you know what the worst part is? in america especially, you should say thank god they were only arrested.
that's a miracle in itself.
Ask Tamir Rice.
Oh you can't, because a lunatic cop basically did a drive-by and shot him dead.
Really all you can do is be happy they did not die in the process.
That's what america got itself into. and the police are really not to blame.
the people are. Take back your country, if you are not pleased with how it's run.
people seems to be caught up in this thought process:
"I will be vocal online and on social media on how much i hate this so people will approve of my moral compass, but i rather not do anything real about it because i got it good and don't want to spoil it"
i don't live in america, thankfully, but you guys need to get your sh@t together and go back to the combative, strong minded people you were before 9/11

Crazy vids.
If your a teacher and need to call the cops as backup to take on a 5yr old, you pretty much have failed at being a adult.

I understand the fear-it's legitimate, the threat is pretty real.
But then what can you do? submit or leave the country, those are the two options you have left.
But if you could organize a nation wide protest, literally millions of people, what's going to happen? are they all going to get shot? all arrested? Mind you, the protest does not have to be violent, because then you are automatically wrong. I speculate, if millions of people, of all races or genders actually moved to protest in some way things would change, just imagine, get a few million people in new york to just stop their cars, in the middle of the road, and just sit there. for days if necessary. What will they do? bomb the cars? shoot everyone?
I know it's easier said than done, but if nothing at all is ever done, then yeah, bow your head of head for greener pastures i guess.

Some times the police do this, with the consent of the parent, to scare a kid. The scared straight tactic.

Why is it the parents are never to blame? Their child is basically going ballistic in school yet it's the teacher, the administration or the fault of the cops who came. Why are they hammering this message that somebody other than the parents is responsible for the behavior of these kids?
I've run in to some of these kinds of kids personally and they just might make you believe in demonic possession. They respond to nothing positive or negative - they just do their thing and explode like tiny nuclear bombs. it's easy to sit here and criticize how adults on scene handled the situation but try dealing with some of these hellspawn yourself, it might change your opinion somewhat.

If a teacher lays a hand on kids they get sued, if the principal can't calm the kid down they call the parents, if the parents won't come get them, the only option they have left is to call the cops.

I've heard and read about these insane arrests and suspensions of kids, not just in the USA but also in the UK where it's not as bad however. In the topic about the 9-year-old being suspended I said I literally cannot believe it and I still feel somewhat incapable of doing so. The videos you posted are nauseating even though probably most of them are scare tactics. Like with the last boy, the black 7-year-old, I clicked on the YouTube link and read in the comments that it was to prevent him from stealing in the future. Viewing it shocked me but luckily that at least wasn't an actual arrest. (or attempt to, I don't think such young children can be arrested anywhere in the USA... right?)
There're several mentions of absolutely horrible and insane events but I wonder... these things don't happen over here and it's not like American people suddenly had a wholesale drop in IQ to that of a potato, nor have they suddenly become insane. How is this possible?
If this is not grossly exaggerated I really wonder what the heck is going on. Unfathomable. And when such things happen at schools,how come parents still send their kids there after something like that happened. I'd be worried about my child's personal safety, be it psychological or physical. Such schools and teachers prove to be a danger for your kid's well-being.
