Yeah, I assumed there was more to the story.

The cop was ineffective when he first got there and failed to restrain the guy who was in the process of damaging private property. Easy for the Police to defend that escalation. Girl got involved from behind while taking the guy down. Very vulnerable position for the cop.

The final throw-down was excessive and unnecessary, which is probably why that is the only thing shown in the first GIF clip.

[brandon]

Meh... a bunch of hood rats were brawling in the street and out of control. The cops were way out numbered. I don't really know if I can blame the cops for the response.

If you don't want to get pushed over by a cop, then don't assault someone in public. Is that really too much to ask?

That video just shows that crowds are just as violent and unthinking as the Police. The cop who is hitting the guy with the stick is the first to run and get away. The cop who had stopped him is the one that gets beat down. Just like it happens the other way around. Generally the thugs are the first to run away, and it's relatively innocent people who get beat on when the Police come.

She is lucky that is all that happened ... The officer, or another officer, could have justifiably shot her with tazer, or gun ... She got pepper sprayed, because the officer used the most effective method of neutralizing the situation.

If he had shot her, I'd be hanging with the cop haters on this one, and calling it excessive.

Fair enough...mob mentality and all that. Maybe the video choice was a bad one for this particular analogy.

Regardless of what was going on in the OP video before hand, he should have kept his composure(professionalism). I watched the video, am LE trained and experienced, and everything goes out the window(imho) when you do what he did to her. There were several different ways to handle taking her down(if warranted)-and grabbing someone at least 125lbs lighter than you by the belt loop, and then slamming them into the ground is not one of them. The investigations always say "they followed all proper procedure" in the injury/death/murder of Joe Public...these families need to start demanding to see where in their training they are told to behave like this. I assure you every LE manual I had to abide by harped on defusing the situation as quickly as possible-I'm sure others do as well.



This video shows the definition of who should not be a cop, and what not to do if you are. The cop is lucky all he had to endure was the disapproving boos of the crowd.*









*(DHS monitors...I really think the bitch got what she deserved, how dare she challenge the State like she did.

No it's not okay to shoot someone because they touched you. Yes, it is okay to use a modicum of physical force when dealing with a group of violent angry criminals, like we saw in this video.

[belian78]

No it's not ok to repeatedly beat people with batons and spray them with pepper spray when they are of no threat to you. IMO in that vid, yes there was something going on in that video but I couldnt really tell from watching it 3 times. What I could clearly see was that PIG beating that man repeatedly for not getting all the way on the ground. Then I see that PIG reapeatedly beat that girl chasing her around beating her. Then I see the PIG violently throw her to the ground causing her to hit her head hard on the pavement.

[brandon]

oh no poor babies. I bet they will have a couple black and blues on their thighs tomorrow! Oh heavens the poor little prince and princess have a booboo.

Perhaps we can institute a "hands-off" policy where cops can only use their words to try and detain violent criminals?

Absolutely agree. He lost his temper and acted out of anger when pulling her and throwing her down. Not professional at all. As a matter of fact, the way he did that proved that he was not threatened by her at that point, and he was treating her like a child.

So Brando, you justify that "touching" a cop results in a beating and physical assault? THEN you poke fun at the pain and suffering the victims will go through as minimal?! Have you EVER been hit with an assault stick? I don't think so, otherwise you wouldn't cock off so easily. Why don't you cock off and poke fun at the cop for being lightly touched by a female and then laugh at him for putting some hand lotion on where she touched him? Oh poor cop. Try hitting yourself on the knee joint and get back to us.... video it if you can and post it

[azxd]

Still denying that the officers would not be there if not for the stupid violent act of others ?

Typical !!!

[brandon]

So Brando, you justify that "touching" a cop results in a beating and physical assault?

No. I was saying that if you are willing to assault someone in public, in front of the police, then you should expect to be taken down with force. It is necessary for police officers to use force when attempting to intervene in an ongoing assault and arrest a highly emotional violent criminal. If the police officer didn't use enough force he risked losing control of the subjects and putting everyone in the situation at greater risk.

If this person were a non-violent criminal I would completely agree with you all, but that's not the case.

[phill4paul]

Except she wasn't. After getting beat with the billy club and maced blind into tears she wasn't even able to resist him dragging her by her pants and slamming her face first into the ground. Any threat she had been was passed and his actions were excessive.

[PierzStyx]

Perhaps we can institute a "hands-off" policy where cops can only use their words to try and detain violent criminals?

Violence is only acceptable as an action of last resort against a violent individual, and then only enough to subdue them. As soon as they stop being a threat, violence is no longer justified. Excessive force is defined as force that goes beyond the threshold needed to subdue the violent criminal. That line is not a minimum, but a maximum. The fact that he used a weapon on her when she didn't have one and had not done any harm to him meant he went over the line. He used excessive force against her not just there but from then on out. Police have to be bound to the laws and strictly punished when they step outside of them, even in the slightest. They are subject to the law, not the law itself.

The woman in the green shirt was doing the attacking. The man hit the woman in the green shirt. The cops pull the man and the woman in the green shirt away then push the man to the ground. The woman in the red shirt comes over as if to say "Leave my man alone. He was just protecting me." Cop beats up the victim. Go back and watch it again.

I'm not someone to rush to condemn cops, but I really don't see why he did that. Yes she needed to be detained, but not like that.

[thequietkid10]

That being said I don't fault the cop for cuffing the guy or macing the girl. It's not the cops job to assign fault, he's not going to stand there for five minutes trying to sort of the parties in this fight. It's the cops job to maintain order and that is done by securing the participants in this fight. In a violent situation you don't have time to sort out who is the bad guy and who is the good guy, that's what the legal system is for.

All the cop knows is that there is a fight it's his job to break it up, and this girl whom he knows nothing about (motives, mental state, weapons available, morals) is distracting him while he is trying to restrain one of the participants in the fight.

[presence]

[PierzStyx]

but cops are also trained to be able to discern a threat and who isn't. The fact that she steps far back from him should make it obvious she wasn't a threat. I could see one hit. It would have been defensive reflex. But to keep beating her? That is excessive force. There is a cop that con no longer tell teh difference between who si a threat and who isn't. and that just makes him a danger to society.
