I am agnostic on the cop thing.
Don’t particularly like ‘em. Also I don’t hate them.
For the guys who want to be a guardian & protect the public from evil, I am grateful for the service.
For the guys who were bullies in school and want to continue on in adult life ... f ‘em. Bouncer is probably a more appropriate career choice.
I watched the video.
I can’t see where the officer’s strikes landed. Anyone marginally trained in combat will not strike the skull with bare knuckles. I think that the strikes were directed to the nape of the neck, which is full of non-lethal pressure points. (Forget about the Spock Chop. It’s BS)

And full of lethal points. Well under ten pounds is all that is required for a C3-C4 fracture. Punches like those expended by the officer could well be fatal and in the video compelled the other officer to raise his had to stop him.

Note then before he throws the two punches, her feet are moving. After, they immediatly stop.

He definately hit her.
