Assaulted him!!! I saw in the video he was grabbing her wrist and she was twisting off, then she pushes him *away* and he strikes. She is pushing him away, repelling *his* attack, that does not sound to me as if she is *assaulting* him. BTW, don't they teach you nothing at police academy? She's got thin wrists and small fingers, if you know how it's easy enough to get hold of a couple of fingers or apply a lock at her wrist. But I guess they'd rather train you at punching and shooting. Don't they. > he moved to the next level, which is appropriate.

I guess that if you were a border patrol thug you would also shoot a 14yo boy in the head because he threw a stone at you. Wouldn't you.
