Nonsense. "Because he could have been even MORE of a dick" is no reason to tolerate this.

Why are citizens allowed to be treated worse than inmates?
I would guess because people are grown ass men , and if you wise off to someone, in uniform or not , chances are they are going to respond .
We learned that shit in grade school. why are you shocked? The guys breaking his balls .
Im not saying he should act like that, but everybody has thier limits.

Let me ask you something, If the rules were not in place and the cameras weren't there Are you going to take shit from these inmates ?
I don't see why you would have to be abused by a bunch of idiots on a daily basis if you didn't have to be.
I don't see why you would have to be abused by a bunch of idiots on a daily basis if you didn't have to be.
Because I chose this job knowing I will be exposed to sometimes irate people and I have a responsibility to comport myself in a manner better than them to set an example.
I've been called much worse stuff on a daily basis.
Well at least you admit your crap is based on assumptions.
Cops or not, you just have a shit attitude. I’d never police with this mindset or deal with people in real life just in general from the point of view of “too bad you deserve it”.

Setting the example can be done both ways , If you don't answer the challenge, Your setting the example to other inmates that they can walk over you . If they perceive weakness they will take advantage of that. You must have had some training on officer presence before.
But Were getting off track .
Never has ignoring undesirable comments shown weakness.
The only people that say that are those that personally feel week and feel the need to show who is boss to make themselves feel better.

Actually I think he did, at one point the cop took something out of the car and threw it down on the pavement and then stomped on it. Pretty sure that would be considered a crime by anyone else.
I get paid by the tax payers, I do not work for them directly. I am "nice" most of the time when dealing with people within the scope of my duties.
I have not read any post here that said the actions of the officer were professional or that his attitude should have portrayed the way it was.
I have yelled similar to this in the past. Not a common thing with me, getting to old to allow this kind of screaming and yelling to occur.
This guy is absolutely not going to lose his job over this. He is sitting on a desk to appease the people. He is not in "trouble", he will not be suspended or fired. His bosses may talk to him, that is it.
Remember, all of this began because the punk kid decided to interfere in the duties of the officer. This officer did not go looking to jam this kid up.
The officer did not make the kid speed, he did not force him into interfering in the duties, the Cop did not force the kid to "break" the laws and the rules of his dope habit. The cop could have cited him for his driving infractions and the dope.
Maybe you are all correct, the officer should have allowed the driver to interfere in the Officers duties, after all, so many here believe here that all of the people are his boss.

He dumped the unlawful dope. But maybe you are correct, maybe he should have bagged it as evidence instead and arrested the guy. Call for a tow truck and impound his car. Make the guy miss his scheduled shift at his job and make his life horrible. Maybe.

Assumptions that are more than likely correct. Very few cops can support and defend the constitution unless they do not do the jobs that they were hired to do as command wants them to do them.
This guy put himself out there open to judged.

The guy had a marijuana possession exemption.
You assumed that he was arrested and his life was ruined, that was incorrect. Most of you assumptions are incorrect. You assume everyday almost that all of the LE on this forum break their oaths all of the time. Those assumptions are incorrect as well. You assume way too much.

A punch warrants defense. A finger gesture or words do not. In my job I have been called all sorts of things.

I turned off the video after he was cuffed. I admitted to such. Don’t know what you are talking about.
All the time? No. That’s Impossible. But when Tyrone with weed in his car and a .380 gets a gun charge, that’s an oath violation. When José and his 4 passengers get pulled out of a car and searched after being stopped for speeding rather than just being ticketed, that’s an oath violation as well. That happens everyday.
Sure some consent. Other don’t. Then the reasonable suspicion loophole that politicians with black robes gave them, makes the search happen anyway. Just the fact that carpets have to be upturned and glove boxes pulled out speaks volumes.
Gotta know how to hold your temper and speak down to them at the same time. It’s an art. When I started cops told you that your mouth mattered a lot more than your baton. Now it’s “you’re wrong no matter what, hide!” So they never learn.

What world do you live in? Is that what you tell inmates? The Samurai had a saying if you draw your sword to often, people will dread you, If you Don't draw it, they will take you to lightly.
Do I tell inmates that they need to let stuff go, because we see what happened when they wanted to "show their strength" to others?
Yes, yes I do.

This is all really a matter of a man losing his temper. Everybody here knows that its unprofessional. I think everybody agrees with that.
The kid was being a smart ass and the guy lost his cool . When I worked construction, This shit rarely happened . You would get your ass beat .
We had a kid come on the site to help up load up the trucks and He jokingly pointed the fire extinguisher at my foreman. My foreman told him . If you point that at me again Im coming over there , and Im going to punch you mouth. Where I worked, that wasn't a threat, It was a warning. That's exactly what would happen. So the kid laughs and sprays my foreman with it. To which my foreman walked over there grabbed him by the hair and punched him in the mouth 5-6 times .
The told me he was going to call the shop, I told him to put the phone down and take your medicine like a man. I said he told you he was going to punch you in the face and you did it anyways. WTF is wrong with you?
But anyways I guess I grew up different than most people.

Different world today. I pretty much stick to myself, and like minded people now. Keeps me happier.

That’s different. That’s internal shit. No different than a cop beating another cops ass for fucking with him in the locker room and gluing his lock shut.
But if a random kid was riding his bike by your construction site and flicked you off, you weren’t going to get in your car, chase him down, and beat his ass. If you did, then to would have issues like this guy.
Off track
Reminds me of when I was a kid. Glued teachers classroom door shut before class. He was seriously pissed. The good old days lol.
Ok carry on.
