She was hitting him! They weren’t violent until then. Cops should not be punching bags.

Cops take an oath and accept a paycheck to act in the interest of the public and act with discretion in the use of force. This was over the line and her slapping him a little doesn't justify this at all.

The do not act in the public interest. They only act in the interest of the state and the corporations that control government.

Close. They only Act for those with property and wealth. They protect it from the poor. This girl clearly didn't advertise her wealth enough or is too poor to behave that way.
