That woman slapping around her son for being an ass was hilarious. Good for her.

A mom sees a protest hijacked by militants and thieves tries to reclaim her son.

BTW he is wearing a mask. She reads him right...he has bad intentions.

I think the video serves a great purpose. It sends a message to other moms in the area telling them to take charge of their sons.

So...

We praise a mother for manhandling her son because (relatively) minor illegal behavior is unacceptable yet bemoan police for directly confronting major events?

That's pretty slanted.

Because an officer bitch slappin' this punk -- as opposed to taking him to jail -- would have been crucified even though the result is the same.

And yes, when confronted with illegal activity, an officer has MORE right to bitch slap a thug than his mother because a mother just cares about her son. An officer has to care about everybody.

Interesting take.

Well, since I never praised this mom I guess I can insist police not murder shackled prisoners?

On a serious note, police are never justified in slapping around people. Subdue and cuff... no?

If an officer can slap a kid around like this, get his attention, and NOT get him buried in The System -- with effective result of stopping the activity and waking up a potential thug -- isn't this a "win?"

Like they cared about Michael Brown, Eric Garner, Walter Scott, Freddie Gray, etc., etc.

Zeke calling anybody or anything "slanted." Now there's irony rearing it's ugly, zit-covered head.

If an officer had bitch slapped them earlier, said offenders may not have received the treatment they EARNED, later.

Good for her, indeed. But it made me cringe that the woman felt left with no other option in the face of this behavior by her child. If this lends itself at all to keeping him out of a pack of gangbangers then it's a couple of slaps well served. If it doesn't he's fucked, and so is anybody he guns down.

But, you know, you wouldn't want an actually trained and empowered law enforcement professional to do that...

Fucking idiot...

Yeah. I mean, why is what this mother did to her son any different from what the cops did to Freddie Gray? Get real, people!
