I just explained why we can make a judgement without the context and you're there not addressing anything I said. You haven't shown why we need to care about the context.

So if this is the case, why is the video cut in such a selective way? And why is she tackled down by half a dozen policemen afterwards?

Don't know, don't care. Probably to declutter the video. Again, the only thing justifying such an action would be a credible threat of death or injury that he couldn't disengage from, and we can plainly see that was not the case, because we literally see him fucking disengaging right after. Context is only necessary to resolve ambiguity, and there is nothing ambiguous here.

With the exception of those that commited criminal offenses. Like attacking policemen.

Well forgive me for not trusting the words of riot police out of all people.

But in this form, the evidence just is too thin.

We can see an instance of assault by a police officer on video but it's "just too thin," right...

You haven't shown why we need to care about the context.

Why we need to care:
With context, the video might be sufficient to raise a charge against the policemen by the state prosecution.
Without, it is basically worthless.
