Yes, what's your point?
well um perhaps people should wait for more information before calling her a "maniac" as punching someone's window out before immediately beating the **** out of them isn't exactly considered polite behavior in its own right
But it is clear in the video that even after being PIT maneuvered off the road she tries to ram the police car and after two cars block her in she is still trying to push her way out. That could easily result in someone's death. The police officer subdued her without killing her, which he very well may have been justified to do.

Why do people that disobey the law, put others at risk, and drive cops on a wild goose chase feel like they're victims somehow? It's ALWAYS seems to end this way these days.
Obey the damn law. If the cops want to pull you over, pull over.
When you don't, you waiver whatever rights you had. If they blow you away, then that's what you get for failing to obey the law.
In these case, the cop punched her. Better than getting shot IMO.
I just grow tired of all these "victims." What about the potentially real victims? The cops, their families, the people she could have killed? This woman isn't a victim. She's an idiot that deserved an *** kicking and the loss of her car and license.

i don't really see how it's clear?

and though the video in archie's article mentions a second police officer using a taser to subdue wright in addition to davenport's punches, the article doesn't.
so. the car appears to be stopped. there are four officers surrounding the car. one breaks her window and IMMEDIATELY begins punching her, multiple times, in the head. a second officer uses his taser. the other two stand there yelling, aiming their guns at her.
given that the nature of her crime is still murky at this point, i'm not going to give the benefit of the doubt to the police officers. this seems excessive.

They do a great job of spinning that video. It is carefully edited to show exactly what they want it to show. I would like to see the uncut footage from the dash cam. From at least one angle it looks like the car is still moving back and forth as if she is pumping the gas pedal as the officer claimed.
For me the kicker is the witch-hunt mentality against the trooper. Notice how little time was given to the fact that the woman was driving a 3000 lb projectile that could have easily killed multiple people, that she purposefully evaded police when they tried to get her to simply pull over, that she led them on a chase that put civilian lives in danger on every street she drove down, and that she did not heed an officer's lawful warnings and still attempted to flee and possibly run over anyone nearby.
Noooo, she is just a cute little grandma who was driving 23 mph in a 50 mph zone until the evil horrible pigs jumped her unawares in her car and beat the crap out of her because they were bored.
Whatever, she deserves to be in jail.

Dude, the video shows her running from the police and ramming into their cars. She deserved what she got, regardless of age.
I'm not of the opinion that if you run from teh cops that they are justified in kicking your ***, but if they need to kick your *** to stop you from threatening innocent lives then I am not only OK with it, I expect it.
I don't want my police officers to be polite when trying to stop a criminal. I want them to be tough as **** and do what's necessary.
C'mon guys! Don't you know that this poor old lady is not responsible for her actions? Jeez, she was probably drunk and therefore unable to think clearly when the mean old cops ruffed her up. Besides, don't you know that people are not responsible for their own actions now days? Like the lady that was texting while walking through the mall when she fell into the fountain. Clearly that was somebodies evil plan to build a fountain right where she was going to walk, therefore creating an amusing youtube video.
(okay, I better mention that this post was all sarcastic before some moran gives me more negative reps)
