Still how can you condone the violence especially towards a teenage girl?

Gotta get their stories straight, Rajoo.

The school is 60% black, this cop has been assigned there for 6-7 years, so a simple racial prejudice tag will not do. Methinks the girl gave the cop lip and he lost it.

Nope. Take note BTW, none of my comments (so far) have had anything approaching the interpersonally pissy tone of superiority which spews forth from your festering piehole with such apparent ease.

The blonde and I were actually watching the CNN news together this morning and I heard her comment half under her breath, "If little miss had pulled this shit in a black teacher's classroom at Calhoun back in the day, it woulda been her ass...and no cop required."

I don't think I'm the one making the racial thing out of it. That was the three black community spokesmen expressing their righteous outrage on CNN this morning with no more historically accurate information than you or I have.

I've been out of town and haven't bothered with anything but a quick skim. That said, if an ongoing chain of authority asked her to leave the room and -- up to law enforcement -- she failed to comply?

1. Then physical removal is fine with me.
2. We'll sort everything out once you're isolated.

I'm not sure he lost anything. In his job at the school district, he has the same authority as a street cop. When a street cop tells you to move and you don't, it's not the cop who's ass is going to be thrown in the back seat and charged with disorderly conduct. The school personnel are not going to be doing take-down interventions like they used to back in the day, but cops are not hindered by such restictions, and I'm not sure they should be.

BTW - here in Illinois, in an alternative school setting, I believe staff are still trained in how to take-down a non-compliant student.

In with you on this one Zeke. Yikes...

Except maybe that one. (Your lack of self-awareness is extraordinary.)

You two appear to be a perfect match.

I don't think I'm the one making the racial thing out of it. That was the three black community spokesmen expressing their righteous outrage on CNN this morning with no more historically accurate information than you or I have.

Did they at any time attribute racial motives to the incident? Did they even mention race? Or is it sufficient that they, being black, object to the treatment of a child who also happens to be black. Is their shared race the only possible reason for that? Is it even the most likely one?

Your reaction begs the question as to what your own motives and sentiments might be, Ike.

Just sayin'

The whole incident is on several smartphones, John. Not just the 30 seconds of brutality. We will be seeing the whole incident before too long. You want to jump to the conclusion that the child was an innocent victim of the out of control pig.

I'm jumping to the conclusion that a cop isn't called into a classroom unless a kid is being beligerently defiant. We shall see, shant we.

Physical removal is fine with me too. Throwing her and her desk around the room isn't.

It's why I said "so far" immediately prior to my personal utterance. (Your lack of reading comprehension is extraordinary.)
