you are forgetting the context in which this is happening, the guys that perpetrated the colombine masacre were 17 and 18, that means one of them was a kid, people in the US are getting paraniod about any type of crisis going on in a school, the girl here should have done what the officer told her, schools are becoming like airports in US, anything can scalate quickly since there are other inocent children around, so no one is accepting any tipe of rebelilous behaviour. Note that I think that the officer could have manage the situation better, but the girl is not a victim, she created a situation in wich the teacher was scare enough to call the police, and the policeman went to a school, bad combination to start not doing what you are told.

So because there have been cases where "kids" have done some horrible things that justifies these actions? Am I saying the girl was in the right....not at all....BUT this situation was handled VERY poorly. No way that was called for in any form to get a misbehaving student out of the class room. I have seen fights broken up in high school with less force. So to first put the arm around her neck(chokehold style), then flip her over IN THE DESK then snatch her out of the desk and fling her across the room like a rag doll is unacceptable for an office of the law. This may have been necessary in other instances but not in this one...not at all. 

"No way that was called for in any form to get a misbehaving student out of the class room."

You dont know, the video is not show what happen before. And about the Justification, I know is not justified, but is like this, you know you should not get robbed on the street, but if you know there is a blakcout and if the middle of the night, you know that the context it not appropiate to go outside show off your new cell phone , watch or what ever. After 911, US very paraniod in their airports, and the reason is the context, in the US the context exists, why would you make the teacher call the police and then refuce to comply ? the officer made a bad decision but is not like there was no reaso, not that a reason is not a justification, but is reason.
