There’s a very simple equation:
The amount of attitude is inversely proportional to the leeway given.
This guy started it out bad and he was responsible for the outcome.
The cop tasered him where he stood because it’s inadviseable to ask the subject to move to a more advantageous position. The guy fell in the road because that’s where he stood after disobeying the officer. Pure and simple, the doofus chose the spot of his tasering.
Felony witness tampering?
Really?
Really, Really?
And he ordered the woman back into the car because he couldn’t control her actions and those of her doofus husband at the same time. Perfectly normal and acceptable.
He might have gotten a bit more leeway, but the doofus brought the attitude. So many, many bad choices by the guy.
Don’t you have any concerns about his safety decisions?
Gotcha. We stopped being being citizens a long time ago, apparently...The young guy pulled over immediately, complied with the license and registration bit but went way too far in asking what speed he was clocked at, where the sign was and what he was being arrested for..
Being a genuine law enforcement officer trumps the Constitution any old day, doesn't it?
As I said to someone else on this thread, like them your very attitude on this thread causes cops problems.
And yes witness tampering. He went back to the woman and tried to intimidate her into remembering the situation the way he wishes it went down. He is simply a criminal with a badge and the fact that you defend him speaks very poorly of you.
