    If I, as a teacher, responded to a less-than-compliant, and upset student by even lightly putting my hand on them I would be fired and charged that day. Police, if we are going to have them at all, need to be able to handle this kind of situation without resorting to violence. Period.

      Then we need to stop hiring conservatives as police. Normal (non-conservative) people don’t behave this way, cops or not.
