"Call my momma! Oh God!" This is "mouthing off"? Only when a black girl does it.
This is the best response I've seen to the pool attack yet.

The words that keep coming back to me in this video from McKinney came from the mouth of a petite girl in a pink and yellow bikini as she’s pulled to the ground by a police officer twice her size.
“Call my momma. Oh God!” she cries.
She’s weeping in fear as Cpl. Eric Casebolt pushes her face into the ground and then straddles her back shouting demands for her to stop struggling.
What struggle? She’s a child on the ground in handcuffs crying for her mother.

But it’s impossible not to wonder how different a scene this would have been if these kids had been white instead of black. Would Casebolt have dared to drag a blond-haired, blue-eyed girl to the ground screaming “ON YOUR FACE!” at a pool in an affluent suburb?
If your answer is yes, let me know the next time that happens.

were either racist, ignorant, hateful or a combination...
and "it's not racism if a white kid gets attacked occasionally too" memes ...
indeed.or that Occupy was targeted. I do think there is a lot to the argument that folks are targeted for class more than anything else. But we've got clear evidence on video many times over that blacks are being disproportionally attacked.
I don't think we should minimize that. But thank you for the comment - I know you were sincere.
I'm glad she finally got out from under the false charges.
It is obviously worse for minorities and I wouldn't be surprised knowing my daughter if she gave the cops a bit of attitude but some cops will screw around with anyone who irritates them in the slightest, they will cut whites more slack than blacks but the hammer can come down on anyone.
The funny thing is we knew the local DA personally through school functions, he had a daughter in the same class as our daughter yet even that level of connectedness didn't help my child avoid a really nasty incident. I can only imagine how hard and frustrating it is for those who have it worse.
Wouldn't have called cops if the kids were white. But we don't have a race problem in America.

Look, a nineteen year old woman named Tatiana Rhodes hosted this event in conjunction with Twinzz Productions. Either she hired them or she "is" the company - I don't know. Apparently, money was collected under the name of Twinzz Productions, and teens who saw the instagram ad had an expectation of swimming. Unfortunately, Miss Rhodes and/or Twinzz Productions had no right to invite that many people to the pool. Her guest limit was 20 people with a deposit, or just two people with no deposit. (This is very much like most other pool associations.)
So, unfortunately, these teens really didn't have a right to be there, but they came with the understanding that they would have access to the pool, which is why "some" of them got belligerent, started arguing with the lifeguards and the lone security person, and then began jumping the fence.
Of course, the residents of Craig Ranch know that these teens shouldn't be there because the rules are simple: two guests or up to twenty guests with a hefty deposit. They hear arguing, and they see teens jumping the fence.
When the crowd couldn't be controlled, some called the cops, apparently. Some also called the cops over the fight started by the behavior of two white women.
It was a very nasty situation, but I would not say that it was wrong to call the cops. You can't expect lifeguards to handle this situation. 
sure those idiot adults escalated the situation, a fact the you fail to mention...not a surprise.
And the Dime Piece thing - that's used on DListed.com a great deal. I think Dan Quayles kid used to 'write reports' there! 
Where is the soul of this nation? 
They can be quite threatening...
