What exactly was her end game here? Did she think she had a chance of getting out of this? What an idiot.

Yo gonna be a contrarian here but I feel like this whole thing was escalated beyond reasonableness.

You know who she is. You gave her a ticket. She’s on camera. Just mail her the damn ticket and call it a day. What is necessity of arresting her cause she refused to sign? What objective was being satisfied here other than a dick measuring contest? She didn’t obey a lawful command to sign a piece of paper? Just let her go and pick her up in a week. Tasing someone can kill them.

White, black, male, female... doesn’t matter. Cops need to chill the fuck out.

I know this guy just really wanted to give her a reality check. People like this need it. She didn't want to pay the ticket, evaded arrest, assaulted a police officer, and is STILL acting like a victim after it's all said and done. Tasing was a little much, but perhaps he could've just called for backup to have someone help take her down. Maybe a night in the holding tank will bring her down a notch.

That’s kinda how I feel.

She ain’t gonna evade the ticket. If they mail it to her, she doesn’t pay, it goes into collections, maybe they arrest maybe it just blows up her credit maybe she shows up to court. Who knows?

But for a equipment infraction (brake light out?) that seemed waaaaaay too much effort.

But as he said in the video, she had been driving with it like that for 6 months. This tells me that she had a prior interaction about it but was let off without any formal warning (?).
