"Organizer Rhodes, 19 - who describes herself as a 'promoter' - would only have been officially allowed to bring in two guests herself and two on her mother's pass."

- See more at: What happened at Texas pool party where Eric Casebolt drew gun on bikini girl - Boston Newstime

I guess we can put to rest the narrative some are still pushing that it was just kids who were invited guests at a pool party.

What is at issue is the inappropriate behavior of just one of the 19 officers who responded.

What should be at issue is the inappropriate behavior of dozens of teenagers that precipitated the police being called and of the girl who was put on the ground's behavior leading up to that reaction by the police officer.

STOP MAKING EXCUSES FOR PERVERTS.

College kids act crazier than this on any given weekend and such things do not occur. American ignorance indeed.
Big difference being, when college kids get rowdy no one gets killed.

That pool is huge.

If it had been open, the crowd would have been much cooler.

He resigned. But that is not the only issue.

The woman at the pool accused of racial slurs.
The big guy that stood next to the cop when he attacked that Black teen.

Social media wants justice done to those 2 people as well.
The woman was put on administrative leave from her job. BofA where she works wasted no time in acting.
The other guy..they are still trying to find out who he is so they can go after him as well.

Her behavior was just running her mouth, but she wasn't anywhere near the officer (start at 3:00) when he went for her (back of video) and dragged her back where the other kids were. Casebolt was the only officer escalating the situation - the other officers were calm and respectful.

You had one cop go way overboard. Even the kids( of whom many I believe were gate crashers and got mouthy) weren't thugs. Nit wits, idiots and punks, yes from the video, but not thugs. The two kids he was yelling at that were on the ground were geeks if anything. So there's reports about adults making racist comments after getting into arguments with some of the kids. That probably happened. But how many made those racist comments? A few? One or two? Maybe several? We have no idea. What did the kids say? We have no idea.
Let the locals sort it out and just politely but firmly escort the race baiters and haters and hustlers from the area. A boot up their asses should be enough to convince them to move on.

So I'd say her pool party was a success wouldn't you ?
