Two questions: 1. Did the administrator ask the SRO to arrest her? 2. Does the SRO have that ability? i read that she went to the PD, so I am assuming that at least question 1 is a yes.

High. Last time a cop threw me to the ground was the last time I felt safe around cops. This girls about to make some bank from the incident. I'd say the odds are pretty high.

Take that how you want. Either way, your logic here is very much akin to the logic of Martial law and the police state.

BS

My logic is parents disciplining their children.

More of it needs to be done

I was taught to only respect those who earn it. Should I reproduce, I'll pass on that same MO to my offspring. Sure, you won't be liked by everyone, but at least you can say you have a pair of balls at the end of the day and that you always stood for what you felt was right. Why placate people because of made up titles and roles? So you don't get slammed to the ground? Seriously?

Kids have no respect for authority, I'm sure parents teach these kids that it's ok.

In the military, if you are disrespectful to any higher authority you will be punished accordingly.

In the real world, you get 15 minutes of fame and invited to TV shows and possibly Dancing With the Stars. That's how fuked up this world really is.

I would like to know these answers as well.

Seems that a lot of people here and in the media have been ripping this guy to shreds, the argument being that this is no way to treat someone, that is way far too excessive, and that other measures should have been taken. The only thing lacking in this position is actually providing an example of a specific measure that could have been taken outside of force to solve this issue.

So a teacher has a distracting student who will not stop distracting when asked. The process is then repeated by the administrator and finally by the officer. At this point in the ordeal, what else is to be done? Seems there are only three options:

1. Call parents/guardians to see what effect that might have. If none available, then one of the following two options must be taken (no exceptions).

Either

2. Cancel the class and have students leave.

Or

3. Have the school officer take the student into custody (although an arrest would not have to be made).

A lot of unanswered questions here concerning the administration and the legitimacy of the officer's involvement. I'll have to wait to see them answered before making a final judgment on the appropriateness of his and the administration's actions.

I knew he'd be fired regardless. The school system wasn't about to take the heat for employing a "racist," since this has become a racial issue for some ridiculous reason and since being a "racist" is the worst thing you can possibly be in our society.

I'm not going to pretend like the force involved in this ordeal was necessarily unwarranted on its own. Perhaps it was, but we don't know yet for sure. And at what point do you allow a single student to continue to disrupt the entire education process when words and threats no longer work? Was she supposed to just sit in the class for the rest of her life while her classmates and the teacher went elsewhere?

No and no.

I knew our current culture of "crying racism" had jumped the shark when I heard a caller tell Tony Basilio on air a few years back that, and I quote, "that's racist towards women."

most likely since it was in a school and involved a minor - in this case though the stupid cop should have called for some back up --- you know like how 5 cops cars all show up at a routine traffic stop

Why are the FBI and DOJ investigating this? Good lord, do they have to stick their damn nose into everything? Can't local authorities handle this?

That is pretty dumb. Seems fairly cut and dry to me. Deputy Dog displays a pattern of behavior involving premature escalation to violence, fire him and move on. Which they did, so that's that. Of course, the drama will continue in the form of the inevitable lawsuit(where the girl will win our tax dollars- thanks deputy!), but surely the FBI has more important things to be doing than this.
