    Why is it always so difficult to comply?
    Hands behind your back means hands behind your back.

      Apparently this is fucking reddit now.

      You somehow simultaneously believe that a cop did not sign up for a dangerous job and also that not complying with a cop for 1.5 seconds is signing up for potential paralysis or death.

      Utter trash take/person.

      Why would you need to put your hands behind your back for a simple traffic stop?

        It’s another video taken out of context, we have no idea why, everyone just assumes the cop is excessive. Eventually we’ll see the full video.

        Downvotes need to be more than this, I need to know how you really feel about it lol.

          Is there a justification for body slamming a person after they cry and hesitate for 1.5 seconds? If the answer is yes, you’re a horrible person.

          I have worked in a field where I routinely needed to restrain people larger than myself without hurting them. These people were unwell, sometimes violent, and often paranoid and aggressive. I never once fucking bodyslammed an adult patient or punched them.

          I had to restrain teenagers, many who looked a lot like this girl (who may not have been 100% compliant, but was definitely not “resisting” as I have been resisted by teenage patients). I never once fucking bodyslammed a small teenage girl or punched her. Nor did I fucking bodyslam and punch a 200+lb highschool football player with paranoid delusions and a penchant for punching nurses.

          Why not? Because there is absolutely zero need to do that, it’s fucked up and mean, it could seriously hurt them, and it’s illegal besides. When I was doing this type of work, I was much smaller than the pig in the video, and again restraining teenagers up to 300+lb adults. The lack of a need to do something forceful, and doing the forceful thing anyway despite not needing to is the definition of excessive force. Bodyslamming an unarmed, small, possibly inebriated teenage girl as a 200+lb man is excessive and fucked up.

          If you think this is OK, you need to take a step back and ask yourself why you think that.

          …what more information do you need beyond bodyslamming a skinny 18 year old girl and punching her while shes down?

          That cop must be a pathetic little bitch if he’s THAT afraid of a little girl.

          Maybe we should put some strong confident people in those positions instead of frightened babies.

        Because you are flailing around with your arms and not listening because you want to call your mommy. Do you know how fast a person can pull out a blade and fatally stab you? I hate power tripping cops as much as you do, but we have to consider his safety.

          It would be a shame if someone did some research and found:

          “Arellano began placing Hackett under arrest. He said he saw alcohol in the car and learned another trooper had pulled her over days earlier and also found an open container.” “Attorney Benjamin Crump is representing Hackett and calling for a use-of-force investigation. Crump said Hackett was booked at 12:51 a.m. on Aug. 2 in Mississippi County jail on five charges: improper display of tags, a restriction on vehicle lamps, no seat belt, purchase or possession of alcohol by a minor and refusal to submit to arrest.” “On August 1, Trooper Arellano pulled Hackett over on the highway near Manila, reporting she was going 71 in a 60-mile-per-hour zone.” Civil rights lawsuit filed against Arkansas state trooper after traffic stop altercation https://share.google/LUpZOt271jZUBfmnr Arkansas trooper threw teen down and punched her in the face during traffic stop, lawsuit says https://share.google/801x6PoTEu2bXvgnm

          So 100% cop may have been able to do this without a body slam… but it’s not like she rolled a stop sign and got body slammed for it.

      Yeah, why wouldn’t she just let the murderous psychopath that’s protected by society if he decides to kill her do whatever he wants? /s

      The fuck is wrong with y’all? You expect the untrained individual in this circumstance to act with more decorum and reason than the trained one. Be better
