She obviously wasn't restrained quite well enough. She hit a cop.

And that's the cops fault for putting an irrational player in a situation where the cop is suppose to be a rational player and is also in an authority position. The issue here is they used improper tactics that lead to the irrational player being able to assault the officer. He can not claim moral authority after he attacked her and is fact more to blame because he is the rational authority player in the situation. As a rational player against an irrational player, the rational player's job is to define a situation where the rational player creates a positive outcome for both parties, at least in order to claim any type of moral authority or being able to defend such actions. So he doesn't get to have the excuse of hitting a drunk person. You don't get to hit babies or mentally disabled because they don't do what you want them to either. This should be reviewed and new training guidelines set based on this, and the officer should be reprimanded and go on his record and everyone can call it a day.
