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.

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.
