Jaywalking shouldn't be a throw down on the sidewalk with handcuffs kind of crime.
Perhaps you lost your sense of freedom, up there among the yankees.

For myself, I would never leave home without ID (how would the police know who to call if I died?) nor would I jeopardize my own safety by plugging my ears so I can’t even hear traffic. (FYI - I didn’t like the nanny state and am glad to back in the land of the much free-er. Like I said - call me old fashioned...)
Nothing illegal about what the girl did - except jaywalk. (I’ve been stopped for jaywalking myself - no ticket because I listened to the cop!)
Yes, she was manhandled by the cops. maybe if she’d HEARD them, it would have all been avoided.
PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY is never out of style. That’s my point.
