Insane Arrest Of A Six Year Old Little Girl

No, you don't know. But since you "can practically guarantee" I guess you're saying you do know.
"......schools are unable to do what they used to do." Right. Time for new innovations I'd say. As for what they are unable to do, in some cases that might be a good thing.
 

I'm retired. I'm not in the field of education. I would like to stop this particular dialogue with you as I feel it is becoming unpleasant. It is also off-topic. Thank you Carol.
 

Did anyone bother looking at a different source for that same story? Here is one: from Time

A police officer who arrested a 6- and 8-year-old at an Orlando charter school on Thursday is facing an internal investigation.
Police said in statements that Dennis Turner, a member of the police’s volunteer Reserve Officer Program who was working as a school resource officer, failed to get permission to arrest the children from his supervisor, and has been suspended from his duties.

The Orlando Police Department said in statements that the reserve police officer who arrested the girl, Dennis Turner, had arrested a 6-year-old and an 8-year-old while working as a school resource officer at a charter school. The children, who had been involved in separate incidents, were both arrested on misdemeanor charges.
The police did not release the children’s names, as they are juveniles.

Police said that the 8-year-old was arrested and processed at a Juvenile Assessment Center. The child was then released to their parents.

The police officer who had transported the 8-year-old didn’t know that the officer had not obtained permission for the arrest, but the officer who arrested the 6-year-old stopped the child from being process once they learned that Turner had not obtained permission for the arrest, according to statements. The child was brought back to school before being brought to the Center.

So, there were TWO children arrested that day but you only hear about the 6 year old because her grandmother screamed about it. Nothing is known about the 8 year old because that child's guardian didn't scream about it. Could have been white, could have been black, could have been any other race or nationality.

Trying to make this into a race issue isn't helpful at all. It's actually harmful. It doesn't address the issue which is how do schools handle unruly children?

How about the parent's being responsible for their kid's behavior? Wow, what an idea.
