What scares me is how reddit sees the way this woman is behaving, clearly she has gone through and will continue to go through life thinking she can get away with whatever she wants, and when she finds out there's consequences to her actions this website automatically sympathizes with her. It scares me, because this is the way the world is headed, and I think it's going to cause a lot of psychological fuckery for the fairer half of the poipulation.

You guys really have to look at police training and expand your thought process past “the cop is obviously always wrong.” Should he have let her continue to hit him? Should they have stopped pushed her face into the ground to cuff her? It’s like people don’t realize that you need control over someone who is acting belligerent one way or the other for your and others safety.

They were getting her to a place where they could. You wanna bend down to cuff someone in a crowd of people who you don’t know if they’re as hostile as she is? Did she assault another fan before that? Was there anyone else being restrained? And it was one punch to the face, he didn’t beat her.

I don't think that's how police are trained lol. "Remember, if a drunk person slaps you in the face, DON'T hit them back. Kindly ask them to stop. If that doesn't work see if you can gently grab their hands. Remember, don't do it to hard or you may leave a bruise! A judge will take care of it later."

She was charged. With a fist.

She'll likely be charged the other way too.

It's up to a human being attacked to naturally react.

u/Eliensiis Nov 05 '17

I guess naturally reacting is part of police training

u/drettly Nov 05 '17

It's a part of human existing.

u/JustSomeRandomGuy97 Nov 05 '17

Just cause it's an instinct doesn't make it morally right.

u/[deleted] Nov 05 '17

It’s actually probably training, a lot of stations use force +1.

u/drettly Nov 05 '17

It's morally wrong to allow yourself to get assaulted though.

What the fuck it was still a knockout punch for a slap. Thats not the cops decision to make. Cop should get assault charge too

if a woman slaps you, and your natural reaction is to punch her back, you need to get some help.

u/drettly Nov 06 '17

What do you think my natural reaction should be?

There it is. See reddit as a series of prejudices that it gives a pass to, and this is one of them.

Yeah comments like this are a real problem. He's taking the cops side so you resort to being a child. At some point in you're life your going to have to grow up.
