    I'd say it's pretty rare that a student refuses to listen to a teacher and then an administrator. So maybe once or twice a semester? Unless it's a revival of Grease.

    Ah, OK. I thought you were suggesting the teacher (or the administrator) should have done that.

    One thing that most kids are good at is trying to manipulate a situation. If kids find out a room can be cleared if they refuse to follow directions, what do you think will happen?

    Again, troubled kids are disruptive in every school in every city every day. The reason this particular case is a news story is because an idiot cop with apparent anger management issues decided to make an example of her by picking up her and her desk, dropping them to the floor (endangering other students in the process) and dragging her across the floor to the door to put handcuffs on her.

    There is no justification for those actions.

    What should he have done?

    It's inconclusive whether the officer tipped the student over or whether the student's flailing caused it in the course of the office trying to move her.

    The dragging does not look good. However, I don't think a police officer restraining someone who is reacting that way is ever going to look like it's anything less than police brutality.

    Few pages back I said if I'm an officer at that school after this and a teacher asks for a student removed I'd say, "let her sit there and suspend her later."

    What schools are those where they are really popular? The schools I know that have them they are not. Also work with a guy who went to a school that has 5 full-time police officers. I know one of those officers from when I was in school. I asked my buddy at work if he knew him. He said we didn't talk to them, we talked to the securty guards but not the cops.

    Larry Allen was widely considered the strongest guy in the NFL when he played. He benched 700 pounds at a body weight of about 325.

    The rule of thumb is once you get past double body weight you are moving into Hercules / on PEDs territory.

    I don't think dude is Hercules. Larry Allen was the player most NFL guys were scared of plus he was the baddest motherfucker alive when he played.
