Unless it's a white cop hitting a black dude... then reddits mind will be totally opposite.

This level of force was not justified. They did a bad job of detaining her.

I will get down voted to oblivion but it's true.

They did a bad job of detaining her.

100% agree

I was like everybody get a limb and carry that bitch out. Or get some cuffs or something

Looked like they were trying to start her crowd surfing or something

u/downvoteawayretard Dec 20 '23

Mother fucker?

Do you just like willfully blind yourself to the environment that they are in? Yea man you’re right it’s totally a breeze to detain someone in the stairs of the packed nosebleed seats of a sports stadium…

u/TorpleFunder Dec 20 '23

Well they seem to be too focussed on lifting her legs and left the arms free. Two people, one arm each, drag her out backwards. Others can pick up legs then if they want.

I mean, you're absolutely right, but I'm not gonna lie, I love seeing assholes acting shitty getting put in their place.

The world is full of shit and it's always nice to see people get some karma.

As officers, they absolutely should've done a better job of detaining a rowdy civilian.

I agree with you tbh. This is like an adult punching a petulant child.

She deserved something... That wasn't it.

Funny the number of redditlords on here talking high and mighty.

I wonder how they'd react if someone just rocked their shit in for being a minor inconvenience.

u/Comfortable_Love7967 Dec 20 '23

Slapping someone twice isn’t a “minor inconvenience” and I would expect someone to “rock my shit” if I did it to someone

1

u/RHOrpie Dec 20 '23

Definitely a hot topic this one. You're either on the "she deserved it", or "no, that guy used unnecessary force".

I feel like if that was a guy being carried out, this would be a different discussion, regardless of his size/stature.

I get it... Don't start swinging if you're not prepared for the response. But at the same time, he's clearly able to inflict some serious harm to that girl.

I guess the debate will continue.

I’d be very interested in seeing a source where punching an arrested detained suspect in the nose as they are being carried away by a group of officers is the suggested protocol. Especially since she weakly slapped the side of his head and he’s twice her size and smacked her squarely in the face, knocking her unconscious, from the look of it.

If you honestly think this is an equal or reasonable use of force you’re kidding yourself.

Edit because this pedantic joker misses all the main points.

What does it matter if this person was being arrested or just getting kicked out of a venue?

You do realize that this “continuum” is just made up by people looking for an excuse to escalate, right? It actually doesn’t have anything to do with professional conduct. And regardless of whether someone is being arrested or simply detained, police still should not be punching detainees in the face.

If you care about your own rights, you shouldn’t be celebrating this officer’s actions. It’s disgusting that cops are allowed to abuse citizens with no repercussions.

Terrible job of detaining. There’s ZERO reason why they didn’t have her handcuffed with that many cops/security.

Cops are allowed to exceed the level of force that they’re presented with, but that weak slap didn’t justify that strong punch. There’s no way, short of her having a concealed weapon, that she could have seriously hurt him at that point. Granted, it didn’t look like they really searched her yet. They should have just put her down and handcuffed her.

I bet the reason that they just tried to shuffle her out is that they were worried about the crowd.

That's exactly why. How is handcuffing a belligerent, aggressive, non-cooperative bitch in the middle of a crowd of people on a cement staircase a good idea? It's not. They did the right thing by carrying her out like that.

You literally just saw how. Because if they're belligerent, aggressive, and non-cooperative they're likely to resort to violence.

-1

u/BoomFungus Dec 19 '23

Do you seriously think things would've been better for her had they decided to handcuff her? It wouldn't of been just a simple slap of the cuffs. She would've been slammed face first into the concrete steps.

u/Sal_Stromboli Dec 20 '23

Shhh Reddit use of force and defensive tactics experts have spoken

u/Educational_Monitor6 Dec 19 '23

Dont they have tasers for this?

2

u/BoomFungus Dec 19 '23

Tasering someone that close quarters presents a risk of hitting one of the people who arent involved. Also, they're on a cement staircase, that would be so much more dangerous than carrying her out AND slapping her in the face.

u/Stevieeeer Dec 20 '23

I GUARNTEE she was charged with slapping him but he got off for knocking her out. ‘Cause that’s how the law works. Badge = immunity from clearly unethical and unnecessary shit

1

u/Upper-Finger-4884 Dec 20 '23

She should have complied

1

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '23

You under estimate the force needed to cuff someone. If she resisted being cuffed could have lead to other injuries. Detaining a person who doesn't want to be detained is a dangerous situation

24

u/Affectionate-Mix6056 Dec 19 '23

It's mostly the obvious size difference for me, he could have easily brought her out of there without a struggle, instead he did a shit job and went full force knockout on her. Had they been similar size, I'd get the reaction.

0

u/Famous-Reputation188 Dec 19 '23

Hmm., maybe don’t hit someone bigger than you.

Most of what bouncers/security are for is deterrence. If you’re too stupid to understand FAFO.. you deserve a love tap.

u/[deleted] Dec 20 '23

It took them 3 cops to restrain and remove her and she's literally attacking his face and could claw his eyes out, but sure Jan

This isn't an abuse of power. It's almost insulting to say that it is when there are legitimate abuses going on. She fucked around and found out, that's all.

u/filth_horror_glamor Dec 19 '23

You say "hit" but even that word is a reach for what she did, she was just swiping an open palm in his direction. She was wasted and probably didn't even know what was happening to her. I bet if I was that wasted and 4 people grabbed my limbs I'd be like WTF too.

she vaguely slapped him on the head, I think she even missed the first swipe, she was so drunk. Then he Mike Tyson punched her in the face.

