Wrong house or not, if you give them a problem they're most definitely going to give you one.
Am I saying the cops in some cases aren't idiots? Of course not. It simply always strikes me as odd that so many want to argue the inevitable when it's, well... inevitable. Dick around in any way while a cop is doing his job, you either play it smart or end up on a video.

i hear ya. in watching/listening to the vid again, i didn't detect any belligerence in her voice.
going strictly by the vid, it could be assumed she was not familiar with how to conduct herself.
even so, it happens all the time, people are confronted by an officer and they do not know how to handle that. if they handle it wrong, even if due to naivete, there will be a consequence they will have to pay. more charges, resisting arrest, etc, whatever.
i don't blame those people for not handling the situation better, but i also do not blame the system for doling out a consequence to those people either.
