Just out of curiosity, what should a police officer do when someone who is under arrest refuses to submit and continues to physically resist?
Shirt should go up, but pants should go down.
What do I win?
The main point I’m trying to make is that was it really necessary to get to the point of making an arrest over 50c?
Could the situation have been diffused more effectively? We don’t know, it doesn’t seem as though any more video is available. There’s just many times where cops excite a situation vs. just calmly talking through it and de-escalating things. I’ve seen it many times and I believe this is an area of training that is lacking.
I really doubt, that at any time, this woman was considered much of a threat. So even saying, “I’ll break your arm” is just beyond what I think our public servants should be saying or doing.
I’m pro LEO’s and get how dangerous their job can be, but they’re also not military dealing with a combative enemy on a battlefield.
