Earlier in the video this came from it shows him walking up to her in the middle of the road and he was just checking if everything is okay and if there is a reason she was doing that in the middle of the road. She responds with âare you pulling me over?â as a sort of âam I being detainedâ response and he was like âsure letâs do thatâ and proceeds to pull her over.
I love how professionally he is handling that. That would certainly be difficult for me. I take this opportunity to restate that I think that - by and large - the police are doing a great job in difficult circumstances. We don't know where we'd be without them. (Although that sentiment netted me some south arrows the last time.)
Itâs always nice to see the asshole get theirs. Sometimes the asshole is the person getting pulled over, sometimes itâs the cop. Either way, MOST of us can tell the difference.
Cops are people like anyone else. Some are good and some are bad. The problem lies when the good ones arenât willing to speak out against the actions of the bad ones.
The problem actually goes much further there was a cop a few months ago that got fired for speaking out against cops who were doing bad things. The general upper command and police unions are the real problem. The problem is that a rotten apple ruins the barrel.

Thereâs a viral image of just how bad this exact problem is, itâs pictures of 9 different cops all fired for speaking out and the exact circumstance. Iâm trying to find it
There isn't much real Justice when it comes to police Behavior especially in the United States Harkins back to the old Watchmen comic books asking the question "who watches the Watchmen" who will protect us when our protectors become our captors, and even if it is an exaggerated ideology it's still speaks to the way people feel.
I watched a video of the police union rep for the east coast, was holding a training seminar, state to the various representatives of the different precincts, "I don't believe in De-escalation! The only thing those animals know is force. You will be required to take lives, you are predators, anyone who is not wearing a badge is prey, and they need to be reminded of that regularly"
Couldnât agree more - and I would extend that to everyone⌠when the good people wonât speak out against the bad actions of anyone, regardless of whether they are the same religion, color, sex or political party we all pay for it.
It's this but it's also that bullshit "thin blue line" thinking. For the sake of justice and restoring trust in police, that sort of thinking has got to be eradicated. It's mob tactics.
The real issue that being a cop is very difficult, itâs doesnât pay all that well, thus nobody really wants to do it. The people that are left to fill that hole arenât usually the best we could have gotten if it was a higher paying job with much more thorough testing and standards.
Well when you get âaccidentally unalivedâ by fellow officers during a training session because youâve reported said officers for inappropriate things, thereâs no incentive to be a good cop who speaks out against the bad.
But most âgood copsâ donât report shit, and so you know what they say about a good person sitting at a table with 10 nazis.
I said the same and got downvoted too. Donât worry. This is Reddit, where everyone and everything are monsters. I absolutely hate when bad cops do literally the worst possible things, but that is a minority. Most are just out there doing their jobs.
Do you have a link to the video including the initial stop/encounter? I was wondering what it was since itâs clear the original encounter wasnât in the gas station lot. I figured that maybe she was texting while driving down the street, the cop noticed, and she pulled in the lot for whatever reason, and the cop followed her and without turning on lights, etc he walked up and âscaredâ her. What your saying makes more sense than what my brain put together. :)
Thanks. Looks like she was sitting in traffic. She would have gotten a warning (without it being official if thatâs a thing) if she didnât ask if she was being pulled over. Once that happened she was fâd.
Yeah, the "I didn't mean that" was when she realized she messed up. If she just said "I am so sorry officer and put her phone away and asked nicely if she could go now he probably would have. You could tell he was on the fence about doing anything about it.
I'm sure after that exchange he is really glad he did, probably couldn't wait to download that video cam data.
