They should've had sex in the bushes, no one sees you there but the trees and woodland creatures.

The posters who are parents will understand the policeman.
The posters who are teenagers will not.
Presumptuous, at best.
The cop was right in his wanting to teach a lesson/scare the kid, yet wrong in his use of power.
To dismiss 'kids will be kids,' and chalk it up to. . ."you must be a kid, or a person without children" is absurd. I can not fully empathize, being a young adult without children, but I can try and understand, being a young adult with several children in my life.
Again, the argument that gets lost is the cop misused his power. Should the kids have known better? Absolutely. But let us not forget being fully alone with the opposite sex and what happened or almost happened.
For crying out loud, an actual officer, with a child - a daughter I might add - has said on several post the cop was wrong.
Conversely, I can see both sides and the old saying 'to each their own' does play a major part in this discussion. Another saying comes to mind as well. . "all bet are off when my kids are involved." I get these ideas, I do. But a line was crossed and the law was broken.
I'm too liberal for my own good at times. But I believe I've been clear in how I feel. No need to go on.
Cheers, folks.
And as I have said several times...where did I say I or all the fathers approve of abuse of power by a Policeman...I said that I and the other parents UNDERSTAND his motivation.

It depends on how young their daughter is, and it's funny how you mention self restraint, if the underage boy had shown some then the father wouldn't need to do anything.
Maybe you should read through this thread again....the posters who are parents are saying they understand his actions (but don't necassrrily approve of them)...and the teens are shouting foul the loudest.

You sure?
Which way did it seem I was going??
Because I am a father of a daughter and a law enforcement officer.

Fact.

What I find most hilarious, is the fact that you and I differ so much ideologically, but we seem to be of the same mind on this thread.
Point being, when you posted "fact," I immediately understood your point, fully knowing your stance on restraint, yet having knowledge of how we were boys.
I KNOW you and I would burn down the state if someone hurt Bear. But if she acted on her own accord, I also know you would handle her 'in house,' and would only involve family if needed.
Yeah, make no mistake, C Lee is right. I UNDERSTAND the father/cop's motivation.
However, he made a mistake in his method of handling it. I have almost let my emotions make my decisions for me, kind of like this, and it would have cost me dearly if I had followed through.
Preaching to the choir. Remember, I'm the one that has to pull you back.
But youre in Athens.....![]()
"Storm. . I'm about to *insert bad idea*."
"I'm leaving now."
You lock it up!!!
Lettuce be reality...I would be the one shutting down your stupid plans.
If I handcuffed some kid for having sex with my daughter and basically held him captive for a bit I would be charged. You can't slap cuffs on someone for having sex with your daughter. You can do the whole "angry dad" thing but you don't handcuff someone. This dudes a cop too and that makes it worse, especially if he used his policing powers.
Classic case of a police officer abusing his powers.
What most of us have been saying all day.
Well played, P.![]()
Here is how I should have originally worded the post.You sure?
I haven't the faintest idea of how you think about anything. I was speaking in general terms for specific demographics. As I have stated above...I admit that I should have worded the statement different to make it more apparent that I was speaking in general terms by using such words as MOST, SOME, MANY, NOT ALL, etc because many but not all of the posters here take most everything that is written quite literally and give no one the benefit of the doubt that what they were saying could be interpreted in several ways. Most if not all, maybe many, look for the worst connotation that a statement could possibly represent and assign it to the poster.Which way did it seem I was going??

I just think it's interesting that the girl is pretty much being overlooked in this scenario. It takes two to have sex.
I'm sorry, I momentarily forgot where I was posting.
Here is how I should have originally worded the post.
Most of the posters who are parents, and particularily most of the posters who are parents of daughters...will most likely be able to understand the frustration and anger that he experienced when he found out his underage daughter was having premarital sex with the boy. Most of these parents of daughters will most likely also understand his motivation in wanting to scare the boy because of what he had done with his underage daughter, but most of these parents of daughters wouldn't approve or recommend for someone on the police dept to abuse thier power and authority by unlawfully restraining the boy who had engaged in premarital sex with his underaged daughter.
Most of the posters who are in thier teens or early twenties will most likey not understand the motivations or feelings of the policeman/father of a 14 year old daughter having underage premarital sex with her boyfriend. Most of the posters who are in thier teens or early twenties on here will most likely empathise with the 15 year old boy. Most of the posters on here in thier teens or early twenties who are in the midst of raging hormones will most likely feel that getting laid at any expense is more important and desirable than trying to understand the anger of a parent whose daughter is having underage premarital sex. Most of the posters on here who are in thier teens or early twenties generaly don't like, trust, or understand adults or authority figures, so it is generally reasonable to assume that they would not understand the policeman/father and instead support the 15 year old boy.

Does clear things up for you?
