Seattle Cop punches young woman, Update The Woman Apologizes

Like the saying goes, don't start none won't be none. Don't resist arrest fool. Even if you think the cop is in the wrong you just don't resist. You won't win that no matter what the circumstance.
 
ARE YOU SERIOUS?


ARE YOU SERIOUS?


hahahahahahahahaha.


But seriously though, the poor cop is probably going to be fired and or suspended.
 
I with the OP on this one as well. A few thoughts...

-For real it took that long to subdue her? Most cops would have taken out the pepper spray or tased her by now...

-Where the hell is his back up?!?!?!? It was a potentially explosive situation and he needed to get that crowd under control asap. All it would have taken is one fucktard to either jump the cop or reach for his gun and it would have turned into a nightmare.

-I really, and I do really hate it when everyone starts pulling out their cell phone cameras just a few feet from all of the action.

-The video does not show the whole story, but it was meant to show a white cop punching a black woman in the face. You bet your ass this is going to show up on the news.

-I feel bad for the cop as this *might* end his career. He was just trying to do his job and this bitch and her friends were giving him a hard time. He might lose his job because the pressure his bosses might get from black public officials.
 
I believe the girls were jaywalking. Don't hold me on that.

The girl in the black shirt was just as big as the cop. She was twisting around and resisting arrest. I believe the cop didn't want to use more force due to all of the people around and people with cell phones/cameras. The girl in the black also had 2 of her friends with her barking at the cop. Especially the girl in the pink. The guy in the blue was clearly holding his girl back (pink shirt) until she just had to jump in.


Video clearly showed the Pink Girl putting her hands on the cop, interfering with an arrest and then pushing the cop before he hit her.

Girl in the pink then shoves/puts her hands on the cop. All the cop has to say in my book is she was reaching for my gun or weapon, whatever. She was also interfering with an arrest. She gets capped right in the face.
 
[quote name='xeno']So all that commotion for jay walking?[/QUOTE]

All of that commotion for resisting arrest or resisting having a ticket being issued.
 
It wasn't even resisting arrest. From the sound of it, the officer was stopping people who were jaywalking to inform them that a foot bridge was 15 feet away; whether he was merely warning people or issuing citations, I don't know. Anyway, the girls ignored his requests to stop and became verbally and physically confrontational when he insisted on it. Really? Over jaywalking? These girls are fucking stupid.

Watch the video to find out the answer. I'll give you a hint. 30 seconds to 1 minute in. You will find out the answer a grand total of 5 times.

The police officer occupies a position of prestige, so it's up to him to behave according to code even when dealing with idiots (as in this case). I'm not saying the girl didn't deserve to be hit, but it would have been in the officer's better interest to use a less-divisive tactic to subdue her.
 
Man, first of all he's not very good at his job. His job is order, but he can't control one woman. Was he trying to arrest her from the start of the video there? No partner, no backup? But 4 guys standing around him with camera phones. Awful.

Remember kids, no snitching. Unless it's on the police, then maybe you can get famous.
 
[quote name='Xevious']Where is the backup? Damn Seattle budget cuts....[/QUOTE]

After looking at the video again I think he just didn't have time to call for back up. I think everyone else made the situation more tense when they started pulling out their cameras. Yea the stupid bitch shouldn't have touch the cop. So...just wait for the stupid lawsuit that will follow. :roll:
 
fuck this bitch. I will continue to give all cops the benefit of the doubt. I say this every time I see one of these videos, as a black man that grew up in the hood and was falsely arrested twice (along with many of my friends) I still will back all cops.

Whenever you see a cop beating the shit out of a guy its most likely that they deserved it. You know what I did when I was being arrested? I told the cop I was innocent and to prove it I was going to allow him to detain me without resisting and an hour later I was free to go. Hell we had a nice conversation on the ride to station....they also said I was one of the nicest kids they detained. They even brought me doughnuts when I was in the cell.

Dont being a screw up and cops wont mess with you. Also let go of your bullshit ego and just do what the cops says.


