[Irving]

Since when does an 8 year-old have to be having a fit to get pepper sprayed?

Since when does an 8 year-old have to be having a fit to get pepper sprayed?

since the kid had a weapon and verbalized threats.

[Irving]

No, I mean, why does an 8 year-old have to be throwing a fit before he gets a face full of pepper spray? I've met some 8 year-olds that I want to pepper spray just because of the annoying way that they play Nintendo.

Bet that fat cow of a mother will get a lawyer and sue the cops/school district. probably end op with a really nice amount of $$$$. Frank Azar will take that case, the strong arm.

In my day that little bastard would have gotten his ass paddled good with a nice thick oak paddle. I instigated a food fight in my school cafeteria- guess who got the paddle? I never started a damn food fight again.

Pretty sure we aren't taking that case.. There is something to be said about suing a city and a PD that is never beneficial.

I would have sent in another 8 yr old to kick that kids ass in justifable self defense.

Cop was in a no win situation, if he physically controlled him he would have be accused of police brutality.

Good call

[Elhuero]

yeah, from the video he does seem like a little shit momma's boy, doesn't he?

[sniper7]

well at least they didn't shoot him.

i don't really care if they sprayed him or not. he sure didn't seem to have an attitude adjustment since the incident.

lawsuit will probably be filed, a settlement for an undisclosed amount will be given to the mother and they will move districts.

It would have been better had the teacher said she was going to kill him back and beat the shit out of him. I know kids will be kids, but saying they are going to kill someone, have a sharp object in their hand and calling them mother effers would give me enough cause to toss a chair and the kid and immobilize him with a few random elbows and blows being tossed in.
