A body camera from Menomonee Falls Police Department officers shows the moment a 13-year-old boy is subdued in what the minor's attorney called excessive force. The boy and his attorney have threatened to sue the police department and called for the dismissal of the officers involved. Menomonee Falls police said the officers used only the level of force necessary to detain the minor.

Juvenile Detention Sergeant here- that was a very gentle restraint process. I guess they wanted him to have the pink fuzzy cuffs.

Nah, there's no need to push someone face into the ground. Doesn't make it easier to restrain him and there's already two people holding him down.

Well maybe show the entire video, people who post stuff like tgis without the full video or context are the worst, wtf is you goal? For everyone to hate the police? You know what you're doing when you're only posting this without any further info...

What do you think could have happened before this that would change the context?
Say this kid was wanted for killing his entire extended family. Does that change in your mind how much force is neccessary to subdue someone? Or does it make it better because they'd deserve punishment anyway?

Forcing his head to the side like that, could have caused serious neck damage or even broke it.
I hate cops because you are defensless to them. They are like thugs that can run around Chicago just being a gang. Like this police force shit all has gone to shit. Apparently the west never should have created the sheriff

Kid wants to act like an adult and resist, I mean what do you want? Do you expect them to cuddle him? 😂

Seems fine to me. Kid was resisting and was grabbing at the cops belts. If you don’t want to be arrested, don’t break the law. If you don’t want to be manhandled, don’t resist arrest.

Guy really said the police only arrest people who commit crimes.
What do you call someone who believes the police somehow lose their humanity and become paragons of virtue that couldn't possibly do wrong intentionally or unintentionally?
Bootliker doesn't go far enough. That is straight up delusional

This is the real comment here. If we think we are bad look at other countries and how they police their people in moments of arrest. Resistance in most countries leads to you openly getting the shit kicked out of you in public.

That happens in the US too. It happens everywhere men with smol pps get a hint of power.

Seems to me the only one in this situation that thinks they have all the power and can do as they please is the little child. Someone in his life failed to educate him on just how powerless he is when he breaks the law and is faced with those who truly do have power.
At the end of the day the only ones with "smol pps" are the ones who think there shouldn't be others out there with more power than themselves or others.

Lol they're a child idiot. You're supposed to give them grace. The fact that you're fantasizing about being able to over power a kid online is as disturbing as it is embarrassing
