Are you serious?? She was a female and handcuffed. He assaulted her. And his thug buddies, part of the blue wall of silence, didn’t even stop him. He should be kicked off the force together with those other losers there and their supervisors. The militarization of peace officers in this country is chilling and frightening. NOTHING she said justifies the actions of this monster.

From what I see in the video, the other police officers were not within distance to either intervene or escalate the situation.

I saw an officer using unnecessary force to compel a subject in custody to sit down. I saw the subject react with a kick in response. That kick did not present a serious risk of harm to the officer. The kick presented more as a social expression of annoyance or indignation rather than a concerted effort to inflict harm. The officer's subsequent response was disgusting, brutal and unforgivable.

The militarization of peace officers is indeed chilling and frightening, but keep in mind a very important point of consideration.

Militarized police in the United States are not prepared to operate on an even-force basis. All hardened weapon systems have a soft pink center. They have a plan to ride the tiger.

That is not the same as riding the tiger.

I never commented on the thuggery of the LEO’s. My comment was to the big fat mouth that triggered these animals to beat on her. Teen age girls who bitch, scream and rage against any attempt to admonish them are inciting brutality and need to get a clue.

Yes. I am serious. She needs to get a grip on her attitude. In another context she could have been killed.
Again, get a grip. I said nothing about the cops other than that they behaved brutishly.
Have you ever raised a smart mouthed teen age girl? Cruisin’ for a bruisin’ means something.
By the time the cop’s lawyers are finished with her she will probably explode on the stand. Her belligerence will mitigate damages from a jury, probably down to cost of medical and something for pain and suffering. She will not, however, be considered for a massive judgement.
