VIDEO: Did this Texas cop go too far?

This video is making it's rounds across the Internet and is causing quite a storm. It's of a Denton, TX police officer who allegedly let himself into an apartment where a party was happening without knocking or presenting a warrant.

Here is what the person who supposedly took the video wrote on YouTube:

So we were all at a party, having a good time, and this cop just busts in! He didn't announce himself, he didn't knock, he didn't present a warrant, and he didn't state what he was looking for. Then he called me a dickhead and threw my id on the ground.

I didn't get that part on camera, but i did get him ranting about how he hates having his authority questioned. Sorry, it's not great, but it's all I got.

WATCH THE VIDEO

So what do you think? Does the officer have the right? Were the party goers going too far? And what do you think about how the officer treated the guests? I know there are police officer's and Denton residents who read this blog, care to comment?
