Brutish attack on African-American teen by sorry "school resource officer" in South Carolina.  This officer has a history of using excessive force.  He has been fired by his boss, who offers a lame rationale in a failed effort to place a share of blame on the victim.

          Next time, just let the student be if you are in law enforcement and the punk disrespects the teacher, administrator, and refuses to obey the arriving police's instructions. If these are the new rules of the game - that a rude and disrespectful student can do as they please and destroy the educational learning environment - then too bad for the other parents and the community

When she hit the officer rather feebly, as the video shows, he had already started to manhandle her.

 

You can be depended on, Best, to crank up some kind of racist rationale for just about any kind of excessive force by law enforcement officers. You have descended to a new low in this case. The officer has been fired for cause.  His superiors finally have had enough of his brutish behavior.

But you and your racist ilk will probably regard their action as wimpish.  The true wimpishness is their past failure to deal properly with this cretinous cop.

Both the teacher and the school administrator who were in the room, as well as one of the students who filmed the altercation were interviewed by the police and said that they believed Fields "acted appropriately, and that he didn't use excessive force and he did what was necessary," Lott said.

 

Deputy Ben Fields has been dating an African-American woman for “quite some time,” Richard County Sheriff Leon Lott said.

“Would that have a bearing on his thought process?” Lott mused. “It may have, but I would think that would have effected it in a positive way, not a negative way."

 

Lott also said they’ve gotten their hands on a third video of Monday’s mayhem which shows the 18-year-old senior “hitting the school resource officer with her fists.”

The teen was charged with causing a disturbance in school and released to her parents, cops said

Not at all.  School resource officers often confront  resistance from stubborn students.  Dealing with such a problem is part of the reason they are there. The effective ones know how to deal with this kind of problem  without using excessive force.  That is why this case is so exceptional.  This maverick  officer failed to respond sensibly.  He was suspended initially, but within 24 hours he was fired. That kind of fast action strongly signals that his superiors see this as pretty much a cut-and-dried case of wrongdoing by the officer. Best and other disordered goobers probably would consider anything short of stabbing or shooting to be acceptable, so committed are they to defending the indefensible.

Outrageous, uncalled-for behavior by a few maverick law enforcement officers is one of the reasons so many people have lost respect for the profession.  We are in the era of the cell-phone video camera and the "body cam."  Instances like this absurdity in South Carolina will, more likely than not, be recorded, as this one was.  Too often, in the past, no such record has been created, leaving the matter as one of a cop's word versus the word of an arrested person.  Now, with cell phones everywhere, there will be less of that quandary and more documentation to show that cops can be and sometimes are, at fault.  Be on your best behavior at all times, Mr. John Law; you are being watched more than ever!

Thus proceeds from the shriveled, atrophied brain of Craptain Crudesader yet another nonsensical eructation!

The only goober I know is that peanut brain of yours inside your pin head. HE'S lucky the hood rat didn't shoot or stab him. He must have got her before she had a chance. Talk about defending the indefensible, that would be you defending the one that brought it on herself, most likely on purpose so she could get her money. He has plenty of folks defending him and asking why SHE was allowed to get away with her thuggish behavior. I hope he sues HER and the dept. if they do fire him.

Reverse your binoculars; you are looking through the wrong end.  I, among others, strongly object to the out-of-scale excessive force used by this particular maverick officer.  I, like his boss the sheriff, am decidedly "down" on him.  That by no means implies that I am "down on the police."

The student  failed to obey reasonable instructions and thus was in the wrong as far as that goes.. What you and her other deranged defenders do not seem to understand is that there are legitimate ways to deal with that kind of youthful stubbornness and resistance and there are decidedly WRONG ways to deal with  it. The officer chose the latter and now he is paying the price for it, and deservedly so.

 

The officer used excessive force.  He dealt with the situation in the WRONG way.  His boss, the sheriff agrees that he used improper procedure in dealing with the student. School Board representatives reached the same conclusion. You got a problem with the sheriff? You got a problem with the School Board?  One thing is certain, namely that you have a problem applying common sense and facts i, given your bizarre take on this situation.

Answer this question contenduh...how do you suggest he should have removed her from the desk?

Common sense is something you can't post about because you sure as heck don't understand what it is or have it. I have a problem with the hood rat herself, disrupting class and refusing to do what she was asked to do by her teachers and the others. I have a problem with people like you that will admit she's wrong, but don't want anything done about it. I have a problem with her "parent", that's parent singular, that raised her to think her hood rat behavior was OK, she's entitled, and if anyone confronted her about it, especially a white person, fight them, and if they fight back, bring hell down on them and ruin them. She wasn't a baby, she's 18, and there is no reason in the world for her to get away with such behavior. And then you stinking demoslops wonder why decent people are fed up with you. Really?

===================

People taking up for her, such as beternnun, don't think anything should have been done with her, and would have found fault with anything they had done. She knew what she was doing. What beternnun won't admit is she wanted the confrontation. Cha-ching $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

That is just play money in your fantasy cash register, Best.

 

I have nowhere suggested or implied that the girl used as a bowling ball by the brutish cop should not receive appropriate discipline. You claim that I "...don't think anything should have been done with her...."  In making such a spurious and easily disproven claim, you ignore what I posted above, namely, "The student  failed to obey reasonable instructions and thus was in the wrong as far as that goes. What you and her other deranged defenders do not seem to understand is that there are legitimate ways to deal with that kind of youthful stubbornness and resistance and there are decidedly WRONG ways to deal with  it. "

 

It is up to duly constituted authority to decide on appropriate discipline for the stubborn young woman.  It is also up to duly constituted authority, including perhaps the U.S. Department of Justice, to decide on appropriate action against the brutish, maverick cop.

You know what old man you are right the cop should had never been involved.  She should have been drug from the class by the assistant principal "at least this is the guy who did this in my old high school"  and had my butt lit up by the paddle he had laying on his desk.  Then I would have gone home and received double the licks from my dad and the same should have happened to her.  However in today's wacky world her parents would be down at the school screaming what gives you the right to tell my daughter what to do.  This not happening is why some kids think they can get away with anything.

The teacher in this link is obviously incompetent.  She apparently has received little or no instruction in how to handle this kind of situation. One must also wonder just what the school's protocol is for controlling this kind of behavior.  Is there no provision for requesting and obtaining help from outside the classroom?  There is more just plain wrong and just plain dumb stuff going on here than seems possible in a school classroom.  No one is learning anything in this situation; thus the classroom is non-functional as to its basic purpose.  Is there information somewhere as to how this matter was ultimately addressed?
