This is how Democrats play the game. What? Didn't they teach you this in school? Oh, that's right. Democrats run the schools.

BRENTWOOD, Calif. - WARNING: Viewer discretion advised. This story has disturbing visual elements.
A woman had her scalp torn off by a Brentwood police dog after she shoplifted thousands of dollars from a nearby mall, video obtained by KTVU shows, raising serious questions about when and why K-9 units are deployed.
Talmika Bates, then 24, is seen in the video provided by her lawyers screaming and wailing in pain. The skin on top of her head was ripped off exposing blood and bone.
"Help me! The dog is biting me," she screams. "My whole brain is bleeding!"
The police officer in the video responds: "We're going to help you…but you shouldn't run from the police."
Bates talked about her painful recovery in an interview with KTVU on Wednesday.
"I really thought I was going to die," she said. "I really didn’t think that I was going to be able to tell this story and really explain to noboody. It’s just traumatizing. It's just sad."
She said she was taken directly to jail after doctors sewed her scalp back on at John Muir hospital in Walnut Creek. She said her hair still doesn't grow around her wounds.
"I feel ugly," she said. "I get miserable I get depressed. I'm not happy with myself. I don’t even feel cute."

That’s a shame.
Maybe she can shoplift some more cosmetics and hair products to make her feel cute again.
Her whole brain is bleeding! How much blood is that, 1 or 2 drops?
Yep. She’ll cash out, big time. Millionaire soon.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
No sympathy for her here.
Hope the dog is OK.
German Shepherds are not to be messed with. It’s sad to see what it did to her head, even if she instigated the scenario.
That was my thought EXACTLY.
She got off lucky. In the islamic world she’d lose a hand.

Sob! Such a poor, innocent victim.
“Talmika”...makes you go “hmmm”
Is Brentwood anywhere near Mt. Baldy?
I think she meant her “hole brane” - I could be wrong, but I doubt it. Benjamin Crump in 3,2,1...
They will probably put the dog down and fire the officer.
And she will get rich.
She’ll probably have enough to buy hair pieces and such to hide her ugly scars, but nothing on this earth will remove the ugly within her.
And perhaps a wise person would understand that running from the police is probably not a wise thing to do. But unwise decisions seem to be a common cultural denominator
Does Brentwood even have their own police force?
it looks like she had a lot of long, dreads, and weave, attached which made it easier for the dog to pull and tear at injuring her scalp. I guess that hairdo would stand up to category 5 wind speeds.
Hope they can mend her scalp.
If you’re going to use pork fat or the like to style your hair, best to add some pepper to it.
