Is LITERALLY ANYONE in this thread saying that the woman is in the right?

You're just pulling a bullshit straw man out of your ass.

The point a lot of people are making is that it is an excessive and unnecessary response by the cop

I'm saying it wasn't unnecessary. What she did could have seriously injured him. The ideal thing to do would be to put her down and handcuff her properly, but I don't fault the officer for reaching the way he did. It seems to me that if this wasn't a woman, nobody in this thread would be rushing to call this brutality.

So now your argument is a hypothetical "if it wasn't a woman..." stance...brilliant

Did you miss the part where I said the action wasn't unnecessary? That's the more important bit.
