The cop slammed the car door in her face the first time she tried to open it. Also she had nothing to "resist" at that point. Supposedly she should have been the victim and they should have let her come out and talk before they arrested the guy. The victim should have gotten to tell her story before they even tried to interrogate the "assaultant".
I didn't think it was too big of a deal but after watching the video it makes me so mad. There are plenty of other REAL criminals out there and this cop is going to give other cops a bad name as being overzealous and a prick. I've met plenty of good cops but smartass ones that won't even explain why they want your ID aren't good ones. With as much Identity theft as is out there today you should be able to ask for a good reason to show your ID's. If you don't get a good reason then you should have the right to refuse. Grrr I hope those cops get made an example of. They need to at least be willing to explain WHY they want an ID. If you've done something illegal or even if it is suspected. The guy didn't even say that he had a report that there had been physical assault. He could have at least said that much.
