Again, you are still trying to put the blame onto the young woman, not the officer.

I’m sure that is very appealing to the sin nature of the officer, but regardless of what she said or did not say to the officer, she is not responsible for his behavior.

Anything she said or did prior to his commission of battery is irrelevant. *He* decided to commit battery.

No conservative should make excuses for a man who punches a woman. Let the progressives defend women-beaters.

If she was an agitator trying to cause a riot and antagonize the police then she should count herself lucky.

And conservatives consider all the facts and are capable of seeing through things like string theory to reach the proper conclusions.

She was taunting them -- start at that.

While I generally agree with you on this thread, this statement is too far. There are times when it is acceptable to punch a woman; incidents such as the one where a goup of teen-aged women decided to beat some other woman up, filming it, and posting it on facebook would be one such instance (during the beating, I mean)... to claim otherwise is to claim that a man cannot "be the hero" in this sort of situation.

Also this mode of thought invites the horrid, self-devaluing principle of non-violence at any cost. IOW, it is the action of refuting that you have a right to defend your own life; this philosophy is absolutely destructive to society.
