re: #497 Dark_Falcon

Probably?! It’s utterly clear that stomping her was wrong. Why even insert the qualifier?

Because absent a thousand other factors, there’s a boot on her shoulder - not exactly her head - for less than a full second, and it doesn’t really look like there is any weight there.

Further, the “concussion” claim is pretty thin. The usual diagnostic patterns - “slurred speech”, headache/dizziness, confusion, nausea, and so on - are mostly subjective and something the doctors ask a patient to self-report. Absent someone actually having MRI’ed her skull for swelling, the claim is hard to take seriously, and she receives a harder shock to the head when she’s put down to the ground and restrained than she does from having a boot on her shoulder for less than a second.

Is it rude? Yes. Was it needed? No. On a 1-10 scale of violence, where does it fall? Maybe 0.25 at most.
