Clearly just another officer acting in self-defense

The woman in the red shirt comes over as if to say "Leave my man alone. He was just protecting me."

Which is high on the list of dangerous situations that cops train for... domestic disturbance calls especially.

I have a strong hunch that I'll be gunned down for attacking a cop that did something like this to a loved one.

So because a the man hit another woman in the door the third woman deserves to be clubbed, pepper sprayed and slammed into the ground? WTF? I didn't see the women in the red shirt hit anybody. 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.

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.
