Hero cop saves room full of students

You think he could have maybe used his impressive 600lbs bench-pressing, girl-tossing strength and pushed her and her desk into the hallway and then had the school call her caretaker(s).

Or picked the desk up, with her still in it, and set it outside the classroom.

Yes I called the girl a b*tch, because she behaved like one. I then clarified later on many times that I wasn't saying they shared equal blame. So yeah, I can totally blame people for not getting it after I repeated that shit over and over. Calling a spade a spade doesn't mean I place equal parts blame. So we can nip that little excuse right now, especially when posters directly asked me what I meant and I explained.

Let me reiterate. She'd recently lost her mother and was put into foster care. At sixteen years old. I lost my mom at 16, and I speak from personal experience...it makes you f*cking angry. Sad. Confused. All of that shit. You're literally a ball of emotion. I was skipping school, I almost beat this one guy down because he started talking trash after he heard me tell my friends my mom had just died. She was not in a happy place.

So maybe she mouthed off. Maybe she talked back. But the officer who responded is capable of benching 600lbs because he power lifts in his off time. Was force necessary? Not in my opinion, but if he felt so, he could have used a lot less than he did.

So sure the girl got him called, but he was the adult. He was the police officer. He is the one who is supposed to act like a professional. Instead of asking, "What's wrong? Why are you acting like this?" He turns it into an MMA match and slams her around.

There's no excuse for his actions, and they far outweigh what she did in simply disrupting the classroom.

This is all fine and dandy and not a single word changes anything I've said about both sides being at fault.

If people want to argue she played no part in this fine, but otherwise we will literally be going round and round in circles.

How was she a "b****" exactly? Because simply saying "no" doesn't make her one. Unless you have little life experience.

And before you respond, keep in mind you had absolutely no idea what really happened yet your go to insult was b****. Sorry but that alone speaks to your character imo. And you only clarified several posts AFTER your excuses for the cop were disproved.

So do you feel a student this disruptive would just sit quietly in her desk while this happens? The same student willing to mouth off and ignore a cop who they call Officer Slam and whom they know can bench press 600 lbs and does MMA and all that shit?

That takes quite a bit of audacity(and stupidity) to do so I'm curious why you think she'd allow herself to be peacefully removed.

So he shouldn't have tried a non-violent solution because the student might have reacted? That's doesn't make much sense.

Er that isn't what I said at all. I merely asked the poster how well he thought his solution would work.

The way you worded it, you implied that it would have been useless and futile for the cop to even try in the first place.

Sorry, to me her behavior was b*tchy, you don't have to agree.

Also I clarified my posts, period. So your little excuse just doesn't fly.

Also I made no excuses. I pointed out what the damn sheriff said on the radio.

Except I said NOTHNG of the sort. I was responding to a quote of people talking about ways to remove her without brutalizing her. So that in no way means I'm saying "non violence is futile" by asking dude how well he thinks his solution would work.

I understand that wasn't your intention, but your wording came off that way, at least to me. No worries, you've now clarified.

This situation also brings to light a different issue. There is every chance the cop might do this again in a different location. People were joking about him working at McDonalds or something, but that is the issue: a lot of times when cops are fired for stuff like this they are not fired in a way that prevents them from getting hired at another department in a different city or state.

You might be thinking "another department would be crazy to hire him" but in certain states you have certain cities that very desperately need officers. I mean just look at the sheer fact this man was able to behave in a way to earn the nickname "Officer Slam" and yet it took something like this to get him fired.

regardless of how insolent the Teen may been acting there is no excuse for that act of excessive force. This isnt the officer carrying out a normal shift in the field where he's dealing with all kinds of rift raft. He's at a school portraying the role of teacher/mentor over all else. I am a staunch supporter in law enforcement but there is no scenario where this is acceptable.

I agree he should not have brutalized her, but you end up leaving me confused. How is he portraying the role of teacher/mentor? Or rather, why would that be in his job description?

because he was chosen to go to a school and represent his precinct as a mentor/teacher. From my experience, any time a police office is sent to a school for an assembly or display, their presence is there to spread awareness and acceptance of issues among the community instead of cracking down on them

Or cracking heads.

What was he supposed to do? Keep begging the ***** to get up?

Hopefully now the dickhead cop and the ghetto trash know their actions have consequences.

There's this thing called acceptable level of force.

Tossing a teenage girl across the room because she was chewing gum and refused to stand up is going miles beyond what was acceptable. What was he supposed to do? Not ****ing that.
