They should'a tased the tyke. I hope the kid also gets slapped with an indecent exposure charge and so get a permanent sex offense rap for his record. Kids need to learn to respect ah-thor-a-tuh. Cops -- not so much. They should feel free to taser kids who refuse to wash cops' cars.

On a serious note, this cop makes the case for reviving the punishment of crucifixion. Make a ridiculous arrest, use excessive force or give a ridiculous citation and get publicly crucified. That would be a good first step in police reform in this country -- although drawing and quartering in such cases has a lot going for it as well.

It was on his own property, no harm was done so the police officer had no right to fine the mum.
Take it to court, then sue the police officer for trespassing on private property without probable cause and then sexual offence for perving on a minor.

I suppose we're lucky the kid didn't point it towards the officer and give him the oportunity and excuse that he had a loaded weapon pointed at him, so was justified in shooting the toddler...

Jokes aside, that is pretty low... I bet the officer whips it out on the side of the road when nobody is looking...lol

The alarming number of threads pertaining to police brutality/stupidity has skyrocketed lately here on our beloved ATS.

I have come to the conclusion as im sure many of my fellow ATS members have that its time for a forum regarding the blatant misuse of Police powers in todays society! Anybody else agree?

I think it would be very appropriate, and might start off a national discussion of the subject. Most of these cases seem to get swept under the rug. One certainly doesn't hear much if anything about them on MSCM (main stream commercial media) or NPR, for example Seems that often they show up only in local news or some fairly obscure blog.

There should be a national grassroots movement for a "pee in your yard" day.

Just being funny folks, but it would get the point across.

Ahhh poor kid and parents. $2500? They got special treament. At least they didn't get arrested, dragged around, beaten, tasered or maced!

Reminds me a bit of a story a relative told me. Kids had to use the restroom (urinate) so they were forced to pull over on the side of the highway and let them do their business. Over comes a cop who lectures them about the great outdoors being his office and how when they urinate on it, it's like they are urinating on his office floor. He didn't give them a ticket but as you can imagine, this relative was fairly flabbergasted at the tone and audacity of the law enforcement officer.

Let's see we have FBI, CIA, Dept Homeland Security,, NSA, federal & local law. Now we have the newest of the Gestapo establishment " The Pee Police" And to think there was a time when we all peed in the yard . Glad that kid did'nt do a #2, he may have been tasered and shot multiple times. This cop needs the taste slapped out of his mouth. There's no way in hell they would ever get $2500 out of me for my kid pissing in the yard. Crazy stupid crap this one is.

$2500 for peeing in public. I guess a #2 is $5000? This kid will grow up with an overwhelming desire to defacate in and on police crusiers. I guarantee it.

Ok local news had a pre commercial spot . says charges dropped and officer may be trouble. After they had interview with mayor making "pee-dmont " jokes but I dont think she was happy about this kind of attention. They cut the packet to go to obamas win.

What would have been even better is if the kid just pissed in your cheerios instead. That's a much happier story. Just saying. ~$heopleNation

Just an update on this..

Piedmont officer is fired over public urination ticket

PIEDMONT — A police officer who wrote a $2,500 ticket to a mother on a public urination complaint against her 3-year-old son has been fired, City Manager Jim Crosby said Tuesday.

Prosecutors at the Canadian County district attorney's office declined to pursue the case against the mother, Crosby said.

The officer is appealing the firing. However his boss said....

Crosby said Qualls didn't see the boy urinate in the yard, but reported seeing a teenager in the Warden family lead the boy to a spot in the yard.

Oblein said the ticket given to the mother did not fit the situation. It could have resulted in a fine of up to $2,500, he said.

At least its over for the mom and her kid. Wonder if she'll sue?
