Many of you may have heard about the controversial video taken of a Seattle police officer who punched a teenage girl. If not, here ya go. It was taken on a cell phone so try not to puke from all the moving around...
I've been a little bit surprised by some reactions to the video. Many people I've been hearing talk about it agree that the girl who got clocked shouldn't have interfered (that part wasn't the surpising part). Also, if you notice, they jaywalked directly under an overpass built over the street to keep people from getting hit on what is a crazy busy street in Seattle. So that shows they're kind of dumb. But I'm a little disturbed to see people "liking" the officer's actions on MyFace. Um, really, he sucks so much at restraining a teenage girl that he has to punch her in the face? They need to teach those officers some basic restraint techniques. I'm not saying he should be fired or anything, but really, I don't like seeing women get punched in the face. Call me old-fashioned.

Call me old fashioned! I think it's an even bigger issue that it even escalated to that point.
(she could have easily avoided the punch by the way, his goal was not to punch her but to stop her from interfering and pushing him).
