RE: Please Justify This Police Action For Me

Maybe if the kid suffered injuries when the cops physically moved her legs into the car (ideally in a way that’s no more forceful than absolutely necessary to get her legs where the rest of her body was), then maybe arguments from personal responsibility of the victim might have a place in this discussion. Point is, the cops’ response was disproportionate to the actual threat: an emotionally disturbed nine-year-old girl who’s already been handcuffed and put in the car and only has to get her feet there as well. I don’t know what circumstance would justify pepper spraying a nine-year-old girl (maybe if the kid from The Bad Seed ended up in a standoff with the cops and she ended up in a “cornered beast” situation?), but this ain’t it.

Not mine.
You're of the opinion that the cops don't bear full blame for pepper spraying a 60lb, handcuffed, emotionally troubled child, who was already in the car?
Boru Because the cop can never be in the wrong. It always has to 0% or 10% or 20% the cop can never be 100% to blame regardless of circumstance

I can't really see what was happening in the back of the car because the body cam keeps going up and down, but if the girl wasn't kicking the cop when she was sitting in the back of the car, then they could have handled it better. Attacking an officer is a really bad idea though. I know she's 9, but someone called her 60 lbs? She looks very fat to me. Heavier than many grown women.

From what I can see, she doesn't look that fat. Maybe that hoodie makes her look fat? And from what I can see of those legs, I can't see much movement that would indicate a kick.

And from what I can see of those legs, I can't see much movement that would indicate a kick. She looks probably around 130 lbs. As heavy as a grown woman. Look at her legs. They are huge/ very thick. A kick from a girl even under a hundred pounds could easily crack a grown man's ribs. She obviously has very f'd up parents who have been a terrible influence on her. She thought her mom stabbed her father, and it's abuse in itself to let any 9 year old child get that fat. The parents are killing the child slowly letting her get that fat.
I didn't see the child kick the cop in the back of the car, and if she wasn't kicking at that point, they should have been more patient with her. Maybe they didn't just want to shove her in there because they were afraid of injuring her legs. That doesn't mean they should have pepper sprayed her though. She may be the size of an adult, but she has the mind of a child, so you can't just treat her like an adult.

Any justification that works yet?
