A South Carolina officer attacks, slams African-American female student to the ground. Racial tension between police and the African-American community has only increased over the last year. After a video circulated on social media Monday night showing an officer attacking a student, that tension only got worse. An unnamed African-American female was allegedly disturbing class and was asked to leave, when she refused, a school resource officer was called in to help the situation. As local WIS-TV in South Carolina reported on Oct. 26, the officer only made matters worse. In a class room in Spring Valley High School in Columbia, S.C., a typical scene of a student acting out apparently took place. When the student refused, the unnamed Caucasian officer entered the room, grabbing the students arm where he proceeded to slam the girl and her desk to the ground. The video was captured by a fellow classmate that also showed the officer putting the student's arms around her back, positioning her to be arrested. "The student was told she was under arrest for disturbing school and given instructions which she again refused," Sheriff Leon Lott told local WIS-TV. "The video then shows the student resisting and being arrested by the SRO." The officer has since been placed on leave. The video began circulating throughout social media, mostly on Facebook and Twitter, where outrage and debate over proper police procedure took place. While many have hopes that the tension between African-Americans and the police community will star to cool down, incidents like the one in Spring Valley High School shows there's a lot of work to do.Spring Valley High School’s ‘Incredible Hulk’ — Deputy Ben Fields — has history of alleged misconduct and racial bias

Just out of curiosity would YOU have had him done? Let's just say that YOU were the cop and had been called into the classroom to remove a disruptive student,and she grabbed on the desk she was sitting in and refused to let go or get up out of the desk. What would YOU have done?
Her parents should have beat her more. Then she wouldn't be such a dumb ass that needs to be arrested. She will be a loser in life.
