The video footage is horrifying. The officers were totally getting off on terrifying that child. And the child's mother was not much better, so I was surprised when the family filed a lawsuit.

And then folks argue that cops should be in schools smh.

Also, the biggest failure here is the numerous MCPS officials who just sit there while the cop mocks and attacks that poor kid and threatens to beat him.

Oh and my favorite line is when the cop tells the mom that the kid doesn’t need therapy, he just needs discipline. This. This is precisely the problem with the mentality that cops are the solution.
