All of us want a non-violent end to everything.  But that is NOT the reality we live in.  Sometimes violence happen because people provoke it such as this student.  The cop tried escorting her by the arm.  The more she pushed (resisted), the more the cop had to push back.  Plain and simple.  She started the violence by resisting.  Go ask her why it ended that way.

If a non-violent situation has to result in a violent outcome then we as parents need to change that situation.  Why as a parent would I accept such a reality since I have the means to stand up and change it.  You are right, violence does happen just like this situation and as a parent I would make sure that never happen again.

What you are saying does not make sense to me. Its as if you are saying this is the world we live in so just accept it.  As a parent it would be my duty to make sure this cop and no other cop ever enter another high school without being properly trained to handle such situation.  There is never a case where a cop should be allowed to use such force in a non-violent situation and the reality is that we as a people can make sure such results never happen.  Why as a parent would I want my tax dollars to support this type of police brutality in my school district.  Never!!  

You can believe the next PTA and school board meeting we will be discussing this issue and as a parent I will make sure this outcome never occurs in the schools my 3 kids attend.

At BOLDED:  Maybe if someone asked the girl why she was behaving the way she was in the first place then we would not have to ask her about the results. You do know cops have handled non-violent arrest a hell of a lot better than this on many occasions because we as a people have raised awareness of such situations and did not stand for it.  Maybe this day and age people just accept crap and say this is the world we live in so just accept it.
