Well, as usual, we cannot SEE what escalated this into violence. Pretty convenient, eh?
I'm not saying the cop is justified in hitting her, but why were the ladies resisting so?
Also, the lady that got hit, technically she attacked the officer.
Funny how words are edited out at 1:25.
Thoughts?

Here's a better video that shows the fatass interfering long before the punching scene. It also shows the lady in black resisting arrest from the very beginning.
This is a case where the cop was correct, for once.
A crowd gathered when the cop was trying to arrest the skinny b*tch but she was resisting.
Her friend, the fatass, interfered and tried oh so very delicately, to get the cop off of the friend from getting arrested. That's already Obstruction of a Public Servant and battery.
Also, because the crowd had gathered and no backup had arrived, it was in the officer's best interests to get the girl in handcuffs as soon as possible. If the cop had fallen down or got pushed down, his life being in danger increases greatly, specifically because the crowd was there.
His very swift reaction to another person laying hands on him quickly diffused a potentially bad situation and it let the crowd know that this is serious and to probably not attempt to interfere.
The officer had 3 choices:
1. Use physical force.
2. Use his taser (not a very good option as that would take too long)
3. User his gun (not a very good option as that would take too long and would be more likely to cause death.)
I'm glad he went with option 1.
Did you guys know that that particular unit undergoes boxing training and crowd control measures to avoid getting hurt? Now why would they have training like that?
Oh, right:
Apparently, there was similar situation where an officer fell to the ground during the arrest and the crowd descended upon him, beating him to the point of brain damage. He now has permanent damage. So, they now train for swift arrests and crowd control to avoid situations like that.
Some say it was too much force. I tend to agree, but only a little. What I don't understand is why the officer had such a difficult time arresting the young lady. She's not one of those steroid taking bodybuilder types: looks like he needs training on how to make arrests to those that resist.
Put your hands on an officer - get KTFO, it's how it should be, id have tazered them both personally, resisting arrest and then claiming police brutality because you're black is about as scumbag low as one could get.
Seriously.
COPS ARE HERE TO SERVE AND PROTECT. AND IF THAT MEANS IF THEY GOTTA PUNCH TEENAGE GIRLS IN THE FACE FOR JAYWALKING THAN SO BE IT.
So whats next? Tasered for forgetting a directional light?
