The link you provided lacks clarity and the video lacks context. The woman was clearly resisting arrest. Apparently there are a lot of stupid people out there who don't understand how to interact with police.

when the police are violent, unprofessional, and makes a person fear for the bodily safety, what other way would you expect?

While clearly resisting arrest, she repeatedly insists the officers tell her why they are arresting her, which they are not obligated to do. Worst of all, after the woman's clothes become disarrayed, the officers ask her female friend to help her cover up and the friend refuses.

are you under the impression that cops can just walk up to anyone and tell them they are under arrest and we must comply?

Looks like her parents should have taught her how to act in public; but passively resisting is still resisting.

Asserting your rights to be left alone by the police is not resisting. If you do not peacefully stand up for your rights, they will be gone. Not just her rights, but all of ours.;

As I said before, the article lacks clarity and the video lacks context. Awfully convenient that we didn't get to see the events leading up to the arrest, don't you think? How can you possibly think you're in a position to determine the police were violent or unprofessional not having seen what happened before the arrest?

are you under the impression that cops can just walk up to anyone and tell them they are under arrest and we must comply?

I am not under that impression. Are you under the impression that what you described is what happened, not having seen it? Are you also under the impression that once the process of placing someone under arrest has begun, the police are obligated to stop and have a polite conversation with the person they are arresting?

you fail, so far.

We can agree to disagree on that.

You do not have a right to be left alone by police when you enter a business, act belligerently toward staff and refuse to leave when asked.

here is my experience regarding incidents like this. When the civilian is completely in the wrong, antagonistic or violent from the start, the police will happily release body cam footage or other such sources as proof that they acted accordingly......but when the cops actions are questionable or even overtly wrong, then body cams broke or weren't turned on. audio tapes are accidentally deleted, or some other shit that happens that doesn't show what the cops prior actions were.........so while it might be apathetically easy to accept the governments narrative or excuses, it becomes awfully convenient to ignore that the governments recordings aren't relevant in the big picture of things. Then I also have to take in to account the sub conscious mindsets of people who are sheeple to readily accept that government agents can become violent lawbreakers on their own part, all so said civilian can feel good about their government keeping them safe.
