Someone there called that police brutality? I'm not even sure he was that excessive in the pull he gave her arm. She was pretty wobbly to begin with, and it looks like she just ragdoll'd it when he pulled on her arm to put her into the arrest position. I feel badly for the cop - no telling what she may have transmitted with those loogies.
I am okay with this, and also would have been okay with smashing the van door into her, and perhaps a good tasering or pepper spraying so she gets the idea that f'ing with the police is not a good thing to do.
I don't think cops have the authority to be violent in the face of disrespect, but when you're spit on I can understand how you'd lose it for a second.
That was not only an act of disrespect but also an assault. You can contract a disease or infection from someone spitting in your eye. As far as the dragging goes, lots of people just "play dead" so it's a pain to move them. I suspect he wanted to get her in the paddy wagon quickly rather than draw it out and create a big scene.
Says a lot about the country and the people.
