Most progressives/liberals/human beings don't blame the victim for police overreach. She was asshole, to be sure. But please don't double down on your "blame the victim" BS by saying "but I was only saying what others are saying!"

What truly makes people upset here is that she was awarded money for being an asshole. Again...that was the cops' fault for arresting her for hurting their feelings.
