Brew Commentary: Police Officers Bodyslam 80 Year Old Woman

Now ok, I'm sure everyone has seen this by now, but I can't help but wonder about the mentality of police officers. They have a job to do and I understand that many people leave little room for them to make concessions, but an 80 year old woman???? Ok she had a knife on her, so fine she could have potentially been a threat if her psychosis got the better of her and she ended up hurting someone, but do you really slam an 80 year old woman down on concrete?? Hmmm, somehow I think not.

What has to be going through your head as you're slamming an elderly woman down to the ground and busting her head open??? Surely you cannot feel like you saved the day by doing this. This is just too much.
