It would have been easier if the cop went after illegal aliens. The girls are guilty but I hope this jaywalking enforcement was worth the trouble he’s in now.

Don’t act trashy and your chances of being punched by a cop magically go way down.

...but, not nearly as close to zero as I'd like.

Was a time when the night stick or sap would have made short work of that woman.

...so I betting this was a career ending event for the officer.

I hope not. I'm not sure the guy handled this in the best way possible, but anything that went wrong was the fault of these "ladies".

She took the first swing from what I heard reported. She did look like she could kick some tail and was a handful to try to control, but jaywalking, come on.

As far as my city goes, we could do with a huge cut to the police department. This same cop that is involved in this incident has the same mindset, maybe they are trained to have the mindset, that it is not their job to dive into a situation that could end with them being killed.

Example, Columbine, when the Chief of Police stated flat out that it is not a cops job to dive into a dangerous situation that puts his life at risk. Therefore there was no foul in their standing outside of the school listening to the gun shots of two demons killing off children inside the school.

As usual the media could be counted on not to point out that the target of these two trench coated killers were Christian believers.

So the only conclusion I can come to is if a cop won’t show his face until the blood is on the floor, he has no business punching a teenager in the face, that he would never enter a school to save from a killer, for her crime of jaywalking.

That big beast of a 17 yr old deserved what she got, though it might have been better if she'd been tased, bro.

Either way, the FAR-LEFT, afro-centric, emotional, chip-on-their-shoulder crowd, including racist race-card playas, Jesse and Al, will complain NO MATTER WHAT.

They did not ‘unknowingly’ violate the law.

They were doing it on purpose, because they thought the officer was ‘busy’ and that they could get away with it and show their friends how ‘cool’ they were.

The were ‘shoving it’ in the officer’s face.

Much like racing through a construction zone because you see the radar cop already has someone pulled over. To hell with construction workers, show everyone how cool you are.

You think the officer lost his cool?
You should see what it’s like when that really happens.

Lost his cool is different from went ballistic. :)

I suppose the English would think rain is great since London is a wet place. But I want to be out in sunshine, working on my roses. And they don’t like a lot of rain.

On a completely unrelated note…who put the keyword “yesterday” in? What possible use is there in that? LOL!

I have no problems with cops but I get pulled over way to often being a black man in the suburbs!

6 times in 8 weeks with no tickets!

Can't do that. Seattle is a "sanctuary city" and if he reported an illegal alien to the authorities, or if he busts someone for being illegal he can be fired.

The girls are guilty but I hope this jaywalking enforcement was worth the trouble he’s in now.

Sad but true... That intersection has a MAJOR problem with jaywalking as it is a pair of 5 lane major arterials intersecting at oblique angles, and it's right next to a school as well. It's an intersection that has a real problem when people jaywalk as it backs up the only two arterials through the Rainier Valley. It's a dangerous place, and with a big overpass there's no excuse to jaywalk.

Yeah. He should have let them go when they resisted and one girl started grabbing him.

More than guilty. They were DARING the officer to stop them. They did it right in front of him, because he was already ticketing someone else.

I will never understand why white people would live in - - let alone work in - - concentrated Democrat parasite nests (”cities”). Man, I avoid those urine-smelling, trash-blowing-down-the-street, step-over-the-homeless places like the plague, and that video is Exhibit One.

The amount of time it took this Cop to control his suspect is completely unacceptable. As he fumbles around he does manage to attract attention, but no one approaches in a threatening manner.

"It was her actions, not her skin color, that got her in trouble."

Maybe. No one knows what was in this cops head. Seattle cops have been getting loads of ink lately about racist commentary, and taking cheap shots at handcuffed suspects.

Judging by the girly punch he threw, I'm guessing he's used to hitting a restrained suspect.
