        So what caused the officer to feel the need to cuff this young lady at gun point? Video is awfully one sided

        The police chief needs to go too. Police actions trickle down from above. Policy, training and what not. As a prior law enforcement officer the boss always knows what your doing. If not, then that's another reason to let him go.

        It is disturbing,but with all of the guns out there,it has created this type of atmosphere where cops become more aggressive then they should be.Something has to be done to avoid scenes like this.

        He was cuffing her. Not being violent towards her.

        For normal people, hand- cuffing by police officers is violent and traumatic. Police saw them as "suspects" so they detained everyone. I hope this never happens to anyone else but, we know it will.

        Agree.I see too many inconsistencies with LE.I understand there r times to be aggressive,if there is a legitimate threat,but this was not.Adults go berserk when this happens and get aggressive so what can you expect from a kid,considering she is black and cops go rogue.

        We keep asking ourselves 'why? Why does this happen?' Well it's because we don't train our police right. We let them have military grade weapons and we let them on the street with no idea how to calm situations.

        Actually, most are well trained in calming a situation, given the opportunity to use it.

        Or the coward could have sent one of the other cops to go cuff him instead of ejaculating as he pulled the trigger and murdered an innocent man.

        The cop is not going to walk over to him when he doesn’t know who else is in the room. It’s a horrible situation.

        Yeah I don’t know how many cops were there, but if it’s me, I’m not walking over to him. No idea what’s around the corner.
