Why do we go so far out of our way to remove the irresponsible actions of the people these days. You don’t hit a cop. Period. Even if you could come up with a million subtle differences as to how the cop could have acted differently. Doesn’t matter. Don’t hit a cop. This is 100% deserved and acceptable.
If the world continues to fill with pussies who want the police force to carry teddie bears and bubbles then people will stop becoming cops (already happening). Then you will blame cops again for not doing enough after we neutered all of them.
Cops have a difficult job where they have to make decisions quickly and deliberately. If you believe that a cop shouldn’t punch you in the face, the most effective way to accomplish that is to stay off their radar. Period.
Suggesting that police can hit you back means that I want to live in a police state? That’s kind of a leap don’t you think. I don’t think cops should just go around slugging folks. But if you hit a cop in the head. Expect to get hit back. That’s just a decent and understandable rule to live by. An even better rule... don’t put yourself in a situation where a cop is carrying you against your will.

I'd expect that cop to grab my arm and restrain me so I wouldn't be able to hit him again.
Did she deserve that? Yes.
Does that make it ok? No.
