The thug should have pulled over. “I didn’t know, bro” isn’t an excuse.
Thug? Did you even watch the video? The kid obviously thought the cop was directing traffic.
Then after he needlessly cuffs the poor kid and puts him in the squad car, he goes back and bullies the girlfriend who is crying her eyes out.
That cop is a first rate asshole.
BS!
1. The kid was just that a kid - inexperienced and not wrong in his actions
2. The cop was over the top angry and not courteous. Cops “Protect and Serve” and when he saw that he was dealing with ordinary kids - not druggies, not mouthy punks - he should have recalibrated.
3. The cop never told them what he originally pulled the over for - they sure as hell weren’t speeding and the cop already had a car stopped in front of him.
Cops have a responsibility to control themselves with the public.
