Cop punches girl in the face. What's your take?

See video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UatHtkJY3kc

What do you think of this whole situation?

My opnion is that he did it in self defense. End of story. She didn't only resist arrest, sheand her friend ganged up on him. That's what you get when you hit a cop, or indeed, hit anybody. Expect to get hit back.

Act like a lady and you will get treated like one.

Well, things happen when you resist arrest. I personally don't have any sympathy. If it was an unjust arrest you can handle those matters civilly in court.

She deserved it and most of those people just sitting there watching should be charged for not helping the officer.

It was a cheap shot. I would of loved to see him hit a man his size or better yet, twice his size.

self defence my ass, complete over-reaction by the cop.

LOL. Don't mess with cops, ever. They're ******** but they have all the power in any situation. I've learned to just do whatever they say because no matter how unfair it is, it will be worse if you don't fully cooperate. Hell, you could be cooperating and they think you're not. My buddy got in a fight in high school and was sitting on the ground handcuffed and the cop told him to stand up. How the hell do you stand up from having your butt on the ground and your hands cuffed behind your back? The cop got real pissed when he didn't magically levitate from my ass to his feet and dislocated his shoulder.

Punch was justified.

In fact, I highly doubt the officer would have wanted any help. He would have sent any one away who interfered in the situation

Good. I would've thrown in some extra ones as well and also to the woman under arrest.

She deserved it but what is jaywalking?

Girl was all unruly, usually I'm the first one call foul on cops because they should be held to a higher standard but that girl was just fighting at every step of the way.

Surprised she didn't get tazed seeing how that seems to be the usual response these days.

I think he was too lenient. She deserved more than just a punch. Too bad he didn't have a Taser.

That's what you get for retaliating violently at the law...

Pow right in the kisser.

aren't cops suppose to have ataser on all times when they are on duty??

Quite obvious he got angry. He didn't do it to subdue her, he did it because he was pissed off. He should be, atleast suspended (no pay) and at worst fired.

Isn't this like the third topic on this, or are there just a lot of cops punching women in the face lately?GrandJury

yeah its becoming a bad habbit.

She was wrong but she didn't deserve that. It doesn't take a genius to realize that he could've handled that in a better manner.

lol! Many people online will only say otherwise just because they enjoy seeing a black girl taking a punch(probably had a bad loud mouth black girl experience). :P

Why was the cop in her kitchen anyway? :PGallion-Beast

Keep your hands off of an officer and he'll keep his fist out your mouth.clayron

He could have done a lot worse (pulled out his weapon or used a baton) and still been within the bounds of the law. She got off lucky with that punch. It was completely justified and more than deserved.

I don't see how that punch was deserve in fact everytime i watch that vid it pisses me off, its not like she was trying to kill him, she was upset and all i saw her do was she kept shoving the cop and his proper response should have been to just grab her hands and handcuff her, not punch her square in the face. None of you guys would be saying she deserve it if it was someone you knew so get over yourselves also did you guys know the girl was underage she was 17, so if you guys feel cops have the right to beat own 17 yr old girls then you just gotta love America

The officer didn't try to kill her either; he just fended off her assault. You're aware that police officers are allowed to use even deadly force to protect themselves from physical assault, right? He went much easier on her than he could have. And if this was my sister or a girl I knew, I would STILL not be taking her side. I would tell her very simply..."don't assault a police offer, idiot." I mean, come on. That's just common sense.....or as it turns out, not so common.

there should be more cop punching in the world

Why is that?

Or, maybe less resisting arrest and less interfering with arrests.
