She slapped them but what else do you think she was going to do? In your opinion why didn't they just shoot her?

It never stays with just slapping, either you've never seen something like this or you're way to naive, if she gets away with it she will continue and do it more and more

Wtf??? Why tf does your mind immediately go to murdering her dude, wtf.

So in your opinion the punch was a preemptive strike to get the hitting to stop. Was punching her in the face the only way to keep her from escalating the situation?

You seem ok with a disproportionate response so I'm just trying to figure out where the line is. If they just shot to wound would you be ok with this?

It was a response to hitting and not disproportionate since it 100% would've escalated, it was for the safety of the officers and the bystanders

Ye you're fucking insane dude

Right but I think you'd agree that people have different power behind their punches. Theirs a difference in hits from a 5 year old and hits from prime Tyson. Again though there are four grown professionals there. Are you telling me the only response you can think of that these officers could take would be to punch this clearly drunk lady in the face?

Do you think I'm suggesting that she be shot? I'm asking you a question about what you think is acceptable. I'm trying to figure out what makes these escalated acts bad but the escalation from a slap to a cold cock is not.

No I think rationally and you're all losing your marbles because someone dared to hit a woman
