I have more of an issue with him picking her up and throwing her across the floor after he knocked her over in her chair. If he had simply tried to pull her from the desk and she turned over I don't think it would have been as big of a deal. However, once she turned over he picked her up and threw her across the floor. To me that is where it changes from simply trying to remove her from the room and into trying to inflict punishment and goes too far.

I agree and believe most are on this wavelength.

A simple armbar with a little twist would have sufficed.

 

He went to far

He'll probably lose his job

She'll sue, probably win(when she shouldn't)

No lesson learned by her because now she's getting her 15 minutes of fame

Probably because everyone involved now has a lawyer and the sheriff's department is caught between supporting and condemning the officer.

 

So here is another question. Why are the Feds investigating it?

 

Is it because he is white and she is black?

They are opening a civil right's investigation.

It only seems to matter when the cop has a history (tensing)

Does not matter when the perp has a history ( debouis)

For the love of God parents, teach your kids to respect authority. It's a shame there is a self created environment that people are so paranoid.

 

For what it's worth. This case does not shine favorably for the SRO of all of the cops versus perps (not victims) cases debated on here. Not sure he was right but once again a little cooperation and we are bored to death.

Peace out!

 

So let's say she is the most violent person in the history of the school. That then makes it okay for an SRO to come to the classroom and do her like he did? Because she has a history?

 

A little restraint by him, the guy with authority, and we are bored to death.

Parents teach their kids to respect authority and we save tax payers money by not needed SRO's?

Totally agree.

 

If she does what she was told, by 3 different adults, there would be no discussion.

 

She is just as much at fault as he is. The school should expel her. If she was disrespectful to the teacher and the principal, how do you think she's going to be now?

Come on now. We'll never have our tax dollars saved. That's impossible. They'll find something else to spend them on. :lol2:

Would folks be fine with a coach treating their kid like this?

Apples and oranges

 

Coach has the power to not play the player.

Teacher doesn't have the authority to not teach the student.

Isn't that exactly what they're doing when they make them leave the classroom??

Coach says leave the gym. Player says no and sits on the bleachers. Coach slams player and tosses him across the gym floor and detains the player.

 

That's cool right?

Was she breaking a school rule? Apparently she was. Break a rule, be prepared to accept the punishment or follow the rules.

 

Being asked to leave, probably being sent to the principals office, equates to missing one class.

 

A sport is an extra curricular activity. If the coach has a problem with a player, he has a broad range of ways to deal with it.

^So, yes, the teacher is refusing to teach the student for (at a minimum) that day.

Of course that's not cool.

 

Coach(apple) -vs- Officer(orange), no comparison can be made here.

 

A coach can kick the player off the team. If the player continuously returns to practices and disrupts the practice, the coach will end up calling the authorities to deal with it.

 

The authorities were called to deal with this girl. While he was wrong in his approach, he was within his rights(according to the expert on CNN) to handle it as he saw fit.

^So, yes, the teacher is refusing to teach the student for (at a minimum) that day.

 

If that student is disrupting class and breaking a school rule, the student made a decision and should have to deal with the consequences of that decision.

 

You can put it on the teacher, but the teacher has to look out for the best interest of the entire class.
