Don’t make a wrong move," the officer said as he pinned the struggling subject to the ground. “Period.”
The officer tightened the handcuffs around the subject’s thin wrists.
“Ow, ow, ow, it really hurts,” the subject exclaimed.

“If you, my friend, are not acquainted with the juvenile justice system, you will be very shortly,” the officer told the child.
Earlier that day, the child allegedly spit at a teacher. Now, he was in handcuffs and a police officer was saying he could end up in jail.
That child — a second grader with autism at a North Carolina school — was ultimately pinned on the floor for 38 minutes, according to body camera video of the incident. At one point, court records say, the officer put his knee in the child’s back.
I shouldn’t have to feel so lucky that I got to go to school without fucking cops everywhere.
Somebody please correct me if this is wrong, but to my knowledge a “school security officer” has never stopped a single mass shooting, but they have shot and abused kids.
good question, i don’t recall any reportage on something like that, but it seems likely and could’ve been hidden beneath layers of obfuscation & neutral cop speak

Oh I know for a fact they’ve shot students before, I’m pretty sure I posted a story about that on this website a few years back. I was more trying to check my suspicion that they’d never saved anybody.
