School Guards Break Child's Arm And Arrest Her For Dropping Cake 
Steve Watson Friday, Sept 28, 2007

School security guards in Palmdale, CA have been caught on camera assaulting
a 16-year-old girl and breaking her arm after she spilled some cake during
lunch and left some crumbs on the floor after cleaning it up.

The incident occurred last week at Knight High School in Palmdale and was
caught on a cell phone camera by another pupil who was then also assaulted
by the security guards.

Watch video of the incident here and here.

The girl, Pleajhai Mervin, told Fox News LA that she was bumped while
queuing for lunch and dropped the cake. After being ordered to clean it up
and then re-clean the spot three times, she attempted to leave the area out
of embarrassment but was jumped on by security who forced her onto a table,
breaking her wrist in the process.

Pleajhai also says that the security guard in the picture yelled "hold still
nappy-head" at her, which at the time she did not know was a racist comment.





In an even more shocking development the security guards later had the
mother of the girl arrested after she sought out an attorney and demanded
that the guard be arrested, telling her that if she wanted the guard
detained then she herself would also be charged with battery after she
allegedly pushed the guard and an assistant principal of the school. She has
also been suspended from her job at another school in the county.

The school expelled Pleajhai for five days before then having her arrested
for battery and for littering (the dropping of the cake).  
Then they had the pupil who captured the video arrested along with his
sister who was merely present at the scene.

A walkout is planned for this morning by some students, after which the
protesters will call for the firing of the main security guard involved.

The incident serves as another unbelievable case in the wave of police
brutality sweeping the country. In recent days we have covered multiple
incidents of this nature and have compiled them into a page which will no
doubt be added to in the months to come.

Commentators have linked the increased cases of brutality with a post
9/11 mentality in America where civil liberties have been totally diminished
and the anointed "authorities" simply consider themselves above the law.

Former Reagan government official Paul Craig Roberts, for instance, has
succinctly described the mentality as having turned "an epidemic of US
police brutality into a pandemic".

The media reports linked above clearly sympathize with the girl and her
mother but only because the girl "fully complied with the guards'  
orders".

What on earth have things come to when children are being physically
assaulted and arrested in schools by huge fat thugs 5 times their size for
"not complying with orders"?

Police and security officials are being trained that it's OK to beat,
torture and taser anyone should they not answer their questions or comply
with their every order.

The "security" and well being of citizens is no longer the concern of these
moronic hired beefbrains who revel in their false positions of power. Ask
yourself, why is the security guy pictured above wearing shades indoors?
Because it is part of the gang mentality of these idiots who think its cool
to put the fear of life into small kids and then break their bones if they
fail to cower like mice when picked upon.

We have been covering the rise of the police state mentality in tandem with
the erosion of liberty for some time now. The incident narrated above
represents a stark evolution. Watch the following clip from around ten years
ago which was featured in Alex Jones' 2004 Film Martial Law: Rise of the
Police State, where police assault and break the arms of peaceful
protestors.

The difference now is that the police and security guards are breaking the
arms of children and tasering students for merely asking questions or for
dropping birthday cake.
