Does this story have legs for any reason other than it's the first "squirrel story" of this kind?

Just that is is yet one more example of excessive force being used in a totally unnecessary manner.
As in, establishing a pattern.

Saw it the first time you posted it. Is there a reason for posting it again?

Yes.

And it seemed that some had NOT read it.

Not when he is committing per se Defamation. If he is going to take the liberty of attacking someone's true identity, then he has the responsibility to disclose his.

Going back and watching the video now I would say that the squirrel certainly didn't seem to be acting aggressive or rabid to me. It looked to me like someone said, to be looking for a handout of food or lost and looking for a mother surrogate. I would have been cautious of it but not afraid. Also I would have expected no other response from the police. Most of the time police are very narrow minded thinkers, they are taught to think in only one way with a limited number of responses to apply to any situation. I think that is why this story has legs. The old saying, when your only tool is a hammer everything looks like a nail comes to mind.

fyi:

+ insulting or personally attacking other users is not allowed by any member. There is very little tolerance for violations, particular for new members. Reason: Insults lead to retaliation. This often results in a disruption of the board, which dilute the resources of members and the intent of the forum.

+ any form of antagonizing other members is not allowed by non-established members.

+ if you are to be critical of another users ideas or message please do so in a respectful manner. It is possible to discuss your points as to why you feel the way you do, ideally you should include alternate suggestions or acknowledge you have none.

OK but I don't think that was their point. Without knowing, most are going to err on the side of caution. That's all.

Just Google "Squirrels". You will find lots of video with "strange" behavior. Strange sort of defines them.

And while you're at it, look up the definition of "'squirrelly" - then take a wild stab at guessing what animal inspired the word.

Exactly.

So the fact that the officer was called gives it a high probability that PRIVATE CITIZENS felt threatened by this animal, even though a couple tree-hugging dipshit teenagers went Arab League on the situation once the cops arrived and actually used for to stop an animal from inflicting harm.

I don't think this guy is a troll ... I think he's part of the police brotherhood. Why else would somebody believe that because the police are called physical violence on their part is needed.

AF - when are we supposed to call the police?

He wasn't called. He is a School Resource Officer. (bizarre concept). He works at the school. The students knew him by name.

Really.

Though it is perhaps theoretically possible,
1. There is NO RECORDED CASE of humans ever infected with rabies from a squirrel.
2. Squirrels are playful and will chase tails. even of humans. especially if the play has been going on prior.
3. Squirrels that have been fed will beg for more.

Just how does someone with (obviously) no understanding of squirrels define "strange" behavior?
Just Google "Squirrels". You will find lots of video with "strange" behavior. Strange sort of defines them.
Me, I grew up with them.

That's interesting considering that my mom's friend was hospitalized with rabies after being attacked and bitten by an infected squirrel.

Jeez, I really wish I could find a picture of Daniel Stern in Home Alone where he shouts "NEVER"!!!

I see Constituent's alter ego wandered into this thread, LOL
