I hope this doesn't count as qualified immunity.

She stopped him from changing a tire because he was 'suspicious'. She deserves prison for assault, battery, wrongful arrest (there's no RAS, regardless of what she found after) and a hate crime.

Cruel acts by a human. Makes one wonder all of the atrocious acts that aren't on video.

If you think it's bad out there now, just imagine all the atrocities they gleefully committed and got away with prior to camera phones being everywhere. I'm not saying it shouldn't be better. I'm just saying it is likely better than it used to be now that everybody is recording everybody else all the time.
