I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
OK, what self control? There is basically 30 seconds of video AFTER the deputy arrived.
I see him reach over grabbing her arm and leg, not the throat as reported. He pulled up, the desk followed. He did not allow her to hit the ground when the desk went backwards as he kept his grip. She was swinging at him during this so after he got her out of the desk, he pushed her to an open area of the floor,
I support the cop. Period.We must stop coddling these people who defy authority and believe they have a "right" to adjudicate their issues on the spot.I think he used the minimum necessary force. If he'd have used a taser on her they'd have squealed to high heaven.What was he to do? Ask "please"? c'mon. My parents had seen me on TV doing that as a kid in school I'd have been unable to sit for a month.

That does happen more often than not doesn't it. The chair spun out on the spindly legs is not what I saw. He could have taken her into custody while she was sitting in the chair. I bet on the side of the car he rode in on were the words "to protect and serve". Was she really a threat with a .45, no she was a young lady with a cell phone. Was she wrong, yes she was talking on a cell phone in class. That must be a felony right. Did he need to use that much force to take control, well most of you think so and I am sorry you feel that way. Maybe if the cops would treat people more as equals instead of a threat, or that cops need to be in control of everything and everyone, these type of events would be far fewer. One way to get into a fight is to act like you are looking for one. What happened to saying calm heads prevail.
Ever seen a teenager with a knife? If that officer walked up on her in condition white its not very far fetched that the girl could have had a knife or other weapon.Come to Texas. We don't play. This cop took down a high school kid. No apology, no charges. Just the way it should behttp://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/video-texas-high-school-grabs-teen-throat-article-1.2392653Just where would she have been hiding the knife or other weapon, kind of a stretch there RN ? That is just BS. As far as the video you posted, that is something to be really proud of, I bet he feels really good about that.
