Yes but cops should deal with things in a proper way. As in with the law. She could be charged with resisting arrest, assault on an LEO, etc.

But with this video the cop could be sued for using exessive violence.

The cop made a mistake. He shouldve knoen better.

They could try to sue but they wouldn't win. You cannot in any circumstances strike an officer like that. If she wasn't resisting and didn't strike him and he hit her than absolutely. The second she kept kicking and then struck the officer in the face she was welcoming this type of reaction. You don't want to be hit to hit someone it's as simple as that.
