I don't know why they are allowed phones in school, but they are.

Our grandson lived with us for a few years, from 13 to 15. The cell phone provider had an option which allowed parents to disable the kid's phone for certain hours. His was programmed to only allow calls to and from us and his mother. He didn't like it, but he didn't have the password. ;)

What I found interesting about the video is the lack of reaction from other students. It tells me she's done things like this before, and the other kids were waiting to record the show.

I think it would have been better for the officer and the vice-principal to pick her up, chair and all, and transport her to the office. She'd be forced to do what she was told, and three adults would not have their careers in jeopardy because the special snowflake wanted her phone.

The news reports that hundreds of students from that school staged a walk out in support of the police officer. That should tell you something of the character of the kids and how they were raised. Perhaps they know something of what happened that the rest of were not told.

Some students rally behind S.C. officer who yanked student from desk - Chicago Tribune Link for one of these stories.

I hope more facts come out in this matter.

Kind of comical - and typical - of the distortion of truth given by Glen Beck's "The Blaze" - where he said HUNDREDS of students staged a walkout. In reality, about 100 students gathered for around 10 minutes in the school atrium.

It was not a racial matter. It was a disciplinary matter that just went bad.

Typical liberal to find a detail that they can divert to and pick at like an old scabbed over bug bite.

I guess it eluded you that a "large" group of students supported the police officer. I realize that this would indicate decent upbringing and civility, which is counter to liberals need for disobedience and anarchy.

The cop should have tasered the brat. Maybe if she would have peed herself, she would think twice about causing problems again. It would also have made getting her out of her chair easier. But, you know how hind sight is, right?

No diverting. Just pointing out fact.

Sure, around 100 students is a large group and it does show support for the cop. No problem with that. The cop just overstepped his boundary and lost his control. As for tasing the girl, the cop and school system would get sued big time just as they will now - and they will pay.

Whatever. The sky is blue today, also.

Maybe you would care to share with us just how you reached this conclusion. If only quoting the media, shame on parrotting an unproven conclusion.

I guess I just don't get it. How can you vilify the cop? If it was my child I certainly wouldn't be mad at him. I'd be having her written him a letter apologizing for HER behavior, not his.

Guest 11-01-2015 04:17 PM

I agree with most here. The fault lies with the girl (and possibly her parents). Lot's of talk about lawsuits. I agree there will likely be a lawsuit but it will be from the officer for his unjustifiable dismissal.

The school cop who bodily threw a female teen ager across the classroom has been fired from his job.

Sure, the teen was disrespectful toward all concerned. But flipping her desk over and tossing her across the classroom was a criminal act. The teen's family is definitely going to win a very large cash settlement.

Why couldn't the cop merely have dragged the desk with the girl in it out of the classroom into the hallway - or the teacher have continued teaching the class and just not give attention to the girl on the phone?

Best idea would be not to allow students to have their cell phones in school. Some parents say they have to be able to be in touch with their child. When I was in school, if your parents needed you for an important reason, they would call the school and the school office would contact the student.

Anyhow, that cop is gone, unfortunately the school and police get sued, and it just may give other kids ideas of how to get their 15 minutes of fame AND rich.

The Police are trained to takedown one who resists, if Schools don't use Police, who do you think should protect our children…a politician?

I certainly wouldn't ask the current administration for protection.
