tearsO, no i do not have issues. i just ask questions.

now that’s the tea pot calling the kettle black

Rose, your comments really sicken me. The apt.blding incident, I understand, but this one? You’ve got to be kidding. I too worked with troubled teens and it does NOT take all that to calm down a little girl. There is NO justifying that officer’s behavior. And why do you continually attack Bob? Ick is saying the same thing. That cop was wrong!! Are you really not seeing him grab a child, let alone a girl by her hair, punching her in the face, bamming her head against the floor and wall? Had it been my teenage daughter…...... You’ve got some serious issues!!

Regardless, it proves that even video doesn’t tell the whole story.

Who ya gonna trust?

Rose, thanks for asking. We’ve had that crud. I’ve literally been in bed for over two weeks. Thanks for your concern, sweetie. SPRING IS ON ITS WAY!

The thugs at the apt. building should have been tazed. no question about it. They were fighting back with the officers and they were instigating the confrontation, the girl, that according to the video is abusive.  I believe she may have had something in her mouth, maybe drugs and the cop was trying to get them out before she could swallow.  But that will have to come out in the courts.

The incident that took place at an apartment bldg was a different situation.  The video at the apt bldg clearly shows this individual fighting back at the officers.  Justified.  The case of this girl being hit by these officers is discusting of an officer.  The girl was not fighting back.  The case of the shoe did not justify what took place against the girl.  Furthermore, I do have a healthy respect for the law and its officers.  The girl did not deserve this.

well yes he did, that teen was fixing to mess up a crime scene. how you doing southfan1981?

And the Mobile police officer caught on tape, taking down a distraught, combative neighbor or family member at an apartment building gets our applause?

glad to know we both feel the same about each other. now i never said it was ok. what i did post is that if he had beat the chit like you said out of her, they would have needed a stretcher.

rosepetal - You are the last person I would listen to about pretty much anything.  If you said the sun was shining, I would still go to a window and check.  You have proven yourself to be stubborn to the point of being foolish.

And, this idea you have about adult men beating teenage girls being okay, if the bruises are hidden is more than a little disgusting.
