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.


You do not need to teach someone, or apply a certain rule upon them by instilling fear within them. Forcing someone to obey you by enforcing them or creating fear will not gain you respect. This does not create a good society whatsoever. If people no longer trust or respect those who are meant to 'serve and protect' than resentment towards police will surely grow.

Unless you want to create a society full of drones ruled by an iron first then sure, rule the people by fear. Attack the weak and enforce your power upon those beneath you. :|
