Student Cussed, Got Unruly, Got Warned…Got Tased

There is this saying…how does it go? “Stupid is as stupid does.”

“Freedom of speech”…..now, Thats funny.

As I said on my Facebook page:

Dad, wake up. Your son is on a bad path, try a little discipline at home and maybe JR won't get tased again.

Leave raising your kids to the schools and the cops and this is what you get!

I don't know… I just have a thing against the casual use of tasers. The non-lethal weapon has killed hundreds of people across the country. When you're tasing minors, the risk of serious damage increases. I don't think people in general know how dangerous police-issue tasers are, and I KNOW the police don't.

Some ol' fashioned, hand-to-hand submission makes a hell of an impression, and is far less likely to do damage to the heart.

But, ultimately, it's nice to hear about the little shit getting dealt with. And, yeah, dad needs to step up or bow out.

I agree with Athena, I don't know about Tasing, but I am glad the little thug got dealt with. DAD is the reason he acts the way he does..a child emulates what he is taught. ***shakes head***

I think the police took the appropriate action to go “hand-to-hand” with a teen who is big as Andrea the Giant is a no win situation. He was obviously intent on learning today's lesson in class but now he will have the chance to stay at home and finish on line and cuss his family and smoke his cigs.

Hopefully he will learn that there is a BIG DIFFERENCE in disturbing the peace and Freedom of Speech. Maybe he can learn on line.

I have a feeling due to the lack of interest the dad has and the way this twat thinks of “freedom of speech” he will be feeling the shit end of a taser in his future.

A taser is an affective little tool. The po-po pulls the device out and I would shut up and stop quickly. (not that I do anything that is going to put me in that position)

I am going to go learn me some cussin' words so that I can properly practice my freedom of speech!

Oh man, K! I am so sorry. I was seriously wondering about you. You definitely are in my thoughts. Everyday will be better and better. I promise.

Thanks.

THEY SHOULD USE THE TAZER ON THE FATHER ALSO,SOUNDS LIKE A BAD GENE POOL!

In contrast to the last story, I would say this officer acted properly: he advised the suspect he was under arrest and – when the suspect resisted arrest – the officer calmly used necessary force to subdue him. The officer didn't blow his stack and rage like a madman because some dumb kid wasn't addressing him as “Your Excellency.”

That's the kind of rational, even-handed law enforcement that I like to see. Let the punk cool his heels in a cell for a couple of days.

I don't think it's necessarily fair to be so hard on the dad in this situation. For one, the dad is NOT defending or denying his son's behavior like so many do. He acknowledged that the behavior was unacceptable. He just thought tazing the teen was a bit extreme. That's a fair assertion.

Also, no, behavior is not necessarily a parent's fault, especially within the black community, sadly. “Peer pressure” is an over-used term, in my opinion; it's really lost its impact. But the reality of the situation is that, once your child becomes a teen, their peer group is THE most influential force in their lives. Most parents luck out – their kids fall into peer groups where kids have similar values and upbringings. But if you are so unlucky as to have a kid fall into a bad peer group, your battle has just begun. Your child can become unrecognizable in no time, and all your efforts to bring them back into your flock are met with resistence, perhaps pushing your child even farther away.

We don't know that this is what happened with this family, but the very fact that the father is involved in this kid's life suggests that he's probably been fighting to save his son from the temptations of the “thug life” for awhile now, as so many black parents have to do these days.

it's not only that the kid gave the cops a big “fyou”, he also disrespected the principal of the school…0 & 2 for respecting authority right there.

As far as the dad is concerned, he stated in the video that ole boy only said a couple of bad words to the policeman…doesn't address the fact that his dick head son didn't follow direction from the principal nor the police. Kid can't follow direction, police willl make him follow direction…end of story!

In a time where school shooting are going on all the time and all theses video of police using force, its a matter of can't make an omelet without breaking some eggs. Police need respect and need some leeway in doing their job. Do cops get out of line? yes! But it not suppose to be a pleasant experience, sure allot better police treatment than in Africa or Asia where its not uncommon for homeless children to be gun down by police before they become bandits.

i gre up in an amazing family but as a teen made my fair share of poor choices and did stupid shit. Even though in my head I knew it was wrong. However i never disrupted the learning of anyone nor did i ever excercise my freedom of speech by telling a cop to fuck off. i still managed to remain respectful while acting like an ass!

Hey! No need to speak poorly of twats!

I think the police were following procedure. The kid was disrupting the peace, he was warned repeatedly. That's another problem we have. We warn our kids over and over, and they learn that's all they will get is another warning. So many parents don't follow through. Warn them, then follow through with a consequence. He thought he was a big tough guy. He found out there are consequences when you tell the cops fyou.

You're right, I grew up around kids who were taught to respect the police, not tell them to fuck off and then go on their merry way.

And yes, it is his father's fault, as well as any other parental figure in his life. Maybe he should have taught the little bastard to respect people. Because he's lucky he only mouthed off to a cop and got tased, and not to some big asshole on the street and got shot.

But unless the kid started to physically resist arrest & the officer used hard force or whatever then they would've gladly sued the cops & then lived like royalty off OUR tax payments thinking that they are always right & cops aren't.

By a round of applause who here thinks that the cops did right & that the dad should STFU & spank his own prodigy since I bet the little c*nt talks to him like that too.

BTW, I also think he probably thought that he was gonna be the big man in school for acting up & when he got tasered & pissed his pants then he became the laughing stock. Not only that but he's now also embarrased since if he would've been beaten up by the cops, he would've totally shown his face on tv.

I have a feeling they didn’t show his face on tv as a matter of protocol because he’s a minor, and I think they’d have to get permission from his father to show his face. I could be wrong though, and he could very well just have been too embarassed, as he should be, but I’m sure it’s not because he’s ashamed of his behavior. That boy got schooled, and it stings. Won’t be his last run in with the law I’m sure.

he cussed.. he wasn’t violent.. he’s 17.. – they needed a fucking taser? what pussy ass fucks. just drop kick his ass and that’s, that. far better then tasering the snot.

As soon as someone resists arrest, like this idiot, they deserve to get Tased. Hell, the deserved to be clubbed with a nightstick, but whatever.
