What do you guys think about this?

He could have subdued her without punching her in the face he proved that after he did it. Now he's in alot of hot water.

She was no longer putting up much resistance after the punch. Cop is not going to take that be it a woman or man she is lucky all it was, was a punch.

 

[KJJ]

She didn't just touch him, she pushed him. She pushed him while he was trying to do his job and subdue the other woman. I didn't see anything in that video to justify the woman pushing him or the other woman to fight being arrested. Those two ladies turned a simple jay walking citation into something bigger.

Maybe he pushed her which caused her to push him. Who knows what happened before the video started rolling. It had already turned into a situation by the time the video came on. The cop not only punched a woman in the face in front of a crowed with a video camera rolling but he punched a black woman. You don't think he regrets the situation now? If I were in his shoes I would have done everything I could to restrain her without throwing a punch.

He grabbed her arms and subdued her after he punched her you don't think he could have done that before he threw that punch? She was unarmed and she grabbed at him and he lost control now his life has been turned upside down. All I know is he threw the first punch and it connected to a young woman's face and now this cop is in alot of trouble. If he did the right thing the video wouldn't be all over the news and no one would be talking about it.

OK? Are they more important than everyone else?

 

[Rynie]

She assaulted a police officer in the line of duty and paid with her face. The race card can't be far behind.

OF COURSE IT WILL BE! (no racist)

What does being a black woman have to do with anything?

I'm sure she was dazed after he knocked the crap out of her. LOL Now she's going to sue him and he's going to go through an investigation. His life is going to be a living hell now. That punch could cost him his career, millions in a lawsuit and public scrutiny for the rest of his life. When you're a police officer dealing with an unarmed person especially a young woman you have to do everything you can to control the situation without resorting to violence.

Everyone out there has video camera's you have to stay in control and only use violence when it's absolutely necessary. I've seen people grab at police officers and they pepper spray them or taser them then take them to the ground and cuff them. He does all that and everything is fine and dandy instead he's in some deep ****.

Sorry he did nothing wrong and I'm sure that is exactly how it will turn out. Because a cop reacts with force does not make them in the wrong, she should not have laid a hand on that cop she did and he subdued her.

You say there are other things he could have done maybe so one of the things he could have done he did.

Dude there's still racism out there he's a white officer punching a black woman you don't think that will add some fuel to the fire? There's not a situation out there where the race card gets used more than in a situation like this.

No doubt about it, evidently they do not give a rats ars about the police and think they can do and treat the cop anyway they want and the cop is suppose to just take it.

I think some will play it like that, hell they play the race card all the time. However this is not about race it is about a women who thought she could go off on a cop and found out that was not the case. She may pull that BS on her boy friend but that cop had every right to do what he did black or white or hispanic does not mean jack.

All I know is she pushed him first while he was trying to do his job. That deserved a response whether that response was a punch, a taser, mace or a club doesn't matter that much.

Her being black matters, but it shouldn't. Unfortunately someone will raise a fuss about it. There is racism in this world, but I don't see it in this case.

Sure he probably has regrets. That doesn't mean he thinks he did something wrong or the majority of people think he did something wrong. He just regrets he is not in an winnable situation. I think the majority of people think he did the right thing. Unfortunately the minority of people yell the loudest.

I have never been accosted by a cop. Of course I have never back talked a cop, pushed a cop or resisted in any manner. Seems like an easy thing to do, but apparently it isn't. Who knew?

Even if he is exonerated his life will never be the same. I can assure you this is something that's going to change that officers life regardless if there's no criminal charges against him. You can bet that woman is going to sue him this could go on for years. The video never shows what led to that altercation and it will be up to witnesses.

When a cop is dealing with an unarmed person especially a young woman in a jaywalking situation there's going to be consequences for punching them in the face simply because they grabbed at him. She has rights and if witnesses claim he touched her which set her off then the **** he's standing in is going to get alot deeper.

She has rights but those rights do not include laying a hand on a police officer period. All she had to do is what he was asking of her she went off on him as he was dealing with her friend big mistake on her part. Because a cop uses force does not make him in the wrong.

This is odd. Around here, there all kinds of signs to yield to pedestrians and not just at intersections. Very annoying to the point where people think they are empowered or something.

I was driving and some cow standing on the lines in the middle of a busy street starts screaming at me about 'her right of way'. I felt like hitting her ***, if only it wouldn't have dented my car.

I wish they had jay-walking laws enforced around here.

You should have rolled down your window and yelled,

Mooooooooohhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!

On the video she pushed him first but who knows what happened before the video started rolling. He may have grabbed her which led up to it. The way he threw that punch he seems like the aggressive type. That was a serious punch he threw. If someone(male)grabs at me like that I'll knock the crap out of them too but I'm not a cop. A cop has to conduct themselves differently than the rest of us. If they use violence on an unarmed person there better be just cause and I didn't see it in that situation. He could have grabbed her, taken her to the ground and subdued her he's a man she's a young woman. If a woman grabbed at me I'm not going to deck them. He could have severely injured her with that punch. That wasn't just to get her attention that was to do damage.

How do you know he didn't lay a hand on her first? The video doesn't show how it all got started. All I know is it looked REAL bad for a cop to punch a woman in the face for grabbing at them. If she was charging him swinging wildly then I could see it but she was grabbing at his arms. He could have grabbed her turned her around and cuffed her. Say what you will but that cop lost control and now finds himself in some real hot water. That could end up being a very costly punch.

 

[KJJ]

No but anytime a white police officer strikes or shoots a black person the race card always comes up. That's the way our society is and will always be. Had she been an attractive white girl would he have punched her in the face? These are the kind of situations that can cause riots and civil unrest. When you look at the video he could have grabbed her, subdued her and cuffed her case closed!

Well, I hope you have the good sense not to stoop to that level.

Oops. Too late.

 

[KJJ]

Anyone who doesn't agree where I'm coming from on this what would your thoughts be had she struck her head on a car or the payment after he punched her and she died serves her right?
