I'm sorry. I thought we were discussing being "180 flipped like a ninja". Not losing someone's balance and falling. Of course the latter is possible simply by being pregnant. Where is the shoving motion? Please point it out for me.
OH I get it now! Your problem is reading comprehension! That's something that I can't help you with, unfortunately.
Also, my wife would never mouth off to an officer and put herself in a position where she needs to be restrained, endangering her unborn child. But I guess we shouldn't expect people to act responsibly while pregnant.
And if your wife DID happen to mouth off, you'd be ok with her being STRONG-ARMED like the woman in the video? It sure as hell sounds like you are. She should've kept her damn whore mouth shut if she didn't want to get tossed/thrown/slammed/slip on the ground when a cop is trying to restrain her.
Seriously, what makes you think that it would be impossible for you, your wife, or any seemingly reasonable person to not snap and mouth off to cops? Between the hormones and added stress of pregnancy, you'd be surprised at what kind of stuff pregnant women will snap at and it isn't even their fault. I absolutely love how people like you say how easy something is because they've never had to deal with that thing. Instead of thinking about how someone might be blowing out of proportion, you should be thinking about how lucky you are that you don't have to deal with it and at least pretend to show some empathy.
I would never in a million years suggest that it was ok for her to fall on her stomach (common sense, no?). But to me, based on what I actually see...with my eyes...in the video...is that it looks like it was her own fault and the cop did nothing to "180 ninja flip" her.
I love how someone so objective turns hyperbole into literalism. It's not like the cop had ANY influence on the woman falling on the ground. He wasn't even touching her, right!
Yup...totally the same. You are not exaggerating even a little bit.
When I try to prevent someone from falling, I ALWAYS lean into them. Always. Sometimes, I even give a little swinging action to end their fall quicker! Don't hate on me for throwing out ridiculous scenarios when you try to play your own off as being possible.
Or how about this scenario: she was trying to get away from the cop because she knew that he would try to
her shit up once he got a hold of her and therefore trying to protect the baby by getting away? Sounds a hell of a lot more realistic than trying to break her fall when getting her shit
ed up is EXACTLY what happened. It's not like he just sat her down and gave her a stern talking-to; he cuffed her.
*sigh* Exceptional. No shit, Sherlock. I didn't bring up the possibility of a trip because you or anyone else said something about it. I mentioned it as I was considering both sides of the story and trying to legitimately assess if the police officer could have played any role in "taking down" this woman. It was just brought up as a potential factor, that I dismissed. Nothing more.
Or maybe being in a neighborhood that has increased police attention, cops should be calling for back up knowing that there are always a ton of them around the corner when handling sensitive situations, like a highly agitated pregnant woman, instead of trying to go at it alone.
The fact of the matter is that the cop shouldn't have even let it get to the point where he's trying to restrain her, which is a big factor in the fall. If there's anything in my post that you should be paying attention to, THAT was it.
And yes, I'm the biased one. The one who has found fault in both the victims AND the police officers. The one looking at these videos second for second, analyzing subtle movements, listening intently for verbal communication. I am biased as
. You have cracked the case.
Truth is exactly in the middle and since both parties did things, we should just call everything square. It's not like cops should be
ing trained to deal with these types of situations with minimal physicality. A woman trying to protect her son is somehow unreasonable(misguided or not) because she's pregnant and the cop should be able to strong-arm her into submission. So if any harm comes to the baby, the cops aren't liable despite having training to deal with these things.
Yeah man...that's straight up the most objective shit I've ever read. Maybe I should just slap the shit out of my kid when she's screaming in my ears because people shouldn't be screaming in other peoples ears, right? Size differences, strength, and power dynamics should simply be irrelevant! That should be your theme song.
