He's in a place of power and has 2 people for backup. Fuck him.
You see a tiny clip that matches your world view: police are bad. And instantly you no longer care about context. This is exactly how MAGA processes information.
Always demand the full picture. Never listen to only one side. And stay cricital of all evidence shown. That is hard, but at least stop downvoting and telling off people that point this out.
And I repeat: this still looks bad. Very much worth investigating what happened. Most likely this cop went out of line. But let's not play judge based on a couple of seconds of contextless video.
Why not? Describe a situation where that behaviour is justified.
There is no context necessary.
~~Most likely~~ this cop went out of line. PERIOD
The woman is cuffed.
What you're looking for is an excuse or explanation why the pig couldn't control himself, acted totally unprofessional and abused his powers.
There is no justification for this and he should be punished.
They have rules and laws to follow too.
He deserves no sympathy or understanding.
Neither do the bootlickers of authoritarian violence who want to excuse this despicable behavior.
me after a 2 second clip without context:
I've seen enough, I'm calling it
unless you're from the US or another violence loving sick authoritarian banana republic slapping a cuffed woman in the face is very much wrong and illegal.
There is really nothing more needed than this 2 second clip.
At least you got that right.
