Police use force

A woman is knocked to the ground when she did not move back fast enough after the Denver police made an arrest.

They really grab her up quick when she started to tell the story.

As for that shove she got, a little excessive if you ask me.

Apparently she's a member of "Code Pink"

From Wikipedia:

Code Pink: Women for Peace is an anti-war group that started in the lead-up to the invasion of Iraq. They describe themselves as a "grassroots peace and social justice movement working to end the war in Iraq, stop new wars, and redirect our resources into healthcare, education and other life-affirming activities."[1] Wearing their signature pink color,[2] they have conducted marches, protests, and high-visibility publicity stunts in order to achieve their goals, earning criticism from President Bush and others. While the group is initiated and led by women, men are welcome to participate at both the local and national level. Code Pink states they have more than 250 chapters full worldwide

Does the term "life-affirming activities" include hot sex with young, nubile blondes? If so, I'm proud as punch to be pro-Code Pink.

I dunno, the only thing I can say for sure is it includes getting knocked on your ass by a cop with a billy club.

I'm sorry. I don't know why I find this whole episode so humorous. It just looked like something right out of a movie. The guy helping her off the ground cursing the man! Then then dimwit continues to chatter on after getting her clocked clean by some Colarado pig. The look on everyone's face as they haul her ass off to the clink was priceless. I know it's not funny but then you layer on the commentary here and I can't help it.

This is likely NOT a "Colorado pig". Denver was given $50 million by the feds (same for RNC) to fund security, etc. They brought in LE officials from all over the country to help support this.

As mentioned previously, I'd have to see more of what happened to be able to make a decision. That's one thing I always hate about these "bad cop" videos - they rarely tell the full story.

I'd personally think the cop could have been more gentle with his use of force, but if she was up in his face yelling or attempting to touch him in some way, I don't know that I could blame him.

I totally meant no disrespect to any law enforecement types from Colorado. I was just using the terminology that I imagined the protesters would use. I swear- it looked like something right out of Born on the Fourth of July- not that that movie was humorous. It was like she was mid word then WHAP!!! She looked like a rag doll flying to the pavement. Crazy stuff...

A cop smashing a WOMAN to the ground. I've see it live, and in person before. Nothing new. He became a cop just so he could get away with shit like this. If it was anyone else they'd be ebhing bars right now. Yeah I know he was doing his job, and she should have done what he told her. What the **** ever.

I think most normal people not trying to create a scene would’ve taken a baby step backwards from that little love tap, then turned around and went on about their way.

I am all for cracking hippie skull but that was way over the top. That woman probably weighed half as much and I find it amusing that they grabbed her like that after they abused her. I hope the city doesn't get sued.

Rain Man

I think that was fixed, because that woman took a dive.

She's obviously looking to cause trouble, and the policeman was stupid enough to give her an excuse for drama.

That said, I'm curious why they took her away. That doesn't seem right at all.

Well she did dare him to do it again...


But aside from that.. Yes it was over the top.. That guy needs to be fired and it is also interesting to see they nabbed her during her interview.. Wonder if they charged her with something.. If so, hopefully she does get some money out of it..

You can force them back with out clocking them in the face. I'm a brtender and have had to do it to unruly women MANY times.

Of course she did not.. She got up ended off of her feet and hit the ground.. That cop did a masterful job knocking that bitch to the ground(calling her a bitch because she dared him to do it)..

She did get knocked down like a wet noodle.. Mainly, because she is light compared to the cop and he hit her perfectly in the chest right above the teets.. She stood no chance.. I am sure if he would have gotten further away and then hit her she would have done a flip...
