he was clearly trying to be in their way.
and looking at the video again...it was the third time when he got out the baton... first he tried pushing her away, then he hit her, then he got out the baton. clear and proportionate escalation. why she keep wanting to get close to him?? maybe she has a knife...maybe she has a bomb on her...who knows.
your dislike for the police is obviously clouding your judgement.

you could say i dislike agressive, violent, and racist protesters ... and then you would be right. however, you would have no reason to say that it has clouded my judgement...the guy was in their way and the woman continued to get right up to him when he is swarmed by other people as well(you can see him pushing at other people outside the view of the camera(interesting the camera moved away from them...in all likelyhood that event was staged for the camera). You claimed he was beaten, when he wasnt...demonstrating your separation from the reality of the incident. i would say you might be able to argue that the officer used more force than required on the man...but since you are in your own reality, it would be pointless.

Don't tase me bro
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.

Pushing her and the backhand were not excessive. Nevertheless, striking her with the truncheon was excessive. The officer should be reprimanded for it, and it appears as if he will be.

please prove that they were being violent and racist, aggressive maybe, but the response would still be extreme, but they werent violent or racist.
i really doubt it was staged, why would the women voulunteer to get beaten?
there is a video that shows him being beaten on ITN
