Not saying that he's in the right but you being deciding to be rebellious doesn't give you the right to disturb the class and not comply with the police.

What I would have done was ask if I was being arrested or detained. If the officer said no, I would have said that there was nothing they could then do to infringe upon my rights. Whether someone was disturbing the class or not, I am certain this inevitably caused a bigger disturbance then she ever caused. Just imagine what the students would have been thinking when they saw an adult, nay, a police officer acting that way. They would likely have been intimidated and shocked by this.

I have witnessed many disturbances in classes back when I was in high school. Never was it necessary for a student that was seated to be thrown around by authority. There is such a thing as, detention, suspension, calling the girls parents etc. This was outright unnecessary.

What the other students were probably thinking is that they better not act like little shits.
