>> “A major risk to cops is the incompetence and poor gun handling of other cops.” <<

.
Very true.

What we need is to prevent law enforcement officers from wearing uniforms at any time. It would cause them to be thinking and analyzing every situation more completely.

They are not the military, and they should not look like, nor act like military. Their purposes are much different.

>> “How about allowing for the possibility that the woman was being unnecessarily disruptive and a risk factor? She drew attention to herself and kept interacting with the officer, when all he wanted to do was finish making his arrest.” <<

.
That is complete nonsense!

The interactions were all initiated by the brutish, obnoxious cop, who wanted to prevent the making of a record of his actions.

Fear them who fear the camera.

If he was anti-camera, why didn’t he arrest the other known person who also had a camera?

It might have to do with the fact the other person wasn’t filming from only 6 feet away.

Listen up foo head:

She was on the opposite side of a car that was parked in the street, and at least 15 feet away from the car too, so she had to be at least 22 feet away from the cop until he, of his own accord, came close to her. (in a very threatening, and inappropriate manner)

She was on the sidewalk, which makes her about 3 feet to the street. She backed up when the cop mentioned that little fact. If you include the width of the car in the picture, that puts her, at most, 11 feet or so away from the action.

You don’t have the right to stand where you want when somebody is being arrested, even on your property.
