[Deleted member 39678]

Then there's this...
Trial is set for January in the case of an expelled student who claims Fields targeted blacks and falsely accused him of being a gang member in 2013.

Thanks I saw that. I did mention that the upcoming case doesn't appear to involve any violence on Deputy Field's part.

What does that have to do with flipping her on her head?

I'm on my phone. Can someone please upload a gif format of the flip. Thanks

I'm guessing you went to a private school?

Wrong. Public School. Different era.

Of course he was a bit rough and it does bother me. But I also understand that he was trying to remove her from the classroom, as requested by the principal.

She was way out of line to defy the teacher, the administrator and the cop. She was the one who forced the issue. Why didn't she just let the teacher have her phone until class was over? What is the big deal about that?

Violence begets more violence. The girl was sitting. The kid behind her could have gotten hurt as well. So clear the class before the rodeo next time.

He simply terrorized those kids just now. Now they will be more likely to not trust the cops either when they grow up. Jmo.

If there's evidence it shouldn't be a problem. If there's a lack of evidence then plaintiff's will lose. That's probably what happened in Deputy Field's case. JMO

Um...not true. There is often tons of evidence but many people are more likely to accept the word of a cop over a citizen. They give cops the benefit of the doubt. Also prosecutors are in bed with the police so give half arse prosecutions.

Why do you think all these high profile cases involving police brutality involve special prosecutors and grand juries?

It just boggles my mind not one kid in your school was suspended. That's got to be some kind of record. Did your school or school district win any Best Behaved awards?

 

[sonjay]

Excuse me?
Please Do not confuse me with other posters or claim I said something I did not.

Sorry, you're right, it's someone else who is sure the cop was attempting to decapitate her and almost paralyzed her.

For example, look at this thread. A lot of people here would say the police officer did nothing wrong and the case would be dismissed.

Sorry, I say we will have to agree to disagree on this point.

Thanks BSneakers for the upload. Maybe if this was someones granddaughter ;They will feel differently about the handling of the situation. He didn't even clear the room.

Reminds me of an incident I witnessed at a store chain once. A young girl (maybe 9?) was standing up in the cart and her mother told her to "sit down" and when the child defied her, she jerked the cart so that the child fell backwards and slammed her head onto the hard floor.

I guess since the child didn't listen, she deserved for her head to be split open.

I'm not making excuses for this young woman, but again... I think if we can try and find "reasoning" behind a woman driving her car into a crowd of innocent people (medical emergency, mental illness, etc...), killing and injuring many, then why can't we also try and look into the "reasoning" for this young woman's behavior?

I mean, shouldn't we be wondering why she is acting out? Questioning if something is going on at home? Or even in school??

 

[Sulamith]

Then don't behave like this entitled disruptive defiant student.

She started it. She could have complied at any point. She defied the teacher, the assistant principal, and the principal, so they called LE, who ended it. He did what needed to be done to remove a defiant and disruptive student from the classroom.

". . . a defiant and disruptive student" How? By not getting off of her phone? LOL! Off to watch The Stepford Wives. Comply or else!

Except most people aren't related to people who disobey teachers. Apparently.

If that was my granddaughter, she'd be in more trouble at home with her mom and dad than whatever trouble she's in at school.

But too many of the parents today seem to think that school doesn't matter and that defiant and disruptive behavior at school is acceptable. I wonder if this girl learned from her parents, or parent, that this kind of behavior is acceptable?

He was a bit rough for a reason. The student wouldn't move from the desk leaving him little choice but to physically remove her. Her flaying around trying to hit him contributed to her being taken down to the floor.

Like I said up thread, the student is 100% responsible. She turned a minor situation into something else. JMO

No violence, just racism.

I will typically support the men in blue but not when they are wrong. Officer Fields man-handled that sixteen year old girl. She was not a threat to him. There has to be a better way.

Look at the video. I'm surprised her leg isn't broken. But let's whoop her some more and invite the cop to Thanksgiving dinner. Btw. The girl weighs about 125lbs and she couldn't pose a threat in a desk to warrant that maneuver.

 

[bluesneakers]

I was just waiting for him to say " SHE'S GOT A GUN".
Before that extreme take down. Jmo

Yeah. I don't think he had reason to fear for his safety.

Our class valedictorian did win a nobel prize. Obviously it wasn't me.

You really think that staying off the phone during class is equivalent to being a Stepford Wife? Seriously?

Whatever happened to plain old everyday courtesy and civility? If this girl had simply behaved in school, none of this would have happened. Her behavior was disrespectful not only to the teacher and the principal, but to every one of her classmates. Her desire to be disruptive and defient is not more important than their education. Why should any student be permitted to disrupt class? Especially just because they want to yak on the phone. Yakking on the phone during class is not a civil right, and interfering with the education of all the other students in her class is exceedingly disrespectful of all of them.

Respecting the rights of your fellow students to get an education is hardly being a Stepford Wife.
