The chance of anyone getting killed by a gun is less in other countries so


To blame it all on cops is silly. Our country has a bigger gun problem than other countries. If you expected cops to behave exactly how cops in other countries behaved (cops in some countries don’t even have guns) you wouldn’t have very many cops. Plus, there are plenty of examples of cops in other countries getting physical.

That video only shows a small part of what happened. Just because they claimed to have not known the child stole the doll doesn’t mean that’s what happened. Obviously, the cops were after them. Do you think they walked out of the store and whoever saw them steal the doll didn’t say anything? They just called the cops & all those cops just happened to be in the parking lot. Something transpired before this video started. The play by play by the women was intentionally misleading. The cops never tried to throw the lady to the ground yet the women recording said it multiple times never failing to mention that she was pregnant. Coincidentally, ever time she said it the camera was not on the women but I guarantee you if they were actually throwing her to the ground they would’ve caught that on the camera. Often times it’s the crowd around the cops who are shouting & interfering that exacerbate the situation as well as the person getting arrested’s refusal to comply.
I know all cops aren’t perfect. We’ve probably all dealt with cops who come on to strong (I know I have) but more people should also try to put themselves in a cops shoes. If they did maybe they’d be respectful and compliant. If they have a dispute tell it to the judge. Way to often you see people intentionally being jerks during their arrest, all while saying they are complying.
