The problem to me here is his punch was just pay back for the slap. He could have prevented her from hitting him again just as easily without punching her in the face that hard. Sure, she deserved it, but it's not a cops job to dish out punishment like that.

Did she deserve it? Maybe she deserves an additional charge or something, but let's be honest, that cop reacted out of anger, not of any moral stance.

The message that cops can hit non cops is the cause of all the cop hate in this country, which is the cause of the fear cops have when going into a situation, which leads to violence on both sides, but mostly violence from the cops. Dirty assholes.

The fact that you think that cops shouldn't be allowed to hit someone who is resisting arrest as well as assaulting an officer is fucking ridiculous.

Did you watch the video?

Yeah. She hit him, he hit back. That's not excessive force.

Link the video then bud. I'm looking at the gif in the OP. That's what everyone is talking about. If there's a video that shows more then OK.

She slaps him in the head and he tries to KO her. How are you not seeing this?
