NYC cops rip 1 year old child from mother's arms..(warning: hard to watch)

CNN description of event:
CNN link:
https://www.cnn.com/2018/12/10/us/nypd-mother-child-video/index.html
Happened on Friday, Dec 7..........

With a crowd of onlookers gathered around, New York Police officers encircle a woman and her child on the ground.
One officer reaches down and begins to pull. The officer yanks harder, and harder, and the woman's cries become louder.
"You're hurting my son! You're hurting my son!" she yells.
A tug of war ensues, and as noise from the horrified crowd builds, an officer brandishes a yellow stun gun and begins to point it around the room, a government welfare office in Brookly

The stunning and hectic scene, captured on video and posted to Facebook, ends with the woman in handcuffs escorted from the scene -- and her 1-year-old son elsewhere........riversedge also posted this earlier today (5:38pm ET) in general discussion at this link

They think they can do this at the Mexican Border its now okay for NYC? I hope the Mayor and the Police Department are sued so bad, they will never allow this again.

You can practically hear her squeal with excitement. It's adorable. Scary, but adorable.
