my point is that you have no idea if it was out of line or not.. because you really have no idea what happened or why they had to use force against them.
you are assuming and you are reacting in a deeply emotional way, when you only have less than 1/2 the story.
that being said.. "kids in the car" has nothing to do with it. you are assuming the police did not have good cause to take him down.... but you have no idea. it's not like this guy was just walking by and a cop was drunk and decided to whack him in the head with his nightstick for no reason. there was a confrontation... the details of which, we do not know.
