Firstly, please quit YELLING at us. Secondly, you are simply wrong. The real POS (that would be the drunk, disorderly, resistive arrestee) will sue the city and will be given $50,000 or less and told to go away, which he will because if a civil jury were to hear and see all the facts of this case he would be lucky to get awarded enough to pay his attorney. Just a brief question for those of you so quick to find blame on the police for putting an end to this drunks engagement in fisticuffs at a location crowded with innocent citizens trying to have a good time. Would you rather this drunk get into a fight and someone get punched and die similar to the recent Butchertown incident or would you rather the police use the necessary force to put an end to this behavior without an innocent citizen or police officer being injured?
