Stendec said:That's a classic case of using NOT ENOUGH force, not excessive force. He really needed to take her to the ground or car and take the fight out of her. OC or a TASER would have been an option. You can't control a situation by letting people squirm and struggle and bleed time out of the fight.
He looks relatively young, I'd wager than any female cop, and any male cop with a couple of years experience would have been a little more dynamic.
But, punching someone in the face usually results in a broken hand, lacerations caused by the hood's teeth, assuming they have any, which of course comes with a copious amount of methdrool, and if you tagged their nose, blood that looks far worse than it actually is. Plus it's always really visible, whereas you can do a lot of things with elbows and knees that don't attract as much attention.

cutiger said:The officer was outnumbered and was being attacked. He did the right thing. Did I hear her call him certain racial slur I will not repeat. You know the one I'm talking about. I probably would have punched her again for that.
Yup, get that camera on you and you start double guessing yourself and worry if your actions will be considered justified. The video can be good or bad. Sometimes the video doesn't show the full story or the officer's perspective. The officer sees something and reacts appropriately to it, but it isn't obvious on the video what happened and the officer is hung out to dry.rwo978 said:Wow, I actually agree with you. However, I think he was being "gun shy" to do anything with all the people videotaping, worried about liability, getting sued.

They put him in the restroom, took his shirt off, handcuffed behind the back, pour water on him, the cop pulled out his .38 in one hand, and slap the perp over and over for around 2 hrs, and got his confession of all the home address of his friends. Within less than a day, everyone was caught.
Sometimes less human right for criminals is a good thing.

1. Where was back up
2. Why isn't that officer more equipped with tazer and oc spray.

RJ* said:And you say this like it's a good thing? You're happy that in your country the police torture suspects?
What when the suspect names the neighbor or cousin he doesn't like, instead of his real friends? We all know the #1 reason torture doesn't work... it makes people say what they think the torturer wants to hear, instead of the truth.
Remind me to never ever visit Indonesia.
