Criminal behavior is criminal behavior. If he is old enough to corner two adults and tell them he is going to kill them, he is old enough to get pepper sprayed. It's amazing how back in the day there didn't need to be special schools for children who have nothing mentally wrong with them (according to the boy's doctors). The kids has been missing a few behavior lessons somewhere along the line and if pepper spray works to keep him under control I would add that to my desk drawer if I am his new teacher.HG131 said:
I suspect also his home life doesn't have much structure or he would know that when play time is over it's over. In my day I would be luck if the pepper spray is all that happened to me. The kid has clearly been allowed to behave this way and it's the Mother/Father that need training not the police force.
They should of just put two in his brain pan and done society a favor. With the direction he's heading by corralling teachers in an office and threatening their lives if they come out that's going to be the likely future outcome anyhow. They really ought lock this little sociopath up up now before he does end up hurting someone.
By the sound of the mother she sounds like she's partially to blame for this as well. Her kid is a danger to himself and others and her failure as a parent seems like a good place to start pointing the finger. I wonder if she will still be making excuses for him when he finally seriously injures or kills someone.

Teachers aren't allowed to touch kids any more. If a teach lays their hands on a kid, a shit storm follows. It is probably district policy to call the police if there is a fight or anything like that so the teachers don't get sued.MaxwellEdison said:
Yes and adult could have beaten the shit out of the kid, but pepper spray works faster and safer. In this age of litigation pepper spray is the right choice.
What kind of stick was it? Was it really sharp, because if it wasn't you just need one big cop to charge the boy, grab and separate both arms, and shout: "You WILL calm down, you little twat." I mean come on it's an eight year old with a stick against a group of police officers. Stop being sissys and overpower that misbehaving child.
If he were wielding something sharp then maybe the kid did need some pepper.

I'm pretty sure if the case is "A kid was throwing chairs, so I grabbed him." wouldn't cause too much of a shitstorm. Personally, I would care a bit more about the health of everyone involved than of what the media said about me. Also, why does everyone assume that you have to beat the shit out of an 8 yr old? It's possible to just grab people.bdcjacko said:
Note, I'm not really against this case, as they actually used a non-lethal weapon. It just brought to mind all the other cases where police seemed to forget there was a grab them option.
i dont just smell it, i see it, there is no way he would have behaved passively if he was as angry as otherwise indicated. and I know something about how raging people act from personal expierience. besides he seems to have some serious issues if he previously threw a fit that warranted a 911-call, so i say it was justified.Urgh76 said:
First off, grats to the mom on blaming everyone but herself and her son. Seriously, this lady needs to have this kid taken away from her so he can be locked away from the rest of society before he does end up hurting someone.ravensheart18 said:
Secondly, if he were an adult that were threatening people with a deadly object and then made a move to attack the police he wouldn't have ended up with pepper spray he would of ended up getting sprayed with hot lead. This kid and his failure of a mother should be falling over with relief that all he got was JUST hit with pepper spray.
Thirdly, when this kid ultimately does hurt or kill someone the fact he may have a mental disorder isn't going to make those people any less hurt or dead. So I say bugger that nonsense that he should be given special treatment or handled differently because of this fact. He SHOULD have been put down like a rabid dog but instead he got off with what amounts to a slap on the wrist.
Look, I miss the good old days where the teachers took problem children to the board of education or the school board or whatever you call that paddle with the hole in it. But now a days, if a teacher lays a hand on a child, even to hug them, they get sued.MaxwellEdison said:
In this can easily see if a teacher did try to grab the kid, a struggle would have ensued and the media would have spun this into "Teacher assult mentally trouble child!!!!"
