Was it right for a Seattle cop to punch a woman in the face during a dispute over jaywalking? [VIDEO]

A bystander caught a heated dispute between a cop and two young women on video. Officer Ian P. Walsh was attempting to arrest 19-year-old Marilyn Levias for jaywalking when the woman's 17-year-old friend tried to intervene, according to the Associated Press. The officer responded by punching the 17-year-old in the face. Was the dispute with the teenagers handled appropriately?

    She assaulted a police officer. She is a fucking idiot. Not only did she get hit, but probably has some felony charges, now. That was not her place to get involved and she needs to stop putting her now broke nose where it doesn't belong.

      It's not illegal to be a fucking idiot.
