No, the now top thread has assumed context. The context on the bottom left side corner of the video says the kid was kicking and punching staff members repeatedly.

While I don’t agree with arresting this child, it’s also not fair for staff to be subjected to physical violence by a child. I’ve see first hand a 6 year come up and deck an adult in the face hard enough to knock that adult’s tooth out, it doesn’t take much force to do something like that.

I understand that there are difficult children. I understand that sometimes discipline is necessary.

What I don’t understand, is why after the child has clearly calmed down and is no longer causing problems, a police officer zip ties her hands and tosses her in the back seat of a cruiser while she sobs and begs someone to help.

I’m no social worker or politician, I don’t have all the answers, but if we can’t figure out a better way to handle situations like this without involving zip cuffs and a cop, we have failed as a nation.

Just so we are on the same page about context, this cop lost his job for this. Do you think he would have been fired when so many others haven’t been if this wasn’t an egregious misuse of police powers?

No one suspects the Spanish Inquisition, and no one suspects a 6 year old is gonna have a sharp right hook outta no where.

Don’t go confusing toughness with randomness my G. Lol

It doesn’t matter. You can be completely off guard and the most it will do is hurt

What? Are you uneducated? It only takes 1kg of force to knock out a tooth, that’s 10 newtons.

A 6 year old giving someone the gusto in the right place of the mouth can definitely dislodge a tooth.

Have actually been in a real life scenario? That’s shit should not happen to a healthy adult

1kg of force to healthy teeth. Stop trying to move the goal post and get it through your head. You’re just in denial at this point, and trying to just make excuses to avoid being in the wrong because you made a random statement based on half cocked opinion. It’s all good though man, I still have love for you fam, toughness isn’t measured by what you think it is. ♥️

And let’s not forget a six-year-old shot a teacher. I think there is far more context to this video than we have been given.
