In a video that is now going viral, a 12-year-old boy detained by Sacramento police is handcuffed with a bag placed over his head.

Police say they put a mask on the boy after he spit at an officer several times....

The family's attorney says officers should have shown some leniency, given the child is just 12-years-old.

The family says they may file a lawsuit and are asking for an apology....

So somehow this was considered "news" thousands of miles away from Sacramento in Miami, Florida.

Then I thought I heard the family's attorney is associated with Trayvon Martin family attorney Benjamin Crump....And suddenly it all made sense.

No apology needed, he was spitting at officers.

As long as there are some small holes on the bag, so he can get sufficient air, I don’t see anything wrong with it.

Police doesn’t have to tolerate being spit on.

Do we need a picture, or was the boy simply reinforcing stereotypes?

Spit hoods are standard for when a suspect is spitting. In this case, the little animal was spitting.

Nice job socializing your little b*****d, mom and dad!... Dad?... Uh, Dad??

Because 12-years-old’s spit is less offensive?

sounds a lot nicer than stuffing an old sock in his pie hole, which is what he deserves

so just because He’s black and 12, he gets a free pass when he spits on police? Spitting bodily fluids on police is an assault!

Leniency?? Spitting on people ain’t nice. How else is he gonna learn? Jaysus these people are stupid.

Someday he’ll likely be picking up his teeth out of the gutter like Chiclets for pulling a stunt like that.

Check out the body cam video of this foul mouthed 12 year old kid as he admits he spit on the police as they detained him.

https://www.kcra.com/article/bodycam-sacramento-police-detaining-boy-spit-officer/27559732

He is the product of the environment he is being raised in.

I couldn't fathom acting like that, cussing like that, let alone spitting on the police when I was 12 years old.

Hopefully the boy was charged with the felony of spitting at officers.

Oh no, it’s *never* the kids fault, like it’s *never* the parents fault. :rolleyes:

IF the parents actually acted like parents and disciplined their kid when needed, then maybe he wouldn’t be acting like a feral hoodrat.

He was shown leniency...they should have tazed the miscreant...

I’m old enough to remember when cops would put you in the hospital for spitting on them...

"As long as there are some small holes on the bag, so he can get sufficient air, I don’t see anything wrong with it."

It was a mesh spit bag. No problem getting air. He continued to curse the police in defiance. Check the video of the body cam posted above.

A mouthful of curb would suffice.
