Where are FedDC and 'ol Depity Dawg to straighten all you naysayers out?
Kid with the camera was kind of a tool. So let him be a free tool. Cops were way out of line and pulling shit out of their asses (poorly). Instead, tax monies will be wasted, time will be wasted, some egos will be hurt, and resentment will be born from this (or at least bubble higher) when it gets thrown out because everyone can clearly see what a fucking joke the entire situation is. That cop will learn nothing, go back to protecting and serving people under whatever "law" he seems to follow in his apparently not-so-quick brain... And he'll run into another one of these people and start the tax wasting cycle over again. |

I mean Im not for localities having frivolous statutes that allow for arresting for petty things (threatening gesture) or think "resisting a lawful investigation" isn't BS if you don't monitor how the cops enforce such a law. This video just seems to me to show a much better light on police behavior than 99% of these youtube videos do. He didn't blow his stack or over use force. He was patient and let the kid dig his own grave. My guess is if the kid didn't start ranting and raving and showed the same amount of patience as the police officer, the Sgt would have never called for back up and there would have been no hand cuffing or arrest. Im not going to be too harsh on the cop, name calling etc, for enforcing a petty law, that's his localities fault for having it in the first place. Since we never saw what the kid was doing, or not doing, that constituted a threatening gesture in the cops mind, we really don't know if the officer was using the law just to fuck with the kid or not. The only thing the video shows me is that the kid acted like the much bigger asshole.

Not a fan of videos like these* as they normally don't show what happened before hand.
That said. If you got a legal reason to arrest and plan to do so, then do it and be done with it. If you don't have cause to arrest then don't and don't make something up. *Videos from people who have recording before an encounter but you only see the contact, mostly trollers. |

Thing is, if you arrest someone because you suspect they voted Republican in the last election, it doesn't matter if you are polite. And doing so will probably get the arresting officer called some insults. And those insults might well fit. The fact of the matter is there are LAWS and court cases about what a person can be 'detained' for. Simply 'acting suspicious' isn't enough. (Acting in a suspicious manner consistent with someone trying to illicitly sell drugs = yes, acting in a suspicious manner consistent with committing a burglary = yes. But there needs to be a suspicion of doing something illegal.) What I think needs to happen is we need to get more cases on the books that clarify when detention is allowed and when not, and this would start removing qualified immunity from officers (my general understanding, but I am not a lawyer) because it would remove that critical leg of 'while the officer was wrong and the action wasn't really illegal, the officer isn't an expert on all laws and so it was an honest mistake so he is immune from civil suit' compare to the fact that while an officer isn't an expert on the law EVERYBODY knows you need a warrant to enter (barring a very few circumstances) and so entering without one isn't an 'honest mistake'. |

It looks to me like Sgt. Snowflake here is trying to use threat of arrest (and a TASER) as an intimidation tactic, and then just gets flustered and doesn't know what to do when it doesn't work.
Just like the kid (or anyone being arrested), needs to STFU and fight their battle before a magistrate/judge//jury/whatever, the cop needs to just STFU and act. If he believes has enough justification to force compliance or to make an arrest, he needs to STFU and do it. I think it's the camera that's making the cop restrain himself. And the bottom line is (for cops AND everybody else), if you wouldn't do it on camera, you probably shouldn't do it. |

1. If the cop saw the kid making threatening gestures to one or more passersby, the cop had RS for a detention.
2. The cop does not have to articulate his RS for the detainee. 3. The purpose of the detention is investigation to determine whether or not a crime was committed or attempted. 4. Detention on RS is NOT VOLUNTARY. One needn't make statements during the detention/investigation, but must otherwise cooperate with the officer, e.g., open/empty your hands, stand here, et c. 5.

