially teaching a lesson prior to the formality of charges?

I'm not immediately perceiving a negative, unless you're willing to hold this kid's mother to the same standard of judgment (overbearing) due to her actions.

If cops doing such a thing is wrong, so is she.
