At least five high school students in Quakertown, located in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, have now been held in police custody for more than 72 hours following last Friday’s anti-ICE protest. As of this writing, authorities have not publicly clarified how many students remain detained, what specific charges they face, or why juveniles are being held for this length of time.

Their alleged offense: defending themselves after a police chief, not in uniform, physically assaulted students. The police assault has provoked mass outrage in the community and throughout the country. A Change.org petition demanding the resignation of Quakertown Police Chief Scott McElree, who was captured on video choking a young female student, has exceeded 7,800 signatures as of this writing.

    What an embarrassing coward. Bet he gets his bitch ass destroyed by anyone remotely competent he ever trains/rolls with, such weak loser energy on display here.

    [Edit: he’s panicking and going hard (way too hard) cuz he loses all the time - for his brain it’s “hell yeah, finally sinking this choke I’ve been working on!, damn felt easy this time!” Utterly shameful. Kill this man, he is far, far worse than useless. Give this dude an honorary Uvalde Award, if nothing else.]

      I can’t make any sense of this RNC form. His arms aren’t connected at all, his right palm needs to be where the girls left arm is. No hooks, no body triangle. This looks like typical day one BJJ white belt spaz flailing.

        Yeah maybe so, I took some liberties.

        [Edit: as in, half the scenario I’m describing probably happened a buncha years ago and he’s kept his dork coward ass off the mat since lol]
