Have we seen the video? Maybe the officer should have let this woman kill her child driving while drunk.

“Resisting arrest = consequences. Do NOT resist arrest.”

When cops can use excessive force they will.

We’re “lost” because this savage ape, supposedly a fellow American, hasn’t the slightest compunction about CRUSHING a woman and in front of her kid. In the recent past no cop could have done this and escaped disgust and derision and shunning.

not only because Keith was resisting arrest, but because she'd been driving around with her daughter while clearly drunk.

So the officer is authorized to administer punishment on the spot. Does the judge now take into account "punishment already administered," when he is levying her DUI etc penalties?

Excuse me, ma’am. You were driving drunk. May I please arrest you? No? Well, OK, have a nice day.

When I was in high school it seems that all the guys who were picked on became cops.

So we have two sins here: the cop’s escalatino of force, and the DUI mother.

No one wins, this time.

And I’m with Gaffer: HuffingtonCompost doesn’t get my hit.

This is exactly what the folks over at HuffPo long for: bigger and more powerful government. Here it is in action. Are the complaining or celebrating?

These things make me glad we have the sheriff here that we have. This stuff doesn’t happen here much and when it does, even if there is no outcry a cop will be looking for another job. Our sheriff is a Constitutional sheriff in association with other such. I don’t know how extensive the organization is but there are are several of these fellows in Florida. The sheriff in this county also rides herd on the local city and town police forces. A couple of years ago there were two dogs shot in a month followed by two officers deciding to quit their jobs. It hasn’t happened since.

I'm glad she didn't get to endanger herself, her daughter, or innocents by continuing to drive drunk.

How it was done is open to interpretation and improvement.

So what? Are American citizens brutally slammed into the pavement and their lives threatened because they aren’t cooperative with a cop? She was drunk and mouthy, not accused of murder.

Cops like this need to be fired, charged with assault, and punished.

Or maybe we just long for the Third Reich all over again. The cop is criminal.

The younger cops worry me because they’ve been brought up in schools of indoctrination and God-less living.

It looks bad because she is a chubby, obviously intoxicated, out of shape female,she is not cussing and making any threatening moves, she doesn’t have a weapon and she is with her kid.
The office instead of using his strength to cuff her chose to slam her on the ground?

Luke 3:14 Likewise the soldiers asked him, saying, “And what shall we do?”

So he said to them, “Do not intimidate anyone or accuse falsely, and be content with your wages.”

The bible makes no distinction between cops and soldiers. John the Baptist’s one statement says a lot about a chronic problem.

I'm going to be repeating this a lot I think.
