Ok. Is it just me or are 21st century cops the biggest wussies on the planet? Here's an 11 year old girl who got tasered:

and 5 year old that got handcuffed...

C'mon, is there any circumstance that requires tasering an unarmed 11 year old, or cuffing a unarmed 5 year old? How do these cops show their faces in public again? Wouldn't you be just a little embarrassed if you tasered or handcuffed a little kid?
I would be embarrassed if an 11 year old...

defending an assault on a "violently crazed 11 year old". Don't spend much time with kids do you...
"What a crock" right back at ya.

Never been seriously threatened by a 160 pound "child" in a violent rage, have you? Believe me, there are times when such a "child" has to be restrained at any cost, regardless of their age. You're problem is you hear "11 year old girl" and you think "Shirley Temple" when maybe you should be thinking "Lizzy Borden on steroids".
You have a stereotypical picture of "11 year old girl" in your head that is nothing like the reality of this situation. Thus your cognitive dissonance, and your concomitant failure to understand the context.
I can't tell you how many parents I've dealt with who believe that their child, or ANY child of a certain age MUST of necessity, always be innocent of any wrongdoing whatsoever. That's just a crock. Need I remind you of the numerous sensational cases of children who have murdered playmates in cold blood? Unfortunately, some kids are just plain bad, and just plain difficult to control. This kids was no Shirley Temple, so get that Good Ship Lollipop image out of your head and tune into reality.

Looks like the fizzled primitive just slapped walldude (I know frank's got a name for this one, I just don't remember it) pretty good.
