The story continually refers to “her” and “she”, as though it were a female officer doing all of this.

I didn’t see a female in the video, is there another one? LOL

I’ll accept the review board’s decision. It was just a bad decision - not a cop-hate-crime. I still think, after two-turn-offs, it looked like he was luring a cop to a secluded place. But, I don’t think female cops are very effective anyway.

We didn't see what happened prior to the tape. What was the dad doing driving his 3 kids in those conditions? We don't have the full story.

Letter of reprimand? Is that all? Typical Minnesota lack of professionalism. LEO’s here in Texas (I’m visiting family at this time) have seen this video, and have heard other tales about Minnesota. Minnesota cops are considered a laughingstock down here.

Seriously? I hadn’t heard that before.

The only story I’ve heard was from a PI in Florida who told me, that from his excperiences and anectodally, that Minneapolis cops are corrupt and thuggish.

From my own personal experiences, if you ever wanna see law enforcement that behaves in an asinine, heavyhanded or capricious manner, you should head to Florida.

Just about any part of Florida too.
