167. This girl was "asked politely" to leave the classroom--first by the teacher,

and then by the cop when she refused. The cop started of by "ask(ing) politely," but when she still refused he got all "Respect mah authoritah" on her and threw her across the darned classroom. She was being an ass, no doubt, but the cop went from polite to brutal as soon as she failed to respect his authoritah.

Wanna bet there was a strong thread of that response from the cops going on here?
