With use of force it doesn't matter if the techniques were ones we're used to it matters whether they are warranted by the situation. One isn't usually obliged to push crowds down the street. Using correct technique in the wrong situation is just as bad as using excessive force when using force is warranted.

- SpicyLemonZest 6y agoAgreed, but I think this makes a very strong case against long lists of videos that look bad as a form of argument.
