My main problem is that you (zombie and R.D.) are jumping to conclusions without any evidence, which = prejudice/ignorance.
R.D. admitted he doesn't even know the ? story. That type of analysis on backwards on some "guilty until proven innocent," which is sort of ironic considering what cops have been doing recently.
Again, I know that kids are stupid, and I despise them, but not every kid is a thug. Even if he is (and it's very possible that he is), that still doesn't justify that cop's actions.
Why isn't he being formally charged with child abuse? Where is this kid's parents? So many unanswered questions, and we're already indicting the kid.
What conclusion did I jump to ?
I said there's a 90% chance he was in the wrong and deserved it...there's a 10% chance he's an innocent kid and I'm wrong...I'm going off the tone of both in the video
Putting my disrespectful child in his place ain't disrespecting me...that's some ? logic
LOL this is untalented one type of reasoning and lack of comprehension. Did you graduate high school cause you learn what's wrong with your theory in English class b. ? you learn that in elementary school. Throwing out % based on no merit. -

Upon further review, you're right. My mistake. 90% is still pretty high though...You teach in inner-city schools or something? I would think that one would have to have a whole lot of experience with the "urban youth" to be that confident.Putting my disrespectful child in his place ain't disrespecting me...that's some ? logic
I'm assuming this wasn't directed at me, because I never made that argument.

...and that's my point as well....
Even if he deserves it, doesn't give police the right to give it.
If he has done an offense (legitimately) justifiable to arrest, then he deserves to be handcuffed, taken to jail, and await a FAIR trial......not beat.
It's about the STANDARD of policing and justice. ? a guideline or individual circumstance. -
Nah bro I'm just young enough to still be outside and know how they are and what's going onWhat conclusion did I jump to ?

School officials said the young man in the video is not a student at the school and did not have permission to be on school property.
"No, this is not a student at REACH. (He's) someone who was apparently on the property and did not have permission to be on the property," Perry said.
But a lawyer for the young man told the 11 News I-Team Wednesday afternoon that he is a student at the school and they have school record3s to prove it. The lawyer said they believe officers made a mistake identifying the 16-year-old as an intruder, calling the incident an "unprovoked assault" that resulted in ? injuries.
Somebody lying -
It's wild some of you guys see a cop slapping around and kicking a teenager in school... and jump to the conclusion that the teenager was asking for it.
Now I see how these cops can do anything they want to black people and never get convicted. -

True.....but either way, all those elements are irrelevant to the matter of police abuse and serve as a platform for smart-dumb ? to intellectualize dumb arguments in the spirit of objectivity.....like "hey look I'm going to consider all this bs they threw out there that really doesn't matter because I see the big picture".
Let's say he didn't belong there, then he at most should have been taken to jail for trespassing (and possibly any associated crime as to why he was there, if applicable) by the police, not slapped up by the police. If he wasn't taken to jail for trespassing, well the police didn't do their job so the point that he didn't belong their become moot, unless they're suggesting he should count himself lucky to take the assault instead of going to jail.
Until the PD clarifies WHY the officer initiated strikes without an ongoing struggle, any of the information about the kid is dismissible and smells of face saving tactics in my opinion. -
Lol @ ? saying they letting a grown ass man smack his kid... ? I tell ya
-
What's abuse ?
A lot of people always talk about back in the day, there was a village and ?
Well that was the village stepping in
Nothing is black and white except them fire ass 12s that just dropped(that I would never pay for tho)
The "village" was a place where folks respected each other. It's where the mother went to school with the principal. The father played basketball with the store owner. Where everybody knows everybody and there's no ? ? going on. That's the dynamic of the village.
Its not some stranger, especially a cop, wailing on a child cause they feel like it.
-
These ? defending the cop sound like some black mule, white mouth ? that think black folks deserve to get beat. Kids are acting up? Sure. But so are police. We all see what's going on out here. Can't no cop story or actions be trusted like that. Unless you agree with how they've been terrorizing black folks.

But does that make the cop a ? ?

