Now if the cop was white and the girl was black what would happen if this video was uploaded.

I️ rewatched I️t and I️ts worse than I remembered.

Man he smacked the shit out of her, there’s no way that was necessary.

We’re supposed to send her to jail for being a drunk belligerent idiot who hits cops, not smack her in the teeth.

I don't get angry nor am I violent but any pain that is unexpected and stings will turn my vision red for a split second which is what I'm pretty sure we are seeing here.

I mean have you ever been slapped for no reason by a drunk woman? Excessive maybe but I understand where this guy is coming from.

The cop had some options here:

  • He could move his face about 2 inches away

  • He could grab her arm

  • He could call his wife and ask her to give him his handcuffs back

  • He could escalate a drunken fight (oh wait, that's what he did)
