If the officer would have pepper sprayed, tazed, wacked with his baton, slammed her to the ground, or pulled his gun on her, it would not have had as good an affect as the punch.
Agreed. The other methods are too impersonal to make a real impression.

Yes, I did enjoy watching the cop punch her, because it was the right thing to do at the time and she very much deserved it.
You can't just feel it was an appropriate action......
Rather you really enjoyed watching a female get punched in the face?
Does this thinking also apply to a boyfriend having an agrument with his drunk girlfriend who starts pushing him and he open hand slaps her?
IF not then why? Both incidence are cases of where a male felt threatened physically.....
I get your support of the officers actions................ I don't understand your enjoyment?
Yknot I agree it seems to me that thinkaboutit seems to really enjoy the fact that this girl got punched.....sometimes when I read the mysoginistic statements on this board I wonder why some left the organization......it truly would have been a paradise for them.....being Lord and Master over their woman and reminding her she is in subjection to them and he is her head......Just as when I read the society's publications and picked up on an undertone of disdain for women, I also get the same feeling when reading some of the comments on here......You know I have noticed that most people in our society will admit that racial prejudice exists and racial discrimination is a problem.....yet sexual discrimination seems to be the final frontier....people don't want to talk about it and admit it and then they don't want to take it seriously....anybody who uses the term"that bitch deserved to get punched in the face" seems to have some issuess......

Ynut......It was appropriate and most people agree she got what she deserved. I enjoyed it, because for once she was on the recieving end of justice. It will do her a world of good. Don't even bring up any other situation, because then I'll consider you an idiot if you can't tell the difference.
Meangirl.......you don't know me. so stay the hell out of this. That's all we need on this thread is another psychoanalytic idiot defending that girl's actions and claiming anyone that was glad that justice was served must have women submission issues.

How About It....
I grew up seeing abuse but not that level.
Punching people in the face is a level of violence that scares me.
Obviously you lived in a situation where it was more common, and your POV is reflective.....
I don't understand the need to call her a 'b' or to be so gung-ho about her being corrected in such a manner so it is confusing to me and seems overly cruel.
I am sorry ..........I just don't understand and it scares me.......
I don't wanna continue to knock heads with you, it really isn't my nature...(I am shocked I even held out this long)
I have never really ever saw someone get punched 'for real'.
Can we make up?
Yknot.........I've got no problem with you, actually like you, and would feel bad if I caused you any reason not to be enjoying this board. I have seen bullys my entire life both guys & girls. You are looking at her with the highest optimism. I am looking at her from experience of what it takes to help her. When I was a boy, a grown man punched me for doing wrong. It helped straighten me out. That officer may have changed that girl's life by punching her. If this girl is smart, she'll accept full responsiblilty for her actions and publicly cry for help to straighten up. If she plays her cards right,I think someone will sponser her and give her a free college education. I'd love to see her use this event to become a from the street success story.
I came from the streets having nothing, to today being wealthy & successful. I've got all kinds of stories and experiences of that kind of stuff and dealing with people. I once lived with full blown KKK on one side and a black pimp & his prostitutes on the other side. It wan't funny when drive by'ers would get the houses mixed up and shoot our house.
I remember changing sleeping postions to putting my head to the north end of the bed, because I figured a stray bullet in the foot would be better than catching it in the head.
Think About It
Police officers deserve to go home without being assaulted....by friggin Jaywalking teenage girls!! I find most teenagers today have NO RESPECT FOR ANYONE.....I think this officer needs a medal for his "Youth work."
Yeah I bet she's sorry.
Thinkaboutit no I don't know you and really don't care too. Anyone who calls someone else an idiot like you have done to me and thrives on violence I am glad I don't know.....
Boo hoo.....the poor girl beat up, bullied and robbed boys and a police officer punched her to keep her from assulting him any further. If you don't want to be called an idiot, then don't try to defend her crap and try to psychoanalyse and read more into other people when you don't know what you're talking about.
Think About It
I don't know you either, TAB.
You don't know me.
What credentials do you need for discussion, even a valid opinion?
Does it take walking up to a stranger who has been shooting at you and still holds the gun? Will that have value?
What if I have?
What if I disagree with certain of your assumptions in this discussion? Some, not all.
What if I've had a law officer grab me for a slight infraction? Do you need to know how great a wrong I did or how rough he was with me?
What if I feel he was entirely justified to have shot me? He easily might have and been excused for it.
I can understand why.
This girl-punches-policeman hit everyone in an emotional place for a lot of reasons. I think you have been dismissive and not engaged on the discussion with the wisdom that you might have because you think physical and verbal put downs win the day. Use your experiences and your ability to speak in a better way. It would help. And you have been rude to other posters.
P.S.my computer is the last thing to go in my move. I looked at the board and saw what the discussion had going. If you are interested in further discussion on this, I'll check in this evening. I have no idea whether you really discuss things or just dismiss conversations that don't concur with your own point of view.
