Let’s all assume she’s in the right for not complying. Obviously being pepper sprayed wasn’t enough to get the point across. So a forceful shove with his foot was a second option. I’m sure that cop can kick a lot harder than that.

So, this is pretty simple. If she was not complying with police orders, a normal way to handle this situation would be to arrest, handcuff and, yes, physically move her. They could then choose to charge or release. But I guess the short cut of assault is okay with you?

Ding ding ding! I’m sure you expect them to arrest everyone else who doesn’t comply too right? That way the jails will be filled within the hour and no cops will be available on foot because they’ll be too busy transporting morons.

Ok so they cuff her, move her, and release her. You completely ignored how the officer instead cut right to kicking her into the ground which accomplished nothing.

It’s because he approves of police brutality.
