Laws on public consumption are all over the place in the US. In Las Vegas, for example, you can carry your beer out of the casino or bar into the street and nobody cares. Try it in Colorado and the casino employees will stop you if they see you. If a cop sees you you will get cited. Note that for a bar casino, night club, it's a violation of their terms of license to let anybody carry alcohol out the door.
You don't need to buy them, you can just pick them up for free.

Well may be not entirely cost free!

Where I live one can walk down the street with a beer and 'cheers' the cops when they drive by.

Local news played the bodycam footage last night. She was definitely resisting, but the rent-a-cops need to bone up on submission techniques. The cam footage did not justify a head pounding.

Yeah, you get your cocktails in "to go" cups in Vegas and Reno as you stroll from casino to casino.

Here's the bodycam footage from YouTube:
NSFW, language and violence
She comes off like she'd had something to drink; right at the beginning she harangues some onlooker for daring to pay attention to what's going on. She swears a bit, refuses to provide the cop with her name, basically dares him to take her in, and then tries to walk away when he takes her at her word. At about 3:56 she clearly tries to shove him back, which is where the incident gets physical.At about 4:30 I assume he gets a knee in the nads; he would have been well advised to keep her on her belly. That's when he definitely goes all Dirty Harry on her.
Ah, and she introduces race into it calling him a white piece of effing trash. Takes one to know one!
ETA: When the cop who hit her is being debriefed he says she tried to kick them, then another cop chimes in that she actually did kick him. Then the first cop says he hit her a few times. So it does not sound to me like he was claiming to have gotten one in the nuts and I have stricken that line from my post.

Trust me, she is a great fit for Wildwood. That place has been trying to rebrand itself as some kind of doo-wap town for years. Nah, more like skid row.
Fun fact: I was once asked to clear an overgrown construction site in the Wild Hood. Got a weird contact dermatitis accompanied by hallucinations for a day or so. Turned out, one of the plants I had come in contact with was believed (by the doctor who treated me) to be a species of Belladonna, called Deadly Nightshade. Not native to the area, or continent for that matter. Witches/bikers next door to the property were growing it and it had creeped into the property I was clearing. It's a fun town.
