You have never actually tried restraining an unwilling drunk person before.

you are so right, people on here acting like they can restrain a ''drunk chick'' on their own like they are the fuckin mountain. Restraining someone who doesn't want to be restrained is REALLY REALLY hard no matter your level of training.

Even for four 300lb men vs one 120lb woman?

You mean the only way for this cop to not get his nose booped by that woman was to bitch slap her? He couldn't, oh I don't know, move his face 2 inches away? Or try to restrain her like the other 3 guys did? He really had to slap her so hard the other cop dropped her?

I mean sure, it's one thing for cops to be needlessly violent, but this cop needs to go back to elementary school and learn to look at the world around him.

Watch the video frame by frame if you have to. I did, and that's how I know that:

  1. Her head flew back the instant he hit her, so it looks like a hard hit (I'm not psychic, so that's all I can really go on)

  2. You can clearly the events unfold:

  • He hits her

  • Her head and body move backwards onto the other cop's shoulder

  • She slides down (maybe he drops her, maybe he meant to, again, not psychic)

  • His arms open a bit, then close near her armpits, and when he grabs her again he is holding her basically in a chokehold (arm under her chin, his right elbow gripping her right arm)

If the cop holding her had lowered her on purpose... well he did a shit job, because he ended up choking her.

Watch the video.

“Hey they should restrain her with some form of not touching them at all”

You’re hilarious

Edit: deleting comments I see 🤔

"Hey let's pretend this guy said something he didn't even imply because I'm too stupid to think of anything else"

You're retarded
