Well, isn't the city responsible that he is trained properly? Responsible that the officers who train him are fully qualified/capable of doing so?

Psychology is something that you can train up to a very limited point. You can only be told to how to act in a specific situation. Wither or not you can think with the clarity to do it, is completely personal.

Actually we were discussing how the officer seemed unable to restrain the woman, unable to apply the right technique. You know, shit they teach you in the academy.
Well, ideally those types of candidates should be weeded out. Unfortunately we live in an imperfect world.
I don't see the point of condemning all police as pricks because one chooses to throw a punch while being assaulted. After all, if a group of Marines rape an Iraqi woman, are all Marines in fact rapists?

No, he's a prick.
You campared the police and the military? The military is a million times more rigid and organized than any PD. In Bootcamp you can do two things without permission: breathe and blink. The Police Academy is no where near as strict. Also, a Marine riding in an Abrams while doing a patrol in an Iraqi neighborhood has way less discretion than a cop cruising the beat in his black&white. For one, the Marine has to request permission to engage the enemy, and the request then has to be okayed by his CO.
An insurgent with an RPG =/= a pissed off skinny unarmed black girl.

You're missing my point. I am simply saying that one bad apple does not ruin the bunch.
Do all NBA players rape white girls like Kobe did?
Do all Presidents get their knobs polished by some intern in the White house?
Are all mechanics rip off artists?
Is every person of middle eastern ethnicity a terrorist?
No on all counts.
The officer was in a tense situation, he made a decision and executed. If he is so very wrong, why are no charges being pressed against him? Why did the girl apologize? Why didn't she get a shark lawyer and sue the city for millions?

Had another look at the video. Even though she pushed him, he attacked her back via fighting which is not called for. This was not self defense or use of proper force.
I've asked this before, here it goes......What if the cop was a woman and the jaywalker a man? If she hit him after he pushed her, what then? Excessive force? What if she were a black female officer, and he a white man?

I am asking you what your take would be on it then, your personal opinion, as opposed to what it is now.
