I'm usually pretty hard on CPS, as I feel that anyone in an authority position in a society of equals need to be held to a very high standard.
Could have the officers handled it a bit better, ya, but frankly, they are two officers with shoes on trying to arrest someone resisting who has skates on while on ice. Another mitigating factor is this person is skilled at keeping their balance on those skates in a physical game. I was shocked they didn't tase him (or at least it didn't look like it in the video).
I've seen this going around labelling this adult as a kid is trying to load people's feelings oh they are just young kids playing hockey, he's 21 years old, he is an adult. This was 40 some on adults breaking a public health order.
