In the news this morning, in Baltimore, a 7 year old boy was arrested for "supposedly " riding a dirt bike on the sidewalk in city limits. Can you believe this? He was cuffed and dragged from the bike. To make matters worse, the boy was verbally abused by the police at the 'arrest" site and taken to the police station, in front of the boy's mother. Police BRUTALITY! ABUSE OF AUTHORITY! Shall I go as far to say, that even though the child wasn't charged, it will be a part of his juvenile record until he is 21? Baltimore's Mayor should have the Police Chief's head on a platter for even allowing any of this to happen, and the officers involved should be placed on leave WITHOUT pay until they can attend sensitivity training. The child will be traumatized forever any time he sees a policeperson, and the parents should sue the city without delay. What's next? Toddlers arrested for not being strapped in their strollers?

10 years + driving in the DC area. Likes to listen to DC101 and reads whenever possible. Brutally honest and opinionated.
