Stuff like this is the reason why people are so angry with law enforcement right now. They need more oversight and need to be held accountable far more than they are right now, instead of having officials sweep everything under the rug and letting them off the hook. The people want reform, and police unions / "tough on crime" politicians have blocked such for decades now. It's time that stopped.

Thats perfectly justified force . She resisted and was taken to the ground for her efforts.  She actually continues to resist.  

Are you freakin joking me? No, it wasn't. Yeah maybe she had to be told several times, which is stupid of her to push like that, but he went right after her and escalated immediately for no good reason. He asked her to stand up then immediately grabbed her and got violent.

I'm sorry, but what world are you living in? One where any little issue justifies him violently subduing her? She was not a threat. What ever happened to being civil and working with people here? This is why minorities are fed up. They are treated like people in occupied territory.

I understand you are speaking from emotion ,but its not the facts.    Resistance to arrest isnt going to be a pretty sight.  He didn't go wacking her with his asp baton or even draw his taser.  He simply placed her butt on the ground.    You're right, it seems like a "little issue" which begs the question why act stupid?

Yeah, ok MK. Me and you clearly have very different views on police using any kind of force, including what he did to that woman, so we will have to agree to disagree. Suffice to say, it is views like yours (apparently)  on police use of force that have gotten us to this place where the public is sick of police overreaching and always being let off the hook.
