Again, it is absolutely not reasonable to say that they should have wrestled her to the ground and pinned her arms behind her back, if that's what anyone was going to suggest - that just demonstrates to me that you've never actually tried to do that to someone who is fully aware of what's going on and trying to stop you. Hell, speaking as someone who worked the door at a bar for 3 years, it's hard enough to do with someone who's wasted.

I've worked the door in a bar as well. An RCMP officer came in and taught us takedown techniques. They came in handy several times. An armlock would likely have incapacitated her. It's not a guarantee but with several officers there why not even try that first?
I would never punch someone in the face, nevermind with a suckerpunch. It's too easy for them to hit their head and die.