He seems to have taken on the role of the violent whip-cracking overseer so that makes him something. -
You ? far removed, y'all don't know ? about these kids and what they need
His reaction after getting kicked in the ass let me know he know he earned it
Yall just blinded by the uniform and lumping this with all the other cases
Do you get paid to be remedial, and if so, where can I get an application? Seems like an easy enough job. Smh.
Y'all ? that think this ? ass ? is acceptable prolly ain't even got kids. ? . I hope you don't, for their sake. -

Lmaooo ? go clock in and tell your boss your plans for the day
Oh and suck my ? sucka -
look at this logic
Why ain't it a black man trying to get a younger one on point ?
Your first thought is abuse, why he touching him, police brutality
Victim ass society, that's why it's all these ? ass ? around, they getting raised by ? ass ? and they ain't being taught respect but when they get their ? ass heads flew off, everybody crying on the news
That's why I'm more inclined to see the cop side, you old ass ? ain't outside...know how fast ? getting pulled out on...this lil ? jst got slapped upside the head and told to go home...those frustration slaps...Mike Brown wish he could've caught some of those -
? / thug whatever the ? . I'm not cool with killer cops "disciplining" anyone let alone my kid.
That's some idiotic ? . They can't even manage not to ? unarmed people. -

Baltimore prosecutors are investigating after a school police officer was caught on video hitting and kicking a young man inside a city school.
Baltimore City Public Schools released a statement saying their own officials are "vigorously investigating" the Tuesday incident at REACH Partnership School. In a cellphone video shot by a student, a school police officer can be seen slapping and kicking a young man while another officer stands by.
On Wednesday, Baltimore state's attorney's office spokeswoman Rochelle Ritchie said prosecutors are working closely with the city's police department and the school police to investigate the incident.
"The State's Attorney's Office takes this matter very seriously," she said in a statement.
Baltimore police spokesman T.J. Smith said Wednesday that the department has assigned an investigative liaison from the department's Office of Professional Responsibility to provide assistance to the school police.
The city's police department and the school police force are wholly separate agencies.
Officials have not yet identified the officers involved, but acting school police Chief Akil Hamm confirmed that both were placed on administrative leave with pay Tuesday after officials were made aware of the video.
Hamm said both officers were on foot patrol between schools and were armed at the time of the incident.
Hamm also said the victim was not a student at REACH and that school officials are actively trying to identify him.
But Lauren Geisser, an attorney for the victim, says he is a 10th-grade student at REACH, and that she and her client tried to meet with the school's principal Wednesday but were told he was in a meeting. Geisser said the school provided a printout that listed his name on the school's roster.
Another attorney at the firm, Charles Gilman, said the teen was "a little traumatized" by the encounter.
It's not clear what led up to the incident, or what happened after the camera stopped recording, but Hamm said the officers were called to the school for a report of intruders on campus.
City schools CEO Dr. Gregory Thornton issued a statement calling the officer's behavior "completely unacceptable."
"I am completely appalled and disappointed by what is depicted in the video," he said.
The head of the city's school police force, Marshall Goodwin, has been placed on administrative leave, but some activists and elected officials say that's not enough.
City Bloc, a group of youth advocates in Baltimore, called for the officers involved in the incident to be fired.
"As students, we come to school to learn, and all people in schools, whether teachers, administrators, or yes, police officers, should be committed to making that happen in an effective and safe manner," the group said in a statement released Wednesday, adding that "there are no more excuses for inaction, subpar training and unaccountability."
The incident comes a year after an encounter between a school police officer and three girls at a Baltimore middle school turned so violent that the students were left bloodied; one girl was taken to the hospital, where she received stitches for a head wound.
State Sen. Bill Ferguson, a former teacher in Baltimore, took to Twitter to call for immediate action.
"Inaction is unacceptable by the school board and the @BaltCitySchools CEO," one tweet read. Another read, "It's time for a top to bottom review of @ BaltCitySchools school police department. $8M/yr for police yet $2.5M year on college advising."
Melanie Shapiro, a juvenile public defender, said a school police officer using excessive force on a student is "not what we'd consider an isolated incident."
"At the public defender's office, several clients report to us being treated negatively, both verbally as well as having excessive use of force by school police," Shapiro said. "Because the students are in schools, and the police are in schools, there's a hesitation on the student's part to report. But this incident was captured on video; there's no denying what happened." -

There's a clear distinction between doling out the necessary discipline when a kid is acting up and this. This is going overboard.
A couple y'all ? sound like how these peckerwoods sound when a black person and a cop get into it; automatically assuming the person of assumed authority is in the right.
The way these cops been actin up and you STILL think the kid deserved to be attacked in that manner?
And lol @ you thinking you the only ? that be out here or deal with the youth on routine basis. Okay, lil' buddy. You keep thinking that. -
I watched 'The Wire', that kid was up to something...

Getting slapped and kicked in the ass will surely steer his life in the right direction
