Stop coddling kids, when they act like the way she did. I guarantee there is more to this story.
Watching the vid is a little tough, I don't think anyone likes to see a young girl get body slammed, but it did look like she was being a bit combative with the cop. I posted earlier that I'd like to have seen about 15 seconds or so before he goes all WWE on her.

I saw another clip where she's being interviewed and she was talking about getting ready to fight with another girl, at least that is what it sounded like, so I'm not sure how out of control this girl was.

It would have been nice if the officer didn't do that, but I don't have all the answers, what is their training for in these situations, what is standard protocol, etc etc etc.

I'm old school, you don't mouth off to police and do just as what is posted in the chris rock vid clip.

Be polite, don't have an attitude and be cooperative, seems like if you follow those very basic rules you really shouldn't have a fear of getting body slammed. I get that there are some bad cops, but I believe that most of them are just trying to do a job, a thankless job at times too.

Also, if she had parents (big IF), that raised her properly, none of this would have happened. Cant wait till the storys entire situation is made to the public. And of course, the left wing whiners will be silent..
Yeah, I'm sure this 12 year old is a vicious thug--wait till the details emerge!! Breitbart will probably whip up some Facebook "middle finger" pics any day now.

Also, if this clown needs proper training to realize that slamming children full force onto the ground is never an appropriate response, he probably has the IQ of a turnip.

Thank you, I agree. I'm really curious to hear the answer from those who feel the cop shouldn't have done what he did. What do they think he should've done if she was resisting/kicking/flailing? What would satisfy those who oppose the officers takedown?

Maybe police officers are supposed to ask really nicely and politely for them to stop being a criminal or resisting, maybe if they throw in a few "pretty pleases" too, maybe the criminals and thugs of the world would take notice and surely that would stop unlawful behavior.

Note :: not calling this 12 yr old a criminal, just sayin.

He was not an RSO. He was a patrol officer.

he can grab her arms and cuff her with OUT picking her up and slamming her-- come on !

all want this girl to get slammed- really? what's the real reason? I would bet every paycheck and my house and car- that you would NOT want your child done this way at 12 yrs old specially a girl- I contend that many posters do not have kids. there is no way

You really think it's that simple? This girl is resisting and trying to kick, you think it's just a matter of handcuffing her while this is going on. Ok, interesting. With two people, I think that would be simpler but not as easy as you are making it out to be as a lone officer.

I can't attest to how many times she's been in trouble for fighting and if she was warned that a police officer was en route to the school, but yeah, she herself was talking about getting into a fight with another student.

I'm not saying a body slam was the best approach, but let's all agree that there was something going on.

She brought it on herself. Now she understands there are consequences for her actions.
