Federal appeals court rules cops who handcuffed 10-year-old girl for drawing offensive picture must face excessive force lawsuit - Lemmy.World

Why the fuck did the school call the cops? Everyone here sucks and failed society at every level. I’m sick of these stories.

Why the fuck did the school call the cops?

You know why…

Tamara Taylor and her daughter, identified in pleadings as “N.B.”, sued the City of Honolulu and the Hawaii Department of Education for false arrest, use of excessive force, and racial and disability discrimination after police handcuffed and arrested a 10-year-old Black girl who drew an offensive picture.

Yeah, I do. I suppose it was a rhetorical question. I’m just pissed off and tired of hearing the same thing for decades
