I'd just like to say that I'm SHOCKED that there's this much dispute over this. The woman didn't listen to the cops. Repeatedly. She was being placed under arrest for multiple charges. If a cop puts a gun in your face and tells you to do something, you do it. If he puts a taser in your face and tells you to do something, you do it. Tempting the cop just so you can prove a fucking point is ridiculous. I'm also shocked that Ripper is defending the black person in this story, who, as per other Ripper defendants, was in the wrong. Shocked, I say.
