The video doesn’t show on my phone. From your description it sounds somewhat excessive, but not outlandishly so.

Also I find it odd that decade-old events are being brought up. Yes, it’s pretty much a recorded fact that excessive force was used back then. DOJ forced the the SPD through a reform program, the result of that program should be judged to decide what if anything needs to be done at SPD. Otherwise it’s like this:

  SPD did bad things in 2010, they must reform!
  Ok. SPD Does reforms 2010-2020
  SPD did bad things in 2010, defund!

Every time a story predating consent decree comes up I interpret it as lack of newer stories, hence I conclude the reforms worked well.

Footage from the protests shows pretty extreme violence, and SPD shot and killed a black man in lower Queen Anne in May of this year after charging him with a dog. Yes, the suspect had a knife and was very loud, and may have been suffering from mental health or a crisis, but SPD definitely could have handled this differently.

I clicked on the link you provided and I couldn't locate anything incriminating. Can you provide the video and exact location of what you found objectionable?
