The Faceless Master said:so, we both agree that she escalated the situation and he defused the situation?
She shouldnt have grabbed the officer. Ive said that a million fucking times. Likewise he never should have slapped her and than punched her. It was excessive, unnecessary, and escalated the situation further than it needed to be. And his method of restraining her was unnecessary and excessive.
This entire thread has been an exercise of you making excuses for what is clear as day an unnecessary use of physical force by the police officer.
Youve come up with a million new rationalizations. From calling an obvious slap as a swat, to ignoring that he cold cocked her before even trying to restrain her. Its laughable to continue reading your pathetic attempts to justify this. At this point its clear your out to prove your pre-determined conclusion, not to assess the evidence and arguments and draw from there.
And its weird cause i'm not even one of those who thinks the officer should be arrested or kicked off the force. I think the guy made a very bad judgement call and let his anger get the best of him which contributed to handling a situation improperly. Yet people like you who are mouthpieces of excuses for cops bad behavior are the reason things never change in society. You dont better a wrong by just throwing up your hands and going "welp thats the way of things."
