Seems the cop struck 1st. However, I cant tell what may have provoked him before the video.

Entirely justified.

She's got her hands on the cop trying to arrest someone else. In other words, physically interfering with an arrest. Not very bright.

What happened in the minute prior to that video being turned on?

I guess she learned that she shouldn't slap a cop in the face.

That dude is way too fat to be a cop.

So you think that 300lb man winding up on a 100lb woman, while her arms were being held by another cop, was justified? Thats surprising coming from you.

From what I can see in this video, I don't think the cop did anything wrong. She was clearly interfering when she didn't need to.

You take woman with drunken reerun strength, taking 3 or 4 good swipes at you while you are trying to arrest someone else. She's lucky he didn't really beat her ass. She had it coming.

He didn't "wind up on her" right away. The first time he engages her, it's more of a push to the face. She then smacks him in the face. Then he "winds up on her."

Since we can't see what led up to it, I have to go with what's there. That's a clear case of police brutality.

I don't see the "brutality" here. She was moving in an aggressive manner, he hit her once to gain the advantage and then after that was pretty gentle given her continued resistance.

He lost his cool and decked her in the mouth. Guess that slap to his face must've stung the poor little fella.

Those cops handled that horribly. If that dude was under arrest. They should have instructed the woman to move and then extract the guy from the booth.

What makes people think they can touch cops, especially when they are in the process of restraining someone else?
