COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — The attorney for a teen who was flipped backward out of her desk and tossed across a classroom says his client did suffer several injuries during her arrest.
Columbia attorney Todd Rutherford told ABC's "Good Morning America" on Wednesday that Richland County Senior Deputy Ben Fields should have been fired as soon as Sheriff Leon Lott saw the video recorded by several students at Spring Valley High School in Columbia.
"She now has a cast on her arm, she has neck and back injuries. She has a Band-Aid on her forehead where she suffered rug burn on her forehead," Rutherford told the network.
Lott had said Tuesday that the girl was uninjured in the confrontation but "may have had a rug burn."
ROFLMNAO!
Well yes... suffering injury is what one should reasonably expect when you tell a 250 lb man with 18" biceps to shove it.
RULE: Never tell a man who is 5 times your size to shove it.
Consequences for violating the rule: Potentially severe injuries.
That is how it works and the attempt to alter 'how it works', will only make the situation worse, inevitably causing greater injury.
Now would you like to see what happens to kids who think that THEY are the center of the universe and that they should bear no respect for cops?
Allow a brief demonstration, go to 4:10 to see the relevant penalty for early withdrawal of respect for lawful authority:
Just shut up. It's embarrassing that you support a police state. You and Jake Starkey are so far up a Brownshirt's ass you might as well start peeing through your bellybuttons.
ROFL!
Buddy... Let me be clear. THAT KID was injuring the rights of everyone in that classroom. She does NOT have a right to use her phone in class. She does not have a right to interrupt the class. She does not have a right to refuse to obey the teacher's reprimand. She does not have a right to refuse to leave the class. She does not have a right to refuse to obey the lawful instructions of a duly appointed law enforcement officer.
By failing to bear the responsibilities intrinsic in sustaining her right to not be tossed like a salad... she forfeited her right to not be tossed like a salad and was, therein... tossed. Where one forfeits their rights to not be tossed... one should expect, at the minimum... some form of personal injury to herself.
Had that kid done that in my class. She would have met with one Principle Hall. Hall would have grabbed her by the hair and drug her and her desk out into the hall... where he would have removed her from that desk, removed the rope he routinely carried in his back pocket... which he would have used to hog tie her... and from which she would have dangled all the way back to his office. She would then spent the rest of the day tied up in the corner of his office, until such time as she was responding with due respect, at which point she would have been given the choice of the paddle... where the rope requirement brought 12 whacks. OR... she would be EXPELLED from school.
She likely would have taken the whacks and she would have returned to class the next day... and been a model of cooperation for the foreseeable future.
Ask me how I know... .
Now do you think that some parents did not get all pissy with Principle Hall? Sure they did.
And each and everyone was given the option of
"Shutting the **** Up and stop ruining their child" whereupon their child was welcome to stay in that school... or
"Getting the **** out of his Office and take their kid with 'em. As they were no longer welcome at the school".
Now, just as an FYI... one of the kids whose Dad pulled him out, was killed in a bar fight in 1980, two years after our class graduated.
See how that works?
