However many issues she had, the cops are way too quick to handcuff people.
Opinions are like ---- noses ----.
Everybody's got one.
I think not handcuffing some nut-cases has cost a few LEOs their lives.
Let's just list that under "differences of opinion."
Resist arrest and pay the consequences. The "reason" for it is irrelevant.
Perhaps they should have called in one of their staff counselors, given her a hug and offered her an overstuffed chair and a cup of Earl Grey to settle her nerves.
Seems to me that these days folks are way too quick to act out and expect society to coddle them afterwards.
The woman threw things (her cell phone for one) at innocent bystanders which struck them. I’d handcuff her too, and I’m not “the cops.”
She was hurting others (in one case, she threw a cell phone which hit a bystander in the face). What were they supposed to do? What would you have done? Let her run amuck in the airport until someone was SERIOUSLY hurt?
So some person who is an emotional train-wreck and whacked out on something should not be retrained when going postal? Please!

On scene witnesses verified she was yelling, screaming, hitting and scratching officers and making every attempt to break loose. She also yelled she was ‘not a terrorist’. I have not heard she had been accused so. Have you?
And they were “too quick”? They should have tazed her, bro. Maybe she would be alive now.
I haven’t seen her tox reports in the paper (I no longer subscribe to the Republick).
