Arkansas Policeman in heroic action?

It would be interesting see for ourselves what occurred in the lead up but watching the bit here it seems that the kids need to learn to how not to interfere with a police officer, EVEN if they think their friend is being hard done by.

If the city ordinance forbids skateboarding on the sidewalk the fact that it's "national skateboard day" doesn't overrule that ordinance.
I grew up at the tail end of an era where the local policeman would give misbehaving youths a "clip round the ear" then send them on their way
Today kids think they can get away with anything, these kids found out this is not the case.
Some may think the officer was a bit heavy handed, I didn't see that, what I saw was a bunch of kids trying to mob the officer, running off when the officer ordered them to halt and using foul language in public.
Better they learn a lesson now than in a few years.

Thirteen year old kids skateboarding on the pavement(sidewalk) on National Skateboarding Day. One of the skateboarders almost collided with a pedestrian. The attending policeman completely 'loses it'. Every rule regarding minors goes out the window. They are handcuffed, threatened with being 'sprayed'. Left face down on the pavement with their hands cuffed behind their backs.
The policeman concerned looks and acts like a Nazi. I hope he is fired or has the decency to resign when this gets more publicity.

I think the officer was doing his job.

I like how the kids were saying stuff like all we were doing was riding a skateboard, riding a piece of wood, there are people robbing and stealing and you are harrassing me.

Last time I checked, if you fuck up and a cop tells you to stop, you are supposed to stop.

It seems to me that if the kids would have stopped when told to stop there wouldn't have been this outrage.

I would understand if the cop beat the shit outta them but he did no such thing.

The two of you are doing sterling work here.

Carry on.

I kind of hope that's sarcasm, because if it's not I may have to re-access the way I am looking at this


Edit: is there a delay in posts showing up today?

It is not sarcasm.

BTW-

You mis-spelled "re-access".
