Controversial Arrest of Pregnant Woman (video)

http://www.cnn.com/2015/05/28/us/barstow-california-police-video-pregnant-woman-arrest/
"An officer body cam video shows what the ACLU alleges was a wrongful arrest and the wrestling to the ground of an eight months pregnant black woman after she got into an argument with a white woman outside a school in Barstew, California."
"The city of Barstew, however, said police acted properly in the January arrest of Charlena Michelle Cooks of Barstew, though a charge of resisting arrest against her was dropped."
I have to agree with the Police on this one, don't make a phone call when you are being questioned by a cop, how stupid can a person be?

Is that a law? I doubt it. Being stupid isn't illegal either. And even if both were a law, that doesn't give the cop the right to summarily convict and sentence the lady to some form of violence for punishment.

It unnecessarily escalates an otherwise routine situation.

She was being questioned during an investigation, I would guess there are some legalities in that scenario but I don't know for sure.

I'm sure they could come up with something... I think a person should have the right to ignore the police unless they have a warrant or cause to place you under arrest. But to the cops not complying is cause to place you under arrest. And in this case, cause to rough you and your unborn up a little bit. Fuck the police. These people are scum.

I did. She wasn't a threat to anyone around her. She just didn't feel like she needed to give her name out to the police and i'm okay with that. She wasn't getting violent or out of line, she was just making sure the cop was operating under the correct pretenses. I bet you're the same person to scream SNITCHH when the same people give up info about drug dealers.

She was extremely confrontational and escalated a very tame situation, it's all on her.
Having a massive bad attitude with law enforcement creates a self-fulfilling prophecy, she achieved her's that day.

Apparently walking away and then making a phone call during a police investigation.

Believe it or not a bad attitude isn't grounds for arrest. Now, if the police actually had evidence of her doing whatever they were accusing her of, then by all means they should've arrested the fuck outta her. Unfortunately, it all sound like a bunch of bullshit to me.
Again, I do think a lot of these folks arguing with the police are asking for it. But that shit was definitely uncalled for.

Man the women is fucking pregnant.... You do't have to shove her on her belly on the grround like that. It's more than reckless. No pregnant women would put up a fight enough tto put her baby in danger.
Even if the arrest is justified, the cops should have had better judgement. Obviously pregnant, no weapons or threats, only a pphone call. If the cop had been just a little more diplomatic, the situation could have gone much better. Hell, there wasn't any damage on the lady's car or whatever she was bitching about

Why is there always some loud ass screaming "Do not touch me" or the like? When has ANYONE seen that work? Like the cop is just gonna be like "Oh shit she said I can't touch her, guess I better leave". Same with the cell phone shit. "Oh shit she's making a phone call, I guess I better go then.". What the fuck goes through these people's heads.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

She escalated a very routine and calm situation, no arrest or struggle ever had to happen, why did the other woman have no issues whatsoever?

I mean no, that's not the best way to handle the situation I totally agree. But there's no need to throw a pregnant chick on the ground belly first.
InB4 Pris says she deserved it.
