There is no explanation for this, a little girl is not capable of forming the mens rea of crime as she wouldn't even have the concept of what is and isn't illegal; she would only have a beginners concept of right and wrong based on a societal model of morality, after all, that's why she's in Kindergarten. Her Teacher should be fired for being so incompetent. Can somebody from America shed light on the law surrounding arresting children? Should the police be investigated?

How the fuck can any of you deny America is a police state when arrests are allowed to happen to innocent children. Lashing out is a common form of frustration for children. Why would an arrest be made when doing so doesn't keep society more safe, doesn't decrease the chances of the "offender" re offending, and doesn't provide closure as their were no victims? Her mother appeared to be well spoken, not some ghetto ignoramus.

the criminal code of canada and the youth criminal justice act does not allow for anyone under 11 to be charged with a criminal offence.

I got this one bulldogs :

She was arrested because she is a violent offender and had she not been handcuffed she could have wreaked unlimited amounts of havoc and possible injured or killed a police officer. Too bad they couldn't get 15 officers on the scene to really give her what she deserved.

Also, we don't know if she had a weapon or some kind of gang affiliation.

No he'll probably take the "you're just a snot nosed cop hating college "kid" with no real life experience, no realization of what goes on in the real world, and that this incident is in no way representative of police practices. He will probably write up a very long, aggressive post littered with questions and accusations about me much like how a police officer would handle an interrogation.

I am having problems posting in this thread; apologies if this or a similar response appears 2 or 3 times....

This monster of a child was biting and scratching a teacher; I have no problem with this whatsoever.

The same idiots who claim America's a police state would have a fit if this teacher smacked the girl in the mouth or physically hauled her to the principal's room and detained her so she could cool off. This kid's going nowhere fast in life, and I'm not about to allow her to cause a scene and be a detriment to the rest of her class.

If someone age 6 or 16 attacks a teacher in my school, I'm calling the police, I'm letting them hold onto the girl until her inept parents come get her, and I'm kicking this kid out of school so fast your head would spin. She doesn't get to ruin other kids lives because she's a failure.

The same retards who claim there's a police state in America would have a fit if this teacher physically removed the girl from her classroom and detained her in the principals office, or smacked her in the mouth like the girl probably deserved. I'm not willing to lose my job over a kid that's going nowhere fast in life, so I'm calling the cops, I'm letting them detain the little girl, and I'm letting her obviously inept parents deal with it.

This problem child doesn't get to cause a scene and raise hell to the detriment of the rest of the class. She's not special.

Lol, are you being satirical? Monster of a child? That teacher should have asked every other kid to leave the classroom and isolate the problem child, that would be an alternative way of dealing with the situation without placing a hand on the child, and it would have been effective. Calling the police inflames the situation, and you need to source your claim of her biting and scratching at the teacher, not that I find it unbelievable but you can't just claim that because you feel it's convenient for you to say.

That little girls lash out has nothing to do with the rest of her life, you have no idea of what her future will be like. Also, if the little girl was posing a health or safety risk to anybody, especially the other children, the teacher would have been justified to use physical force to remove her. There would have been an investigation, but if you can't handle that than you can't handle the job.

wtf, is that even possible? spank your kid, put her in time out, and go on with life.
