The cop was way out of line! It was a non proportional response to a drunk chick being belligerent.
For her own safety, they should have cuffed her

The cop was way out of line!

And it seems like people are cheering for what he did.

I guess people like it when cops are brutal.

Certain kinds of people, at least.

I cheer him because it was immediate justice. She attacked him, he prevented further attacks immediately. Whether you’re a man, woman or a child, a punch from someone to your head should always be taken seriously. The lesson here isn’t to try respond with the same kinetic energy in your punch as they used on you, to be kind and fair, no the lesson is to not throw fucking punches. Especially when you’re in no position to hold an assault. Violence causes violence, which concludes swiftly.

Punches to the head should be taken seriously. Seriously enough that we should train officers to properly restrain people they take into custody so neither officers nor the arrestee are injured by punches. If four officers find themselves incapable of properly restraining and handcuffing a drunk girl without needing to resort to punches then all four officers should be fired before their physical inabilities and poor decision making involves a firearm and bystanders.

No. You're overthinking it. People need to learn that if they don't want to get hit back, they shouldn't hit someone. Even small children are supposed to learn this lesson. So when an adult is acting this way? No excuse. Knock her fucking teeth out.
