A boy should always have a target dog to shield him from police abuse.
DON’T TASE ME BRO!!!!!!!!!!
But hey, the Cops went home to their families.
And
No dogs were shot.
When the only tool you have is a hammer...
A boy should always have a target dog to shield him from police abuse.
The boy was way out of line...
“It was not their first visit to the home on such reports.”
Same kid? The 10 year old, 100 pounder?
Another PR score for Serve & Protect.
When I see a story like this, I wish there was good quality video of the incident.
On the other hand, is this a wild little ten year old, or a TEN YEAR OLD in a high school football players body?
At 94 pounds, it sounds like the former.
Isn’t it a little strange that the police had to be called in the first place?
When I was growing up (70’s) a friend of mine’s family had a very long and drawn out court battle. His mom was a teacher, and she had tied a kid to the chair. I don’t even know how the case turned out.
But looking back on it...why not tie the unruly kid to the chair, call mom or dad to come take him home, and move on with life.
But now the police have to get involved? Wow. I think the 70’s and 80’s were transitional. My friend’s mom was acting in a 1950’s manner...something that would probably make national news today. But has this change made us better or worse?
A ten year old. Wow what are they using in the academy, puppies?
The next thing you know they’ll be tasing 10 year olds at day cares
Kid is lucky he wasn’t shot. It could have turned out much differently if he had pulled a pop tart firearm on the cops.
Sadder still is that the Day Care called the police and not the boy’s parents, specifically a father. When did calling the police become the default for everything? (rhetorical)
Tasered at Tender Teddies Day Care?
You just can’t make this stuff up!
Probably why I never went into comedy writing. Real life kept getting stranger than the most twisted ideas my brain could cook up.
Words of wisdom from a bygone era:
Rules for training children
Susanna Wesley was the mother of John and Charles Wesley—and 17 other children. Here are some simple rules which she used in training her children for God:
1. Eating between meals is not allowed.
2. Children are to be in bed by 8 p.m.
3. Children are required to take medicine without complaining.
4. Teach children to fear the ‘rod of correction’.
5. Teach children to pray as soon as they can speak.
6. Require all children to be still during family worship.
7. Give children nothing that they cry for. Only grant their wishes when asked for politely.
8. Parents should not punish any fault which is first confessed and repented of. This will prevent lying in children.
9. Never allow a sinful act to go unpunished.
10. Commend and reward good behavior. Any attempt to please, even if poorly performed, should be commended.
11. Strictly keep all promises to children.
12. Parents are to subdue self-will in every child. When the will of a child is totally subdued, and it is brought to revere and stand in awe of the parents—then a great many childish follies may be passed by. I insist on the conquering of the will of children early, because this is the only strong and rational foundation of a religious education. When this is thoroughly done, then a child is capable of being governed by reason and piety.
“The silent influence of parental conduct is far greater, either for good or for evil, than most parents are aware of. You teach by what you say, you influence by what you do; and also by what you do not say, and do not perform.” J.A. James
“O parents, parents! Take care what you are teaching your children by your example. You are always influencing them for good—or evil. You are leading them to Heaven—or to Hell. Not a day passes, but you produce impressions, perhaps permanent impressions—either good or bad!” James Smith

Our system is so screwed up. If a parent or teacher spanked the 10 year old for being unruly and throwing tantrums, they would have been arrested. But its OK for cops to taze the kid.
This is my standard observation about these circumstances:
People call the police when something physical needs to be done and they can’t for liability reasons, do it themselves. It’s like store employees being told not to interfere with shoplifters.
Parents want to sue at the drop of a hat. Parents of the type that would have an uncontrollable child maybe more so. Tough situation to be in.
that’s what stun guns and slaps are for....to get the attention of unruly people....of any age! While the stun gun is uncomfortable..it hurts nothing except ones ego!
