This would be a far stronger argument if not for the silly editing of the video. I loved C.H.I.P.S but what adding it to the video does is make a joke of the entire thing. Why should I take seriously what those presenting the case isn't?

I don't have a lot of pity for parents who let their little brats run out of control and destroy. The other day in the grocery store, a mother did nothing to stop her little brat from poking her little fingers into all the packages of meat -- destroying all that food. Too many parents think everything their kids do is cute.

She has no one to blame but herself. She should have been watching her kids. She should have left a public place once her phone call got out of hand. She should have just showed her ID to the police. Her actions when confronted by the police officer gave credence to the post office worker's complaint against her - that she was angry and out of control.

Um, even from reading this extremely biased account (which was very, very hard to read considering how horribly it was written), I was able to gather that she was arrested because a postal employee called 911 to report that she was screaming threats at the postal employee while kicking the door and throwing rocks.

Fear of incarceration by human authority figurers has led to a the last several generations being made up of undisciplined hoodlums.... Spare the rod spoil the child.....

I agree that the story is probably very biased. But did they really give her a cavity search...???
