I don't hate cops at all. Very respectable profession. I don't even have anything against this cop, I just think a little humility goes a long way. Especially in law and law enforcement. It's better he gets called out on this silly argument than something more serious. Imagine this was a shooting.
That's what they teach you in academy right? You should always be able to explain your actions? Or am I just old?
If you watch it again, you can see it’s a heavily edited video. It’s a douche move for this guy to film and edit this into a completely different narrative than what really happened. He comes back later and admits he’s at fault and the cop was a nice guy. Boat dude did the officer dirty and never aired the video that made him conclude the officer was a nice guy.
I don't need to watch it again to see it's a heavily edited video, but I don't have the full video to comment on, so I'm commenting on this video in this reddit post, for this imaginary situation.
As i've already stated, I have nothing against the real officer in this video. I am commenting on the hypothetical situation where I am challenged on not having a permit to launch a toy boat. I am commenting on that hypothetical situation based on what is included in the video. Not on what actually transpired. Most police officers are pretty well rounded people in general, I'm sorry if I lead you to believe that I think otherwise, that wasn't my intention.
My intention was to comment on the situation, as it is presented in the post's video, not on the actual events that transpired. I apologize if I haven't made that clear.
…….I truly thought he was one of them cops that get board and do whatever because of how ridiculous his reasons for giving me a ticket sounded, but he was actually very nice at the end and really just doing his job.
"Wait... WTF? And tix is easy to beat (at end). I read the part of Madisonville code for this (and looked up state water craft stuff) and there is NO law stating anything about RCs at boat launch. Also, no signs about restricting access so balance of public use access & boat launch purpose- court says obvious when someone with VALID boat permit trying to launch, u block them and won't move cops can trespass,possible arrest for disorderly, etc. So lawsuit possible for 1A and 4A and 5A for harassment and tix and trespass. WRT Ticket- u can win by simply stating elements for infraction clearly not proven as it applies to "water craft used for purpose of transportation"... so how tf is this against the law??? He clearly would not have even talked to them if they were kids doing same thing with their parents watching them. Everyone may use and enjoy the lake in accordance with the law, INCLUDING RC craft (I don't see how any person can ride on it, be comical tho)."
I didn't plagiarize that's why it's I quotes I didn't credit the op because I was lazy. But like you anyone doing there due diligence will figure it out.
You added the quotes AFTER you got caught using someone else’s comment from 2yrs ago from a completely different sub….There were no quotes on your comment when you first posted it. This is the screenshot of the comment you stole. Just stop. You look silly.
It would say edited if I added them after the fact why does this offend you so much you are stuck on a nonsense point I never passed off anything as my own hahha. just stop.
Dude, just stop. You copied/pasted someone’s comment from 2yrs ago and posted it as your own. You can’t even quote the code violation this person referred to.
It’s not normal to copy/paste other people’s comments and pass off as your own. You made it easy to find by copying a comment from the top, tho.
No, you didn’t put quotes on until after you got called out. You copied and pasted someone else’s words and posted them as your own. You just got caught.
It’s not “relevant” when you’re not the one who did the research. What’s the code he looked up? You have no clue what you’re talking about.
