I saw that video and I agreed with her since the officer’s “reason” for the traffic stop was that she’d “crossed the double white line” which was painted inside the parking lot...on private property.
She had cause to worry for her safety and the fact that the cowboy didn’t call another officer to the scene as both back up and to make the woman feel better speaks to his lack of common sense.
Now the idiot is on video being an idiot and his department is going to have to pay out a settlement.
I’ve been told that the cops can’t even write a ticket on private property like a grocery parking lot. What was he even doing trying police a parking lot?
A resisting charge is slapped on just for fun and any 'failure to' or possible 'reaching for' can make an officer 'fearful' and you can lose your life.
Social workers are focus challenged. They are all over the road.
Arrest all social workers and put them in concentration camps. Okay that is extreme. But they will put us in camps, so better them before us.
Serious, crossing double lines is dangerous to others. No sympathy here. Some laws work.
Agree. Cop was out of line, with a chip on his shoulder. Ought to be fired and sued. The woman was not a threat to the cop. Instead of being called peace officers, some should be called assault officers. Because some cops are out to bust heads and not to preserve the peace. Makes it bad for other cops.
