Re: Seattle: Officer Punches woman, caught on tape.

You guys are skating dangerously close to the edge of the forum etiquette boundaries.

This discusssion is not about race, and racial slurs will not be tolerated. Neither will profanity, or psuedo-profanity.

Re: Seattle: Officer Punches woman, caught on tape.

The thing that struck me about this video - as many times as the question has been asked on this board about whether a CHL holder can carry handcuffs and use them to detain someone - just look at how difficult it is to put cuffs on someone who is non cooperative. The officer was obviously bigger and stronger than the woman, and still it was a real struggle for him.

The other thing is, how many of us have to do our jobs in the midst of a crowd of people who are yelling obscenities at us and video taping everything we do? I don't think he did everything right. He could have handled it better. But I sure wouldn't want to be in his shoes. So, kudos to him.

Also, I added a language warning for the link. Not for the video, but for the article. What kind of newspaper prints that sort of language in a story???
