It gets creepy about 40+ minutes in. Kids that act out will be put on drugs, and it will be on their permanent record. They will be listed forever as "special needs" children. Even without the parents permission.
Quote: JohnnyQOfficers are trained to speak with students in an effort to get them to comply. If verbal commands fail, officers can use pain compliance, such as pressure points. "When he threw her across the room...that's not acceptable. Ben Fields should not have thrown the student. He was not trained to throw the student. We've done the right thing in our actions in terminating him," Lott said.
The girl was trying to save face in front of her classmates by not complying, and the cop responded with physical force because he is weak.
Had he used tactical conversation, the girl probably would have complied.
George Thompson was a martial artist who was a college professor with a PhD. in English.
He left teaching for Law Enforcement and used his experiences to develop 'Verbal Judo' which is the art of diffusing conflict through conversation.
His course is taught internationally to Law Enforcement, Corporations and Schools.
His videos are worth viewing because 'Verbal Judo' is not just for Law Enforcement.

ROFLMAOQuote: kewlj. You might want to check something a little more official than Wikipedia. For all we know it was greasyjohn who made that Wikipedia entry. :)
Teacher: "Get off the phone or its automatically an F".
Student: "B**ch I ain't care I already be failn." (Or is it "I be already failn?")
Teacher: "No, I mean FOR EVERYONE.
Students would have got her off the phone one way or another.
Just another sad, frustrated, obviously damaged little man on a power trip. He probably tortures animals in his spare time.

Yes, but then some alphabet group would come in and sue somebody for the violation of some right.
I think we almost need two sets of "schools"--one you can stay in if you want to learn, and one that is for people who refuse to learn. This country and the children we are raising need to be kept away from people who refuse to do what they are told to do by the person in authority and who refuse to learn. It hurts the poor kids more than the rich and upper middle class kids; rich/upper middle class kids can just go to a private school.
I'm not saying to give up on anybody; always leave hope for someone to change...
...but darn it...I don't care about your damned "pride"...and I do think the office used excessive force...but if you are told to get off the phone, get the hell off the phone. All we are turning out by letting people act like that is another group of folks who will either work at McDonald's or be in jail.
If this had happened in another setting and, the parties involved were reversed this incident wouldn't have even made the news. What really irks me is the hypocrisy of so many people.....especially Black people. To many African Americans avoid the real bottom line/problems within their ranks. IMO fatherless children is another big issue AA's refuse to address --- the gang culture within SOO many AA communities. Being disrespectful and defiant seems like a normal think in so many troubled black communities. It seems like each new generation/some AA's are getting more and more defiant with authority in general.
Quote: ajemeisterMore importantly, maybe we can create a discussion thread about why schools are deciding to end halloween celebrations/parades because of it not being culturally diverse...?
Didn't President Obama say he was going to transform America? Apparently his agenda is working at this point in time -- ? maybe I should've said the transformation process is working out just as he planned it. IMO if Hilary Clinton gets elected that will be another term for Obama -- leading to the inevitable destruction of this once great country. Hasn't the country had enough of the Clintons and Bush family to last a life time??