Not all cops are bad, but enough are that this shit keeps showing up on YouTube and liveleak. Just read some of the TBL responses here. They've defended everything from murder to child molestation, just because the perpetrators had a badge. Defended child molestation? Don't think I've seen that one. You haven't. Typical GD revisionism. |

And this is where I have a problem. If you are going to enforce any laws, you had better know them better than your hand knows your dick. Would you let bus boy perform brain surgery on you? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Umm outside of the cop saying the word illegally what exactly makes him in the wrong here? He seemed about as polite and respectful as one could expect. The kid will have his day in court and the cop will have to prove the charges. Calling them pigs and homos aint going to help his case. Seems to me everything the Sgt did was derp. I really can't blame the kid. I'd be pissed as hell. Of course we don't see what the guy did (threatening jester). Maybe he did do something, who knows but from just the video the Sgt is an idiot. Emeoba, you are right that the cop was polite. Thing is, if you arrest someone because you suspect they voted Republican in the last election, it doesn't matter if you are polite. And doing so will probably get the arresting officer called some insults. And those insults might well fit. The fact of the matter is there are LAWS and court cases about what a person can be 'detained' for. Simply 'acting suspicious' isn't enough. (Acting in a suspicious manner consistent with someone trying to illicitly sell drugs = yes, acting in a suspicious manner consistent with committing a burglary = yes. But there needs to be a suspicion of doing something illegal.) What I think needs to happen is we need to get more cases on the books that clarify when detention is allowed and when not, and this would start removing qualified immunity from officers (my general understanding, but I am not a lawyer) because it would remove that critical leg of 'while the officer was wrong and the action wasn't really illegal, the officer isn't an expert on all laws and so it was an honest mistake so he is immune from civil suit' compare to the fact that while an officer isn't an expert on the law EVERYBODY knows you need a warrant to enter (barring a very few circumstances) and so entering without one isn't an 'honest mistake'. And this is where I have a problem. If you are going to enforce any laws, you had better know them better than your hand knows your dick. Would you let bus boy perform brain surgery on you? So since you are a woman and don't have a dick then you shouldn't comment on enforcing laws? Is that what you were trying to relay to us? |

Once the cop says you are being detained and are under arrest, does he have any legal obligation to tell you right then and there what you are being arrested for? Nope. Don't have to read you your rights either. I remember one old cop that arrested a guy who asked him, "Are you going to tell me my rights?" The old cop said, "Yeah. Shut up." |

Quoted:
1. If the cop saw the kid making threatening gestures to one or more passersby, the cop had RS for a detention. 2. The cop does not have to articulate his RS for the detainee. 3. The purpose of the detention is investigation to determine whether or not a crime was committed or attempted. 4. Detention on RS is NOT VOLUNTARY. One needn't make statements during the detention/investigation, but must otherwise cooperate with the officer, e.g., open/empty your hands, stand here, et c. 5. Failure to cooperate (except by silence) in a RS detention is resisting an officer, which is an arrestable offense. 6. The cop was probably legally justified in cuffing Junior when Junior said "I'm not putting the camera down." View Quote In before you are called a bootlicker. |

I had critters tearing up my lawn. I traced their tunnels to a place where they appeared to surface. I built a cage around the hole at the surface, and had my 5 year-old stand watch over it with a BB pistol. My neighbor thought the setup was hideous and that my kid shouldn't have the gun. We argued vigorously. The neighbor tried to shove my kid out of the way and to kick over the cage. While no cops were involved, I did I defend the child mole station.

I like the look and gesters of the female officer, she was all and at the sgt's behavior she knew it was stupid and wrong View Quote And this is exactly the problem with all the other cops that are not POSs. It was an OBVIOUSLY retarded situation that did not warrant an arrest, but since ratings reviews are probably next month and she doesn't want a "not a team player" blemish on her file, she went along. How come I never see the partner step in and say something in any videos when you see a cop being abusive? No, not all cops are bad/crooked, but the ones that stay silent are just as guilty when they stand idly by while this shit takes place. Following orders? I thought the Nuremburg trials proved that to be an invalid defense. |

She makes contact with the guy crawling over the fence first then she walks over to the Sgt. |
