You act like this lady was a blooming idiot, obviously she is highly functioning and knows most right from wrong albeit probable from a 5th graders level. But my kids knew spitting was wrong at age 2 if not sooner. Being special does not mean you can do whatever you please w/ immunity.
That said, for the third time I will mention that I did NOT see a spit for anyone in the video. I did not even see a flinch from the officer which would of been a reaction to a spit. I am just stating what I would of done if such a scenario happened to me. I am not a police officer and have never played one on tv. I would like to see the unedited version of the video.
Other observations: If it came down to it, that lady officer would of been absolutely useless in helping handcuff the lady punched. Sometimes I think male officers have too much put on them when they have to get physical and lady officers are not much help. (Yes I am guilty of some PR crime here, sue me).
If you are liable to beat somebody almost to death for spitting on you, then you should never be allowed near a position of authority. Period.
