The student needed to be removed from the classroom.
What should the cop have done?
Tased her. Pepper spray in that room would nail too many others plus maybe the cop.
22 posts in and only now do I find the right question. Kudos to you!
What the cop SHOULD have done is anything that he would not have arrested anyone else for doing. That's what he should have done.
Had that same cop witnessed someone else doing what he did he may well have shot and killed them. Had that been done to him you KNOW he would have shot and killed the person doing it to him.
It's the double standard is what is getting the cops in trouble. One rule for me and another for thee.
It's also the same problem we're having with the IRS, Hillary Clinton, BLM, Harry Reid, and etc. yet for some reason if the hypocrite wears a badge then too many people on FR will blame the victim.
The problem is unaccountable government and unaccountable government agents. Law enforcement, IRS, etc. are all part of the problem and We The People are the solution.
Get another cop, raze her, use pepper spray, maybe anything other than risk breaking her neck, or concussing her, you know something - anything a bit more reasoned than what he did.
I saw the video, it was way over the top for a response to a verbal refusal.
