Giving some lip would be: “Blow me copper, I don’t have to tell you $h!t.” Or “Suck on this a$$clown.” Politely asking a cop who has detained you why they have detained you is not “giving lip”. Why you choose to misrepresent both the tone and content of what Brett Darrow said to Ofc. D!ckhead is beyond me.
And the cop was cordial for about 15 seconds and then proceeded to be an a$$hole for the next 10 minutes. So I guess I’ll compromise with you and say he is only 97.5% USDA graded a$$hole. Someone with that kind of a hair trigger has no business being equipped with a loaded firearm and a badge. I hope he can’t get even so much as a job as a meter maid from now on. In fact it gives me enormous levels of satisfaction to know that he will go from “Do you know how fast you were going” to “Would you like to supersize that”.
Post #8 in this thread has the transcript. I’ll just let everyone decide for themselves.
