Is that how it works now? If you can give a cop a beat down the cop has the duty to retreat?
Bwaaaahahahahaaaaaaa! You should go on Leno with that.
beat down?
None of us can do anything but read INTO this story ... 'cause we got nuthin' else.
A cop makes a stop and loses his baton (and apparently is not hurt by it), reecovers the baton and (again .. reading into this thing) the kid walks away, or tries to .. the cop pulls his gun out and the kid sarcastically asked, "Oh ... so you're gonn'a shoot me now?"
Sarcasm is now an assault?
Look, I have great respect for LEO's, but this is a colledge town and we don't know which direction the kid is walking ... is he trying to get back to his dorm.
So if the cop took the kid down and gets him to the station ... what's the charge(s)?
Drunkin disorderly, resisiting arrest, assaulting a police officer and probably a couple of more.
ANYone that's ever been popped for a bullshit stop would analize this and think; "I should'a kicked his ass when he .... "
Of course we didn't and so now we have a bullshit charge.
The kid fought a bullshit charge and a bullshit cop emptied his gun into him
murderer
