-- this kid is a professional agitator. this is not his first video. he drives around looking to get messed with and give an attitude.

You ever consider that he [or others] had been 'messed with' before?
-- Cops that mess with people are on the way out, thanks to recorders, and the 'agitators' they enable. -- And rational people won't miss that type of police work.

Why are you address the real issue..

It is Legal for LEO to lie to use subtrifuge that means the Officer was no doing anything but being offensive to our sense of right and wrong.. He was not breaking any law..

Address that problem and you can get to the root of things.

Firing the guy who did not falsely charge the kid is wrong.

All it will do is result is Officers being more slick.. Placing more people in “Protective Custody” or use other more aggressive techniques to gain compliance..

So the next kid that does not answer will get pulled out of the car thumped and arrested for X...

It is easy to triumph up a cause for arrest..

At the same time we want Officers to be vigilant and to be inquisitive.. The other possible result is for Officers to just ignore anything but gunshots and bloody screams..

Firing this LEO was wrong because he did nothing wrong as the law is currently written.

I don’t see the value in his removal..
