I’m sorry, no. I was raised to be respectful and committed a drug offense on school grounds. I was arrested, but that cop never did anything out of line. He explained to me what was happening, what would happen next, even put my handcuffs in front of me when I was in the back of the cop car. I actually did something

To me this is the larger issue. This cop is a POS and deserves to be arrested and in prison.

The world would be a far better place if no one ever resorted to violence unless they were protecting themselves or others from physical harm. Learning to deal with people who do not agree with you without hitting them is something every toddler should learn. Then we won’t have 200 pound toddlers having temper

There is the issue that a school administrator has escaped criticism for calling a cop to deal with a student who was just being silent. Not disruptive just silent. Perhaps the teacher wasn't equipped to deal with his behavior perhaps they were new. But an administrator is definitely equipped to have handled this

I think that it’s both, things got better after the civil rights movement and then got progressively worse until we come to where we are now, with the school to prison pipeline. It’s also more visible because there are cameras.

Was that 4real enough for you? I'm sure your white entitlement keeps you very happy. Any chance you could take the worthless scumbags who taught you to act like that with you to the river?

It isn’t acceptable in a society to do what the F you want to do whenever you want to. Otherwise, we’d all be throwing people around the room because they don’t listen to us.

If my kid ever

Jesus Christ, grow some empathy. I’ve worked with kids in the system, kids who are likely heading to juvie, who have addict parents or no parents or just bad parents, and those kids often act out. Sometimes they’re delightful angels, wanting to please and fit into society and determined to learn to read and write and

guess what...having a shitty day and not wanting to “deal” is a societal norm. and it manifests itself in different ways. stop demonizing a teenager.

STFU. Seriously. Right now, if you don’t want to continue coming across as a compassionless, crass, ignorant, despicable parody of a human being.

When I student thought way back in the 80’s I had a student who had just lost her father. She misbehaved FAR worse than this girl. (at least based on what we see in the video and people are claiming) We handled her with empathy and understanding while still maintaining discipline and the education environment. (By

I can also understand her perspective:

I love how white men that claim to live in fear of ‘government tyranny’ and believe that it is righteous to rebel against it are the first ones to insist that all black people should strictly obey every police officer like a submissive dog.

I’v taught for almost 20 years and I’ve never had a kid take a swing. You know why? I learned how to de-escalate a situation and let the kid save face. I learned when to not push kids on issues. I’ve learned when to let small infractions slide. I learned these things because I can never use force. It’s a shame police

I've had some irregular spotting, but the usual PMS factors (cramping and moodiness) for me aren't really there.

I am not the person you’re asking, but figured I could share my experience. I have had pretty erratic spotting in my first 2.5 months on Nexplanon. I have not had any full-blown periods. I have had the occasional crampy pang, but nothing like the excruciating cramping I get during my period when I’m not on birth

God I am so tired of so-called “good” guys not believing women until a man confirms it. It’s crazymaking bullshit.

I didn’t say she should.

why should she? if they didn’t want a public call out, perhaps they should have behaved better.
