Just a wild guess by how the father reacted, but the over-reaction by the child seems to indicate that he isn’t getting disciplined at home. Stop, stop, don’t you know what stop means? Who says that to an authority figure?
He did have the choking accusation ready, thanks to all the race-baiting industry, although the officer’s hand was only on the nape of his neck.
Some idiot said something about him being hungry. Give me a break! There’s a huge difference between being hungry and starving to death. If he’s not being fed at home, why is he so plump?
I’m actually shocked he has a father in the home. I wonder if that is his father or mom’s latest boyfriend.
The article also said the police knew these kids already so I can see these kids gonna be trouble in the future.
I don’t know.
When I was very young my dad flat out told me that if I ever ran afoul of the law, I should not waste my “one call” on them.
No one was coming for me and I would have sit there and suck up the fruits of my crime, myself.
I was never completely sure if he actually meant that, literally, but I NEVER even remotely considered “testing” them.
I was a well behaved, respectful and law abiding kid.
Never got in trouble and attribute that his warning.
In dealing with police, “Yes sir” and “No sir” is all I would have ever said.
Not “Stop”.
I reckon I had a really crazy upbringing, compared to what passes for “parenting”, now.
