Video: “Dude” incident in Baltimore (Cop vs. 14 yo skater)
http://hotair.com/archives/2008/02/12/video-dude-incident-in-baltimore/comment-page-1/#comments ^

A Baltimore city policeman is under investigation after this video surfaced. It captures an incident that took place at Baltimore’s Inner Harbor last summer. The Inner Harbor is where Baltimore meets the upper Chesapeake pretty much head on, and it’s both the city’s main tourist attraction and one of its heavier crime areas. Visible police patrols have cut down on the latter. The kids in the video were evidently skateboarding in an area where that’s prohibited, when the officer pulled up and told them to stop.

It appears that the officer told everyone to stop skateboarding and was in the process of leaving. However, one kid had his IPOD playing in his ears and probably didn’t hear him. After the kid is told again to stop skateboarding, he talks to the officer disrespectfully. The officer goes to confiscate his skateboard but the kid doesn’t comply, which leads to the officer forcefully collecting it from him. The kid obviously didn’t show any respect to the officer and deserved to get pushed around, while the officer obviously has some attitude (and probably authority complex) problems he needs to work out.

I kept waiting for the other 10 clowns to get out of that tiny car.

No, but it’s about the most inefficient way to get around!

Wow. What a flippin' psycho. If anyone ever deserved to go into the database of people who are too mentally unstable to have guns, it's Officer Cartman Rivera here.

Here’s another video of him: http://nothingtoxic.com/media/1203296500/Asshole_Cop_from_Baltimore_Shows_Up_in_a_New_Video

This guy is a turd. I’m all good with law and order, but all this knucklehead is doing is cruising the waterfront bullying kids.

The PD’s answer to the problem is to reward him with paid vacation, so now his wife and kids have to put up with his angry fat ass all day long. They can’t put him on desk duty during his suspension? What a joke.

Thanks for the ping. That was interesting. I hope that cop is kept off the streets after this. He’s dangerous.

So when we get pulled over for speeding, we should be dragged from our cars and beaten.....speed limits have been posted for years.....Even Cal Ripken would beat your stupid ass for speeding because bottom line is we all need our asses kicked for breaking the law, dont we. Especially when the cop out weighs us be 100 lbs or so. What an absolutely idiotic comment to make.....

I am sure you have never flaunted the law by driving over the speed limit have you? Did you get your ass kicked like you deserved?

I’ve watched you clowns deliberately scaring tourists at Inner Harbor for far too long. Of course you deserve your asses kicked - you’re simply pests.
