Cop Assults a 15 year old girl in Seattle

I had watched this video about 10 times now. I am so disgusted and furious that a cop would literally assault a 15 year old girl. “What was he thinking?”- To not have the common sense to know that a teenage girl will act out verbally, and have no thought about her actions taking place at the moment. But how as an ADULT and a COP could he not think about his own actions. There was no justice from a shoe being kicked off at, for a cop to intentionally kick, punch, and slam some one’s head against a wall.

There are some good cops out there, some where out there. Lately, all I have seen are cops abuse their power given to them. Example, this video right here shows that cops will cross the line, the messed up part, the other officer in the room did nothing to stop his fellow officer from sucker punching a little teenage girl, who at that point was defenseless.It doesn’t seem to matter, because unlike us REGULAR CIVILIANS, if we were to talk on our cell phones while driving, or do 70mph in a 50, or run a red light, we get ticketed and fined. But I always see cops talking on their cell phone, and I see them speed when their lights are off. I even watch one cop stop at a red light for 1 second, saw no cars and run it. While I had to wait for the light to turn green rather or not there were no cars. That little bit that cops abuse, they would say really is not an issue, has no importance. They don’t realize, that it becomes a habit and they still continue to attempted to cross the line. Those little things I have just mentioned are just the steps they take up to the line.“What happens when they do cross it?”

Incidents like this happen, which could of been avoided. Still, us REGULAR CIVILIANS, know what happens when we cross the line. “What happens when a cop crosses the line?” “You think it is justice when a cop tries to weigh the Good and the Wrong he has ever done?”- Because of that a cop will never get a fair punishment for his own actions which could have been prevented. Cops look at it, well this fellow officer took ONE wrong option, but he has done so many good things, we should give him a break, right? Like I said, I watched the video about 10 times. That cop did not take ONE wrong option in handling the situation, that cop took FIVE. That cop did not have to kick her, that cop did not have to through her head against the wall, that cop did not have to punch her, not just once but twice, and that cop did not have to handle her by her hair.“What the HELL was he thinking?”

Think about it, compare them. An Adult against a Teenager. A Man against a Girl. A suppose highly trained officer against a regular civilian. An all he might get is a year in jail, if that, and stripped from his duties. But if a regular civilian man beat up a regular teenage girl, you know that man would be locked up away in jail so fast and spend a few years in there for assaulting a minor.

No matter if someone were to tell me, you need to hear and understand both sides of the story in order to truly speak your mind on the situation. To be honest, I don’t need to. I didn’t even need to hear the interview with the 15 year old girl. That video spook louder then words. There was no justice in that video, no matter how many time you try to adjust it. This was not the first time a cop has brutally assaulted a civilian with unnecessary force.“Does it matter?” “Will we see justice in the case?” -probably not!