EDIT: Also I love when people act all mocho with that bullshit, "I cant believe he couldnt subdue a woman." Do you know how hard it is to safely subdue a full grown person without physically harming them? People always just assuming that from all their years of playing video games and watching movies they would magically be able to Vulcan pinch a person down. Idiots.
 
idiot girls should have just walked over there. more than likely he just would have told them not to jaywalk and let them go, but they had to throw a fit about it. gotta love all the people just standing around with their camera phones. welcome to the 21st century.
 
This cop did not pull a gun, a taser or even pepper spray. He only assaulted the woman after she assaulted him therefore it was justified. This guy didn't use any weapons of any sort and therefore this guy deserves no condemnation. He is probably one of the few honest cops and this will sour his experience which would be the true crime here.

Also; The cameraman should be fined for verbal abuse. That was so damn hard to listen to.
 
And if this had happened in Portland, the 'anarchists' would be out protesting in town square (with their faces hidden), and the mayor would be calling the officer's actions a tragedy and how we need to find different ways of acting.
 
I like the attitude all the bystanders have, whipping out their cellphone cameras thinking they're doing some kind of civil service. Yelling at the cop and making it a point to say "Did you get that on camera?" Just as obnoxious as the woman.

#1, jaywalking shouldn't be a crime. we have the best forensics in the world. they can tell if someone got struck by a vehicle in the walk area or not.

#2, the cop should be used to people not giving a fuck about petty shit. if they were littering, that's one thing, because littering is serious. but things like jaywalking...some laws should be stricken off the books. jaywalking is one.

#3, the women in question are clearly in the wrong. should the police officer have clocked her? in that situation, he went punch and then tried to detain. that's reasonable to me.

i've been detained by the police for curfew before in my life. the dumbest shit. i'm trying to get pussy and i end up getting detained...down the street from my house!!! we rolled past my damn house to go get fingerprinted and mugshot'd. my friend's family went ballestic (he was with me) and got the city to destroy that shit. going to try to have us in the damn system at the age of 13....lawd!

so that leads to #4

#4, i can fully understand why the women were hostile in that video pre-punch. detained over jaywalking? i'd be pissed too! it's too easy to go "take the detainment and then file a complaint and...."

that's unrealistic. it takes too much pride and too much intelligence at the time. when you're caught up in "moments", you don't think clearly. happens to almost everyone of every race. i don't support what they did, but i can understand if you're quickly thinking that you're about to be arrested for jaywalking...you're going to resist obviously.

#5, which leads back to #1, jaywalking needs to be taken off the books to prevent situations like this. it's not clear those women were aware of what the previous man did in regards to it. i can walk past someoen having a convo right now and not pay attention to it and do the same shit the previous person was just talking about. the cop might have thought they were being defiant - they just wanted to cross the street

#6, nothing should happen to the cop. period.

and

#7, quit interjecting race into everything. i promise, i always feel like youtube was created so whites can look at stuff like this and go "they're going to blame it on the white man!" and blacks can look at it like "this is another case of the white man with too much power!"

it has already happened in this thread. people just waiting until it becomes a racial spark.

i'm not dumb...
 
It's sad that the guy remained calm in the situation when his 2 female friends acted like animals. The guy also gets all of the credit in the world from me for trying to hold back his girl from doing something stupid.
 
Wow, yeah I don't really blame the cop for hitting her because he's trying to restrain the girl in the black shirt, and the other one pushes her boyfriend away, and then pushes the cop. I'd love to know what that bitch was thinking and why she thought she had any authority to "get the cop off of her friend".

On the other side of things, the cop is terrible at his job. Same size or not, you're supposed to be trained in law enforcement. He should have known exactly how to subdue that woman properly and not allowed the situation to escalate. You don't stand there and "love wrestle" with her for 5 minutes.

Honestly, the reason the cop probably wasn't MORE violent with her, was because she is female. He seemed reluctant (and I'm going to assume reluctant because the thought of him being unable to is pathetic) to force her arm behind her back to cuff her. All I can think of is EBM got tasered at that A's game for a hell of a lot less. If he didn't have to worry about the possibility of being sued, he probably could have done his job a lot better. Pretty ironic, I think.
 
the cop was holding back on the girl. he probably could have slammed her on the car and locked her up tight in cuffs if she wanted. the girl that got punched is lucky she just got hit and not pepper sprayed, tased and arrested.

