Also, because you state you don’t condone the police officers’ actions and then set about apportioning blame to the victim. You may not outright support the police but you sure are reducing their culpability by laying some of it on the victim. Stating that you ‘don’t condone’ something as a cover for victim-blaming is as disingenuous as starting a sentence ‘I’m not sexist, but…’.
Nobody should ever - ever - get that sort of beating even if they are resisting arrest. That behaviour simply shouldn’t be in the police officer’s toolkit, officially or not.
