Because she's refusing. Refusing =/= posing a threat.

How is that not obvious and how the hell do you have 14 upvotes?

She’s hitting that guy in the face. That’s a threat. One of those tramp nails could take his eye out.

They could all drop her, pin her to the stairs, sit on top of her and cuff her, which is a lot more painful than eating a punch, which is a lot more painful than complying and being escorted away.

Jesus Christ.

Why are we jumping to the worst outcome . "they could have just shot her and left her on the stairs"

Or they could do their fucking job like theyre trained and deescalate a situation. At no point should a girl that size ever be thrown to the ground and sat on. Unless your the worlds weakest, most pussy ass cop.

If an officer that size can't control a girl that size, he's needs some serious training.

Watch the video, there were 4 cops restraining her with a reasonable amount of force and she was still able to slap that guy.

Now any one of those cops could easily, using force, control a girl that size. But then you would be in the same situation asking why one cop used so much force. So you have multiple people all using less force than they’re capable of in an effort not to hurt her. But she’s still able to hurt them. Guess what solved it? A swift punch to the face, not deadly, not unreasonable and it immediately solved the problem.

Nothing done here would appease you. Either one guy is a “pussy ass cop” for not restraining her using the force necessary, or 4 cops are pussies for punching the lady, who was not restrained and still able to hit them.

Lol no. 4 cops use necessary force and get a feather of a drunk girl restrained.

It's pathetic that a grown man that size felt the need to punch her.

Tell me, what do you think happens if that situation plays out in public. Two girls are arguing, a guy comes over to break it up. Grabs the girl and she limply slaps him. He punches her in the head and knocks her out.

That dude gets his ass beat and the cops called. That shit is not okay. What the hell is wrong with people and violence.

Like, do you really think 4 cops couldn't control that girl? The fact that she's even able to slap one of them shows they don't have control of that situation. That's fucking amatuer.

4 cops controlled that girl, you see clear as day it in the video. They thought she was controlled, but she was able to smack one. One of them punching her in the face took her from “not controlled” to “controlled”.

Tell me, what do you think happens if that situation plays out in public. Two girls are arguing, a guy comes over to break it up. Grabs the girl and she limply slaps him.

He has no reason to enforce the law, it’s not his job. Now if he was a cop, it’s his job do that. And has every reasonable right to control her until she’s no longer a threat. Guess what? If she can still hit or slap him, she’s still a threat. A deadly threat, no, so he responds with less than deadly force. She smacked, he smacked back, threat neutralized.

I like your point. This image is really hard to debate but i think you pointed something out that is really logical albeit finger pointing but hey. I also like to think, of what if this was a white male? What if it was a black female/male? What if it was a small asian guy wearing a black belt? What if this chick is actually a fucking tie fighter?
