1) Don't watch Fox 2) I'm a black person who does not believe you are one, and if you are, you are a crazy one |
Would you rather be Tasered? The teen got a lucky pass. |
I am a she, not a he and the poster to whom I responded did not in any indicate that she/he was interested in an educated, rational, multifacted discussion about race in this country. He/she just started hollering about white folks. She/he sounded very much like that other fool screaming about black folk. Saying "whites have a bad history with blacks" is not quite the same thing as saying that this country has a long history of racial inequality that is manifested in institutional racism that benefits the majority culture and leaves many people of color left out, left behind and left wanting. Screaming that you are going to pull the race card is just silly. There is no such thing as a "race card". There is is race-ism, which is a very real thing, not a card to be pulled out when convienent. What do you think black mothers push out a race card instead of placenta during labor? Please. |
Why are you getting all pissy with me? I was asking because I didn't know. Was she hospitalized? Does she have injuries? Was it only emotional trauma? I asked what people wanted to see happen here hoping to steer the conversation away from: "you're an asshole" "yeah well you like to have sex with children!" But I guess that is to much to ask for. |

too^ much
embarrassing typo |
Getting your ass beat is not a lucky pass. The hell is wrong with you?
|
Because no one here can have a rational discussion and work toward a resolution. There is too much anger and resentment in this thread. |
How is DCUM supposed to work toward a resolution about something that happened in Texas? Please to explain. The "rational discussion" point, I get. The resolution not so much. |
No one got their ass beat, by any stretch. I agree it was excessive. Let's not make up our own facts here. |
As if there were no other options. Funny, the other officers seemed to have figured out the difference. Don't let your lack of imagination or intelligence be your downfall, PP. |
How many times have you been slammed face down to the ground, followed up with a knee to the back? Geese, what do you consider a beating? |
Yes she did get her ass beat. I mean what else is getting your hair snatched violently, and slammed on the ground then? I'm guessing you're the type that justifies violence against people. Would probably tell a woman in a domestic violence situation that she's over reacting.

Langley Swim and Tennis community pool. I asked my daughter again, what exactly was said to her. She said "Becky" said to her "Larla, I'm not sure you should come to my party on Wednesday because I wouldn't want happened in Texas to happen to my party. My daughter says "What happened in Texas?" Friend says "You haven't seen the video on the news, it all over the internet?" My daughter then has to remind Becky that she doesn't get to watch TV during the week and has limited access to internet. Becky says " Some Black kids went to a swim party at a community pool and someone called the police because they weren't supposed to be there. I've never seen any other black kids at our community pool, so I'm unsure if you should come. I"ll ask my mom and call you tonight." My daughter then says "OOOKAYYYY, uh maybe I shouldn't come, I'll have to ask my mom too." I think my daughter left out some things from the conversation but she was still seriously concerned that she shouldn't go to the party. I then showed her the video of what happened. And Becky has not called as of yet to say whether or not she still is invited. If Becky has not called by 7pm, I am calling Becky's mom for clarification. |
Someone repeatedly beating you or kicking you, causing you bodily harm. Being restrained by a police officer is not getting your ass beat, unless it went all "Rodney King" |
You know what, you're right. I apologize as you have indicated that your intent was good. Reading so many of these ridiculous racist posts does make me pissy. I don't know if she was hospitalized, but if she was arrested, based on the video, police procedures would require medical attention before detention. If she was not detained, Asa parent, I would have sought medical attention, if for nothing else, peace of mind. Based on her screams, I would argue that there is emotional trauma. And good luck, getting these kids to cooperate in any police interactions or investigations in the future. They can't trust them. And yes, I do agree that anybody who thinks that 14 year olds are adults and not children, also makes excuses for pedophiles. I mean you can't say a kid is an adult for some things and not others. The age number doesn't change. |
