June 5, 201313 yr Hellbird, if what they did wasn't a big deal, how come they're on the unemployment line today? Just throwing this out there, maybe they lost their job due to the "racial tension" mentioned among this community and the only way to help ease that is to fire these two officers. Not saying they were in the right or wrong that is not for me to decide. We have no idea the rest of the story. Simply stating they were wrong because they lost their job is assuming a lot. The lady clearly resisted arrest and they used force to cuff her. I would guess there is more we don't know than we know.

As to the racial tension, that could be, although I doubt the cops would just sit back and take it had that been the real reason.
June 5, 201313 yr So what are police supposed to do vs. a combative female, in your opinion? Restrain her not assault her. When I was in college I worked in a psych ward and I was able to restrain men and women much larger than this without the excessive force used. I didn't say play patty cake with them. But punching kicking slamming a head or pulling hair are not restraining techniques they are offensive techniques designed to cause harm not restrain. If their lives were in danger I would understand . But if these officers really were that intimidated by her again they are in the wrong line of work to begin with.

You said no one should hit a woman. If a woman is actively fighting a police officer you think they should just restrain her? I'm not talking about this specific incident.
June 5, 201313 yr They used extremely excessive force. As to the racial tension, that could be, although I doubt the cops would just sit back and take it had that been the real reason. Oh please!!! Extremely excessive force?!?!?! You've got to be kidding me!!! The woman wasn't hit, kicked, or punched. You all sound like a bunch of pansies lol. Extremely excessive.....Do us a favor and lock your doors and stay inside because apparently if you go outside and get bit by a mosquito, well shoot, that would be extremely horrible.
June 5, 201313 yr Just so I'm clear, if a police officer tells someone to be quiet and they keep talking, you'd be okay with them knocking them out? I mean you said if you don't obey, you don't care if they end up hurt. If an officer is trying to arrest me and I resist then go for it. You do know there is a recourse you can take if you think you were handled excessiveely don't you? Lawyers love those kind of cases. So let me toss this out there.......what should the officers of done? The woman clearlly wasn't allowing them to cuff her, what would you have done? Don't tell me yoou would of sat there and asked her pretty please with sugar on top.

They can do no wrong in your eyes. As to your scenario, they should've acted like law enforcement officers and handcuffed her. She was resisting, she wasn't being physical or touching them. Together two grown men should've fairly easily been able to restrain her enough to slap handcuffs on her.

Unless she's Rhonda rousey most men and without a doubt two men should be able to restrain an unarmed average size woman without hitting her. I didn't know a badge all of a sudden made it right to hit a woman. A woman could punch me 3 times in the face I'm not swinging on her .

Extremely excessive.....Do us a favor and lock your doors and stay inside because apparently if you go outside and get bit by a mosquito, well shoot, that would be extremely horrible. So not wanting to assault a woman makes me a pansy. That's nice to know. I respect all cops , but expect all cops to be held to the same standard as the rest of us. A badge doesn't change that for me.

Together two grown men should've fairly easily been able to restrain her enough to slap handcuffs on her. And no matter what in your eyes police officers are always in the wrong, that's all I need to know about you. Again show me where taking a person resisting to the ground is wrong, it's actually what your trained to do. Don't resist in the first place, that entire concept seems to escape you and that is sad.

This is all I need to know about you and the reason so many of you have no clue. You make things up because your story is so weak. You claimed the officers punched and kicked her. Way to fabricate there my friend. Nuff said, you just post your case
June 6, 201313 yr wow you're a real man, you'll let a woman hit you multiple times. Good for you. A real man doesn't assault a woman yes.

Way to fabricate there my friend. Nuff said, you just post your case I never said these cops punched anyone. Was using examples. My story isn't weak the cops are fired. You are defending cops who are already fired who beat a woman.
June 6, 201313 yr Nuff said, you just post your case I don't know what these means. Only case I'm making is grown men shouldn't use excessive force on women. If your fine with excessive force on a woman just for back talk then we are worlds apart.
