Austin, TX has seen a 250% increase in pedestrian fatalities (http://austinist.com/2011/10/27/stop_jaywalking.php) so the police started targeting pedestrian enforcement.

Recently they attempted to stop this chick after she crossed on a red. She refused to stop so they handcuffed her, at which point she goes into a 5 year old's screaming fit. News outlets pick it up and make it like we should feel sorry for her because, hey, reasonably hittable blonde. Comments section is full of white knights, speculation that the cops might be rapists: http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/02/21/austin-police-drag-jogger-to-car-screaming-after-jaywalking-without-id/

I'm no cop apologist but it's pretty clear from the pictures that there's no brutality here, just a bunch if disaffected betas attempting to do their job and one gal throwing a tantrum.
