September 30, Philadelphia Puerto Rican Day parade.
2 people in the crowd appear to throw water on a group of officers.

One of the officer's reaction has drawn criticism and claims of police brutality.

A woman in a black T-shirt, Aida Gusman, 39, a domestic worker and mother of 3 from Chester, Pa. can be seen throwing water or possibly a silly string in the direction of a group of police men.

One of them comes after the woman and punches her in the face without warning.

The force that was used knocks the woman to the ground, where she is handcuffed by the same officer.

no offense to her but what did she think was going to happen

That was not enough for him to punch her like that. Just because he got his shirt wet with water was not justified.

What a complete and utter twatwaffledouchecanoe.

That was excessive.. but fuck her. She started it. Hahaha lets spray shit at the cops. he could have handled it better, but so could she. Like Zero Pulse said "what did she think was going to happen"

[Kanda444]

a cops job is to serve and protect... not lose his mind just because some silly bitch got him wet. he wasnt protecting himself, there was no threat from her... he was just a dickless asshole with an anger issue and a power complex.

Why is it that the cops are the only ones expected to play by the rules? I don't know exactly what law says "don't spray shit at people you don't know, especially a cop who is "protecting and serving"" but i'm pretty sure there is one. This silly cunt broke it and she got an excessive retaliation... cry me a fucking river. Know how to avoid an excessive retaliation?.. don't provoke one by initiating an exchange.
