# have you seen the video?
the giant copper made a cold, calculated decision to hit her. there's no excusing it. he can hardly have been scared given he was twice her size. thuggery in uniform, pure and simple.

# I've seen the video of a woman shouting and generally being agressive at a policeman
Why would you shout at a policeman with a weapon if you don't want any trouble?

# I think you might be mistaking
a policeman with a gorilla, or a dobermann. one is a uniformed officer of the law, the other an aggressive animal.

if she was really breaching the peace, they should have put the cuffs on her. but a blow with a baton is, as they say in that RAF sketch, assault.

# This.
It was akin to finding the biggest guy in the pub, going up to him and informing him that you've had his mum, and she that she was shit, and then whining that the bad man hit you.

# again, there is an important difference
a police officer is not "the biggest guy in the pub". and it's a false analogy, because in this instance the big guy can hit the petite femme with impunity, but she can't hit back because he's a boy in blue.

and EVEN the biggest bloke in the pub, pretty much any pub, wouldn't hit a woman half his size. he'd glass her boyfriend instead.

so that's an insult to bar-room bruisers everywhere. and a cop-out for the copper.

# The analogy still stands
Its generally not advisable to go around shouting at people larger/better armed than you.

It's a pretty good rule of thumb.

# She also went back for more
after he'd slapped her in the face. Now that's just stupid.

# you are a twat
if the police are telling you to get behind the line and you hurl abuse at them then they will hit you - only a complete retard would think otherwise

# interesting opinion...
...however, you would expect to be arrested, not hit.