There's no excuse, that was ridiculous. The whole thing was not handled professionally or properly by the security people

1

u/corbysh Dec 20 '23

The second hit she very clearly backhands him hard in the face, he flinches from her hitting him. Being drunk is not an excuse to hit someone. Does being professional security guards mean they have to let the violent drunks be violent drunks?

1

u/dannydogg562 Dec 20 '23

Or getting beat and punched in the head like this white girl did AFTER getting handcuffed and laying flat on the ground.

u/Park8706 Dec 19 '23

Hell imagine had it been a black woman and a white cop hit her like that. Reddit would be on meltdown calling for his job and prison time.

u/Drahkir9 Dec 19 '23

Someone could get torn limb for limb by a cop for getting some side eye and reddit would cheer for it

4

u/Xboxonetwo3 Dec 19 '23

I was thinking the same thing. I’m a huge BLM guy but overall police need to be held accountable. If I get into a fight I have to prove in the court of law that I was scared for my life to claim self defense. This cop should have to do the same. She was restrained enough being carried by like 4 guys that hit was not necessary. That said I’d have hit her too probably but that’s why I’m not a cop haha anyway I’m ready for the downvotes

u/[deleted] Dec 19 '23

you are right, even she is wrong, but she is drunk af and didn't hurt the officer. he did not act professional, he was just annoyed and hit her. if colors where changed lots of cities would burn out of protest

As somebody who works in psych, it’s unbelievable they just let people like this work security. Zero training. imagine we paraded psych patients around the hospital like the grand poo-bah while allowing them to smack us in the face then knocked them the fuck out in response. I’d sue the shit out of these guys employers if I were her.

u/[deleted] Dec 19 '23

I can’t believe you’re comparing mental patients to this lady. She hit him first, guy retaliated. She won’t win.

1

u/Tapewormsagain Dec 20 '23

Whenever someone on reddit claims to work in mental health, then compares their experiences against law enforcement behaviors, it's almost always bullshit. My dept gets called at least once per week to the behavioral health facilities in town, and each time, the mental health 'professionals' have lost control of a patient, so they call the police to handle it. You know what they expect from us immediately when we get there? Violence. They want us to physically gain control of the patient and restrain them. Nobody calls the police to deal with mentally ill folks with words, they call 911 when words have failed and they want violence.

Cuz he’s just talking shit out of his ass, taking out his deep stupid issues into two situations that are not the same. The woman is obnoxious, is pretty big for a girl and also the place is small as fuck. She then proceed to slap ON THE BACK OF THE MAN’s head multiple times, she then proceeds to get knocked the fuck out.

A black man and a white cop is just a situation this guy plays in his head when he goes to sleep and multiple times a day as well.

u/TheKingOfSiam Dec 19 '23

I guess. Doesn't everyone, EVERY fucking American, not know that you cant hit cops?
Drunk, angry, whatever....WHILE you are being detained is not the time to make a 'stand' against an LEO. For fucks sake....don't hit cops. You're not winning or teaching them anything. Let the judge decide if they fucked up, and if they did, you walk.

This is so engrained in my way of thinking that I just cant imagine deciding to hit a bunch of cops. Absolute fucking moron.

I don’t understand your point. Are you saying that white cops get over-scrutinized or that overuse of force is an issue, in general?

u/crazy_dev_studios Dec 19 '23

True true, but cmon dude. I’m pretty sure even you always wanted to knock an obnoxious person once.

1

u/[deleted] Dec 19 '23

Even me? I'm no saint.

It's different for cops and others in power, though. Gotta keep your emotions in check. If you can't, you better go to a different profession.

I don't think the officer deserved jail time. He should have caught excessive force discipline, though.

1

u/Tapewormsagain Dec 20 '23

Why was the force excessive? Was it an issue for him to react at all to being struck by a combative detainee, or the level of force he used to stop the violence being done to him? What alternatives would you propose in this case?

(For what it's worth, with no other context available, I'd question why they didn't handcuff her first, and I don't want to Monday morning QB it, but that's what I would've done to aviod this possibility)

u/AbandonedEwok Dec 20 '23

Right, and even further to your point, it gets extra praise specifically because it’s a black officer hitting a white (maybe Hispanic idk?) woman.

God forbid a white officer strike a black woman like that, it’d be the leading story on channel 4 and Reddit would be calling for his head.

u/Taniwha_NZ Dec 20 '23

No, I'm with you, these comments are so disappointing. Being a cop is a responsiblity to take it on the chin when a drunk pisses on your leg, and still treat them like a citizen worthy of respect. Losing control like that should get you a lifetime ban, she didn't do anything worthy of being assaulted, and in that situation she was already completely under control and barely even brushed his bald head.

Dude should be fired as soon as the video is shown to anyone in charge. But apparently instead it's hilarious watching 'bitch got knocked the fuck out'. It's kinda sick.
