frazer, read down
look, she should have been arrested. yes she had no right to but in. but a punch to the face is completely uncalled for. They carry tazers and pepper spray for a reason. A punch is not an option in this instance. Pull the freakin tazer. Can u really watch that vid and tell me he did the right thing? Thats rediculous! She NEVER swung at him. A simple push is NOT a valid reason to punch a, what 17 yo female in the face. This was a blatenet use of excessive force.
Look, for those who dont know, Im a professional firefighter. I work hand in hand with police on a regular basis. I can tell u there are a large variety of ways to subdue the suspect without a punch. We had a guy on pcp get violent with us after he wrecked/totaled his brand new caddy cts-v

cry

. He was completely out of it untill we had him in the back of the ambo. then he woke up and got highly violent. 30 seconds and 2 of us were able to control him. WITHOUT A PUNCH!! anybody who knows what PCP is knows how strong and violent these guys get. the cop never had to interfere. There are ways to contorl without needing to punch.
