Cop bodyslams girl student

During the conference, Lott frequently mentioned that while “none of this would have happened” if not for the teenage girl’s “disrespectful” actions, “what she did doesn’t justify what the deputy did.”

“She wasn’t a danger,” he added. “She was just non-compliant.”

That's some victim blaming added for those who still want to believe the cop was justified...

The girl lost her mother and grandmother before this.

As many have said, behavioral issues come from somewhere, and it's not solved by assaulting them.

that is really sad. Not everyone is lucky in life to have everything going happy. Losing a mother is one the most impactful moments in someone's life. Can't imagine a teen going through life parentless.

The teacher was a total ass.
 
Is it normal in America for schools to have police officers on site at all times as part of the staff?

I'm glad this guy was fired. What he did was ridiculous.
 
yup, I blame the teacher for failing to be a teacher.

back in my day they would confiscated our stuff and lock in a drawer, award detention.

if shit went down, then it would be suspension time and a call to the parents. (Like when I applied a Figure Four leg lock on another kid, snap, suspended for a week)

no cops were ever needed for such things.
Back in your day, the teachers also had more authority and the parents backed up the teacher within reason. There's a reason why schools nowadays need a third party (a social worker, education experts etc.) to solve problems.
 
Great news that he was fired. Hopefully he won't get another job as a cop; surprisingly (but not really surprisingly) in some of these police brutality cases we find they lost their previous job for related issues. He needs to be done, for good, in this type of work.

Score one for cameras. Otherwise he'd probably still have the job.

That's even more depressing on top of everything. In one of the articles posted earlier, the classmate who was arrested for speaking up mentioned the girl did not have anyone.

Firing the officer isn't sufficient. Dude deserves to be charged with assault, but I guess there's no point if convictions are rare.
 
Which is what makes white supremacy so horrifying. These aren't just people with no control over anything with these viewpoints. These are teachers, police, lawyers, judges...etc. People absolutely capable regardless of if they're aware of it or not of being very very biased against black people.

Yup this is why the reverse racism line is such bullshit. White people actually have the power to do damage when they're racist. The same can't be said about the opposite.
 
I had people today bring up today the usual "kids today are so different" and "her acting like that one day wouldn't have happened back in the day". They even brought up a story about a trash can being dumped on a teacher recently, and I was like "I could see that happening in the 90's.

And here's the thing, My Grandmother in grade school punched a teacher in the face. This was in the 1940's. Women back then had normal grade school classes and then went to homemaker classes to "learn how to be good wives and mothers". The homemaker teacher pissed off my teenage grandmother and she punched her in the face. My grandmother had a short temper lol.

It is where I live. Reason being because of the school shootings though. I think my town voted for an officer to be on campus at all times in case something like that goes down. No way in hell do they get called into a class for a kid being disruptive though.
 
Very odd that a cop was called to a class because a girl was using her phone. If I went to that school, I would have probably been arrested years ago.

Generally, in my experience, when a student is disrupting the class and absolutely refuses to stop or leave when asked by the teacher, the teacher calls someone from "administration" to come and take them away. I assume that they do that because there is someone at the office with non-violence training (likely the people that work with special needs students). Has the school provided a reason for why the special needs workers were not called, and the police were instead?

Yes, I guess so. The high school I went to had one. Never felt comfortable seeing a police walking around the school with a holstered gun. It never felt like having necessary unless the school was under direct threat, power outage, or weather situation where students needed to be sent home. There's more than enough faculty to handle a student. If the student is completely unruly or physically harming another student, the school administration can alert the police and go from there.

The other thing is ... I don't think minors have that many rights once they enter/leave school property. Kind of felt law enforcement was a complete contradiction to a school wanting to internally handle something over law enforcement.
 
11 pages more, and people have not learned.

He was actually fired? Legitimately shocked.
Only because he has a record of this shit I'm guessing.

Also, I wonder if the people all over social media talking about how she wasn't raised right and probably disrespected her parents feel now to know she recently lost her mom and is in foster care.
 
The cop grabs her and flips the desk over. Not really a bodyslam but obviously way overboard. The other kids were probably scared shitless.

It was the most related thread I could find.


Well, I will leave now, since my opinion on the matter could get me banned, since it doesn't fit this thread's agenda.
 
Wouldn't all that drive by passive aggressiveness class as shit posting? and therefore against site rules?

Bjorn create a thread on that liveleak story and let it run its own course, then you can discuss it as a separate issue

Sorry, but that doesn't make any sense. You believe this thread was the best place to share that link, but you won't post your thoughts on its relevance because you believe this thread has an agenda. Then why even post it here? What's the point?

You are right, it was a mistake.

It wasnt a mistake, it was intentional.

If you're going to purposely go that route, at least own it instead of throwing your hands up like, "WHAT DO YOU MEAN, IM NOT COMPARING IT!!"

At least #alllives, "She couldda stopped this!" "Teacher/cop might have been in danger" etc...stand by their words.

Man, cut this shit out.

You made a direct comparison. And I suppose your point was "but when it happens the other way around there's no outrage."

There's no outrage because the student involved will be held to account and we don't have a system that goes above and beyond defending students attacking teachers.

Dont wuss out with the "I can't say why I really want because I'll get banned". Just own it.