Cop was holding back for several reasons. Cop was in a damned if you do and damned if you dont situation. I really do like to believe that the last thing that this cop wanted to turn this into was a black/white race issue. If this incident happened in NY, Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton would be marching with this girl and others on their way to City Hall to protest Police Brutality.

1. She was a girl.
2. She had friends with her
3. She was black and he was white.
4. There were a ton of bystanders all with camera phone videos.
 
theres a big chunk of what happened missing like what did the cops stop them or because depending on that then id wonder why they were using so much force on the lady. he had no right to hit her especially like that if she was out of control use mace .

i didnt see where she actually hit him though she was resisting but then i saw and heard where he slammed her hard against the hood of the cruiser. hes probably going to lose his job especially if theres other people there who filmed the whole incident.

yeah if what you all are saying is true and he was trying to arrest her for jaywalking thats stupid.
 
I feel sorry for that officer because this will get out of hand for him. If he was black no one would really care. But he was white, other person was black, and a woman at that. Now me color or gender dont mean you cant deserve a smack in the mouth but thats not how the public see's things and they love to find stuff to get upset about.

Being a cop isnt easy at all and they have to eat alot of shit and put up with the worse and best of our society.

Well look at whats going on. He is trying to deal with one person resisting arrest, cursing, yelling and such and then other people start closing in on him and he is all alone with more people coming in like the camera guy. He had a problem getting out of hand and delt with it. That was a gut reaction and nothing else, I would have done the same thing probablly. I doubt he said "OK I need to punch this woman now", it just happened like a reflex. And hell it wasnt like he knocked her ass out and then started kicking her. He hit her, then grabbed her he wasnt going over the line or beating her.

I dont think he was out of line in the least really. Not to mention it was entirely their fault, if they had simply stopped, listened and done what he said that would not have happened at all. I would bet 100 bucks if they had just stopped and not opened their mouths the cop would have just said something about not being able to do that and to be safe and then sent them on their way without a ticket or anything.

Police officers arent rent a cops, if you do something wrong or unsafe and a cop stops you for it then you listen. You do not curse and yell at him and put up a verbal or physical fight because he can not and will not just let it go. Once you start in on him its over for you, you dug your own grave. When a officer is on duty normal rules of dealing with people do not apply because it is not their job to be normal. Respect it or not but that uniform and badge being on means he is the boss whether you like it or not.

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

The girl in black resisted arrest, he had every right to use the force that he did by slamming her into the car. He didn't attack her.

The second girl put her hands on him and then pushed him. That is considered to be in every Courtroom by every judge Assaulting a Police Officer which is a felony and in most states 5-10 years in the slammer. She hit him and he hit her back.
 
So stupid. With OP because if those girls werent resisting arrest, none of that woulda happened. Sure it coulda been a BS reason he was (citing? ticketing?) them but when you act like that, you actually have to give the cop a little more respect for NOT spraying her or tazing her. Im pretty sure they are told to do that when someone resists. Some horrible people in this world.

Yes it should. Trust me, if the police are involved this isn't some sleepy main street in the middle of a small town.

I live on a city block with a ton of traffic, and every day I see at least one pair of idiots casually walk across the road talking to each other while cars brake like crazy not to hit them.

Plainly put, it's unfair to drivers. When I have to stop suddenly because a pedestrian decided to jaywalk, I put myself at a great risk of being rear-ended. Not to mention my heart goes in my mouth and I'm likely to get cussed out by the idiot to boot.

[quote name='lokizz']he should have used mace.[/QUOTE]

This. Mace is used to subdue aggressive/uncooperative people. If he would of maced the girl because she was resisting arrest NO ONE would care. The fact that he THREW A PUNCH after getting pushed? Are you kidding me? Mace obviously would have been worse for the girl but it sounds like 90% of the lynch mob here would prefer that. He could have handled the situation A LOT better.

And yes the girls were hella stupid to do what they did but everyone is acting like they're not going to get in trouble and only the cop is. They'll get thrown in jail and the cop will get suspended/have to retake training. Jesus.
 
i wonder what his fellow officers are thinking of him right now? Pussy for not pulling out the mace/taser or weakling because he couldn't take down a black woman?
