1. Have you seen the video of this incident? If you have not, I am sure you can find it on your phone. If you really want to see it, I will be happy to share it on my iPad for you to watch.
Yes, Katie showed me the video about 5 minutes ago. The policeman completely flipped the student out of her seat and dragged her out of the room.

The Sheriff did a good job of making sure the public understood where he stood on the subject. He directly stated that what deputy Ben Fields did was wrong and he didn't handle it correctly.
3. Do you think that police brutality is a problem in this country?
Definitely! And I never thought about the problem would stretch out to kids, it's horrible.

I think there is some stereotyping that comes with suspicious behavior and acting up, and it's shown more than ever in the past year.
5. What role does social media and cell phones play in this issue?
More people become aware when all these situations are getting posted. Situations like this are public on Twitter and Instagram all the time.

Yes, it's good that more people see and read the unfair experiences that people go through with the police.
