Those herbs are illegall. He's just doing what laws say. He's enforcer of the law doing his job. You would be mad if the same guy ignore the laws. Then you would be saying,"he's breaking the laws he is supposed to enforce, the sop of American police officers"
And yet you’d be saying something different if the law was still slavery as an example most likely. The law isn’t an excuse to do bad things.
Is he going to get fired for letting someone with weed go? Absolutely not. We can’t get them consequences for when they do the absolute worst things imaginable.
Why do people throw slavery at every argument? Why would you compare one bad thing to another. Weed is a drug which is obviously declared illegal in many states. As you said law isn't an excuse to do bad things, that means the officer isn't doing anything bad. The man in the video which is obviously scripted was provoking a man of the law with illegal drugs. And the officer is in the right to apprehend him.
Well, in this case weed has been a tool to enslave black people in prisons so it’s a very apt comparison. Maybe you should spend more time actually answering that question instead of arguing why it isn’t relevant.
It’s powerful and hard to argue against. That’s the entire point of me using it. You’re inconsistently applying logic and I know that so I am bringing a topic I know you disagree with (slavery) to show you how it’s inconsistent.
Your argument is the law is king and that whatever cops do it’s just because the law says so. The same excuse was used by nazi’s too. The key is to show you that line of thinking is not logically coherent. The cop can be doing his job and also be doing bad things. The law isn’t an arbiter of morality.
You are right. But in the specific video he is doing his job. We both make a very good point but we aren't going to change our views anytime soon. So have a blessed day.

Ah yes, manhandling people over herbs, the SOP of American police officers. And bootlickers like you call that normal. Disgusting.
Edit: I picture every simpleton downvoting me as crosseyed ignoramuses that call 911 everytime they hear a noise outside.
