We're the Only Ones Not Threatened Enough

"I specifically asked the officer, 'did he threaten you?' She said no. I said, 'did he threaten any other child?' And she said no.
So what better reason to slap the cuffs on a child?

I wonder what this brave "Only One" would be prepared to do against someone who was threatening her, along with the children she is paid to protect?

His arrest wasn't because he was disrupting an already noisy class. He was arrested because (1) he failed to obey The Only One, instantly, without question, and without lifing a finger, and (2) his arrest taught a lesson to the other impressionable young skulls-full-of-mush that The Only Ones are to be instantly obeyed regardless of how improper, illegal, or outside of policy, procedure, and regulation their actions may be.

He said, she said, they said. The mother speaks of a line needing to be drawn... It already has been, a long time ago.

And 20 years ago we had our shotguns and shells in our cars, on school property, no less, that we used to hunt with after school was let out for the day.....

"The bottom line he's in phys ed. And all the kids are making noise yelling, screaming and talking and he gets singled out for going 'la-la-la?'" Michael Moody, Gunnar's father, said.

Hell, if babbling meaningless sounds was all it took to handcuff someone, most of Congress would be behind bars.

After establishing the facts, as agreed to by the officer, I would have beat her ass to the ground and carried her back into that classroom and told the children, "this is the proper response to that shit", then I would have gone to the cop shop so wouldn't have far to look for more trouble.

I am completely out of patience. They only need to trespass me or mine in like manner to confirm that.

Wait, wait. There is a campus "only one" for middle schoolers? And said "only one" is there to keep control of students (as opposed to being there purely as an anti-colombine measure)? Please tell me why there isn't rioting in the streets?
